GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION

Read This Information Before Using Your
Hand-held Portable Cellular Telephone
First introduced in 1984, the hand-held portable cellular telephone
is one of the most exciting and innovative electronic products ever
developed. With it, you can stay in contact with your office, your
home, emergency services, and others.
For the safe and efficient operation of your phone, observe
these guidelines.
Your cellular telephone is a radio transmitter and receiver. When it
is ON, it receives and also sends out radio frequency (RF) energy.
The phone operates in the frequency range of 824 MHz to 894
MHz and employs commonly used frequency modulation (FM)
techniques. When you use your phone, the cellular system
handling your call controls the power level at which your phone
transmits. The power level can range from 0.006 of a watt to 0.6
of a watt.
Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy
In 1991, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE),
and in 1992, the American National Standards Institute (ANSI),
updated the 1982 ANSI Standard for safety levels with respect to
human exposure in RF energy. Over 120 scientists, engineers, and
physicians from universities, government health agencies, and
industry, after reviewing the available body of research, developed
this updated Standard. In March 1993, the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) proposed the adoption of this
updated Standard.
The design of your phone complies with this updated Standard. If
you want to limit RF exposure even further, you may choose to con-
trol the duration of your calls and operate your phone in the most
power efficient manner.
Efficient Phone Operation
For your phone to operate at the lowest power level consistent with
satisfactory call quality. Please observe the following guidelines.
If your phone has an extendable antenna, extend it fully. Some
models allow you to place a call with the antenna retracted.
However, your phone operates more efficiently with the antenna
fully extended.
Hold the phone as you would any other telephone. While speak-
ing directly into the mouthpiece, position the antenna up and over
your shoulder.
