updated standard after reviewing the available body of research.

In 1993, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC)

adopted this updated standard in a regulation. In August 1996,

the FCC adopted a hybrid standard consisting of the existing

ANSI/IEEE standard and the guidelines published by the National

Council of Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP).

The design of your phone complies with these updated standards.

Of course, if you want to limit RF exposure even further than the

updated standard, you can choose to control the duration of your

calls and operate your phone in the most power-efficient manner.

Using Your Phone Near Other Electronic Devices

Most modern electrical equipment is shielded from radio
frequency (RF) signals. However, RF signals from PCS phones
may affect inadequately shielded electronic equipment.

RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately
shielded electronic operating and entertainment systems in
motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its representative
to determine if these systems are adequately shielded from
external RF signals. You should also check with the manufacturer
regarding any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.

Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices (such
as pacemakers and hearing aids) to determine if they are
adequately shielded from external RF signals.

Turn off the phone in health care facilities and request permission
before using the phone near medical equipment.
