Color profile: Disabled Composite Default screen Safety Information For Wireless Handheld Phones Read this section before using your PCD2000A cellular telephone. Exposure To Radio Frequency Signals Your wireless handheld portable telephone is a low power radio transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it receives and also sends out radio frequency (RF) signals. In August, 1996, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for handheld wireless phones.
Color profile: Disabled Composite Default screen Driving Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless telephones in the areas where you drive. Always obey them. Also, if using your phone while driving, please: Give full attention to driving — driving safely is your first responsibility. Use hands-free operation, if available: Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions so require.
Color profile: Disabled Composite Default screen Posted Facilities Turn your phone OFF in any facility where posted notices so require. Aircraft FCC Regulations prohibit using your phone while in the air. Switch OFF your phone before boarding an aircraft. Blasting Areas To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone OFF when in a “blasting area” or in areas posted: “Turn off two-way radio.” Obey all signs and instructions.
