1.2 RF Safety Information
The handset has an internal antenna located at the top of the phone. For optimum
performance with minimum power consumption do not cover the antenna area
with your hand. Hold the handset between thumb and finger in the middle of the
device. Covering the antenna affects call quality, may cause the handset to
operate at higher power level than needed, and may shorten talk and idle
times.
Radio Frequency Energy
The handset is a low-power radio transmitter and receiver. When switched on it
intermittently transmits radio frequency (RF) energy (radio waves). The transmit
power level is optimized for best performance and automatically reduces when
there is good quality reception. Maximum power is only used at the edge of
network coverage so under most circumstances the power output is very low.
Under poor network conditions the phone will transmit at a higher power, may
get hot and will have a significantly shorter battery life.
Declaration of Conformity
We declare under our sole responsibility that the product(s) detailed in this
manual, and in combination with our accessories, conform with the essential
requirements of The Radio Communications Standard (Electro-magnetic
Radiation Human Exposure) 2003 and the Australian Communications and Media
Authority Section 376 of the Telecommunications Act 1997.
