Health and Safety Information
Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed
and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to
radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications
Commission of the U.S. Government. These limits are part of
comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy
for the general population. The guidelines are based on the safety
standards previously set by both U.S. and international standards
bodies:
■ American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE. C95.1-1992
■ National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement
(NCRP). Report 86. 1986
■ International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection
(ICNIRP) 1996
■ Ministry of Health (Canada), Safety Code 6. The standards
include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety
of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The
SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg .
Note
In the U.S. and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones used by
the public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over one gram of
tissue. The standard incorporates a substantial margin of safety
to give additional protection for the public and to account for any
variations in.
