H BLUETOOTH Bluetooth® technology connectivity enables wireless connections between electronic devices, like between your phone and a Bluetooth® headset (sold separately). Since devices with Bluetooth® connectivity communicate using radio waves, your phone and the other device do not need to be in direct line-of-sight. The two devices only need to be within 10 meters (30 feet) of each other. The connection can be subject to interference from obstructions such as walls or other electronic devices.

Driving safety Talking on the phone while driving is extremely dangerous and is illegal in some states. Remember, safety comes first. Check the laws and regulations on the use of phones in the areas where you drive. Always obey them. If you must use your phone while driving, please: • Give full attention to driving. Driving safely is your first responsibility. • Use hands-free operation and/or one-touch, speed dialing, and auto answer modes. • Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call.
H S�AFETY INFORMATION FOR FCC RF EXPOSURE WARNING! Read this Information before Using Precautions In August 1996 the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the United States with its action in Report and Order FCC 96-326 adopted an updated safety standard for human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC regulated transmitters. Those guidelines are consistent with the safety standard previously set by both U.S. and international standards bodies.
that any health problems are associated with using wireless phones. There is no proof, however, that wireless phones are absolutely safe. Wireless phones emit low levels of radiofrequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while being used. They also emit very low levels of RF when in the standby mode. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue), exposure to low level RF that does not produce heating effects causes no known adverse health effects.
research programs around the world. The Project has also helped develop a series of public information documents on EMF issues. FDA and the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA) have a formal Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) to do research on wireless phone safety. FDA provides the scientific oversight, obtaining input from experts in government, industry, and academic organizations. CTIAfunded research is conducted through contracts to independent investigators.
H E�MERGENCY CALLS Never rely solely upon your wireless phone for essential communications (e.g., medical emergencies), if it can be avoided, since a wireless phone requires a complex combination of radio signals, relay stations and landline networks for its operation. Consequently, emergency calls may not always be possible under all conditions on all wireless phone systems. Your wireless phone, however, may sometimes be the only available means of communication at the scene of an accident.
