IMPORTANT
Read this information before using your wireless
handheld phone.
Exposure To Radio Frequency Signals
Your wireless handheld portable telephone is a low power radio transmitter and receiver. When it
is ON, itreceives and also sends out radio frequency (RF) signals.
International agencies have set standards and recommendations for the protection of public
exposure to RF electromagnetic energy.
•International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1996
•Verband Deutscher Elektrotechniker (VDE) DIN-0848
•United States Federal Communications Commission, Radio Frequency Exposure
Guidelines (1996)
•National Radiological Protection Board of the United Kingdom, GS 11, 1988
•American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE. C95. 1-1992
•National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP). Report 86
•Ministry of Health (Canada), Safety Code 6
These standards are based on extensive scientific review. For example, over 120 scientists,
engineers, and physicians from universities, government health agencies, and industry reviewed
the available body of research to develop the updated ANSI standard.
The design of your phone complies with these standards when used normally.
Antenna Care
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas,
modifications, or attachments could damage the phone and may violate local agency
regulations.
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
Observe the following guidelines to operate your phone most efficiently.
•Extend your antenna fully, if applicable.
•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.
Batteries
!CAUTION:All batteries can cause property damage, injury, or burns if a
conductive material, such as jewelry, keys or beaded chains, touches
exposed terminals. The material may complete an electrical circuit and
become quite hot. To protect against such unwanted current drain, exercise
care in handling any charged battery, particularly when placing it inside
your pocket, purse, or other container with metal objects. When the
battery is detached from the phone, your batteries are packed with a

protective battery cover; please use this cover for storing your batteries
when not in use.
Driving
Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless telephones in the areas where you drive.
Always obey them. Observe the following guidelines when using your phone while driving.
•Give full attention to driving--driving safely is your first responsibility.
•Use hands-free phone operation, if available.
•Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions so
require.
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals. However, certain 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
inches (6”) 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 you have 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 hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
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.
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 be using 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 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
Switch OFF your phone before boarding an aircraft.
