Safety
TIA(Telecommunications
Industry Association) Safety
Information
The following is the complete TIA
Safety Information for wireless
handheld phones.
Exposure to Radio Frequency
Signal
Your wireless handheld portable
phone 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 Commissions
(FCC) adopted RF exposure
guidelines with safety levels for
handheld wireless phones.Those
guidelines are consistent with
the safety standards previously
set by both U.S. and international
standards bodies:
• ANSI C95.1 (1992) *
• NCRP Report 86 (1986)
• ICNIRP (1996)
• Health Canada, Safety Code
6, 1999.
Those standards were based
on comprehensive and periodic
evaluations of the relevant
scientific literature. For example,
over 120 scientists, engineers,
and physicians from universities,
government health agencies, and
industry reviewed the available
body of research to develop the
ANSI Standard (C95.1).The
design of your phone complies
with the FCC guidelines,
IC Regulations (and those
standards).
Antenna Care
Use only the supplied or an
approved replacement antenna.
Unauthorised antennas,
modifications, or attachments
could damage the phone and
may violate FCC regulations.

16
Phone Operation
NORMAL POSITION: Hold the
phone as you would any other
telephone with the antenna
pointed up and over your
shoulder.
Tips on Efficient Operation
For your phone to operate most
efficiently:
Do not touch the antenna
unnecessarily when the phone
is in use.
Contact with the antenna affects
call quality and may cause the
phone to operate at a higher
power level than otherwise
needed.
Driving
Check the laws and regulations
on the use of wireless phones in
the areas where you drive and
always obey them.Also, if using
your phone while driving, please
observe the following:
• Give full attention to driving
-- driving safely is your first
responsibility;
• Use hands-free operation.
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic
equipment is shielded from RF
signals.
However, certain electronic
equipment may not be shielded
against the RF signals from your
wireless phone.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry
Manufacturers Association
recommends that a minimum
separation of six (6”) inches be
maintained between a handheld
wireless phone and a pacemaker
to avoid potential interference
with the pacemaker.These
recommendations are consistent
with the independent research
by and recommendations of
Wireless Technology Research.

Persons with Pacemakers:
• Should ALWAYS keep the
phone more than six inches
from their pacemaker when the
phone is turned ON;
• Should not carry the phone in a
breast pocket;
• Should use the ear opposite
the pacemaker to minimize the
potential for interference;
• Should turn the phone OFF
immediately if there is any
reason to suspect that
interference is taking place.
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones
may interfere with some hearing
aids. In the event of such
interference, you may want to
consult your service provider (or
call the customer service line to
discuss alternatives.) Optional for
each phone manufacturer.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal
medical device, consult the
manufacturer of your device
to determine if it is adequately
shielded from external RF energy.
Your physician may be able
to assist you in obtaining this
information.
Health Care Facilities
Turn your phone OFF in health
care facilities when any
regulations posted in these areas
instruct you to do so. Hospitals
or health care facilities may use
equipment that could be sensitive
to external RF energy.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly
installed or inadequately
shielded electronic systems
in motor vehicles. Check
with the manufacturer or
its representative regarding
your vehicle.You should also

18
consult the manufacturer of any
equipment that has been added
to your vehicle.
Posted Facilities
Turn your phone OFF in any
facility where posted notices so
require.
Aircraft
FCC and Transport Canada
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.
Potentially Explosive
Atmosphere
Turn your phone OFF when in any
area with a potentially explosive
atmosphere and obey all signs
and instructions. Sparks in such
areas could cause an explosion
or fire resulting in bodily injury or
even death.
Areas with a potentially explosive
atmosphere are often, but not
always marked clearly. Potential
areas may include: fueling areas
(such as gasoline stations);
below deck on boats; fuel or
chemical transfer or storage
facilities; vehicles using liquefied
petroleum gas (such as propane
or butane); areas where the air
contains chemicals or particles
(such as grain, dust, or metal
powders); and any other area
where you would normally be
advised to turn off your vehicle
engine.
