Radiofrequency (RF) Energy
Understanding How Your Phone Operates
Your phone is basically a radio transmitter and receiver. When it’s turned on,
it receives and transmits radiofrequency (RF) signals. When you use your
phone, the system handling your call controls the power level. This power
can range from 0.006 watt to 0.2 watt in digital mode.
FCC Notice
This phone may cause TV or radio interference if used in close proximity to
receiving equipment. The FCC can require you to stop using the phone if such
interference cannot be eliminated. This phone complies with part 15 of the
FCC rules. Operation is subject to the condition that this phone does not cause
harmful interference.
Knowing Radio Frequency Safety
The design of your phone complies with updated NCRP standards
described below.
In 1991-92, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and
the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) joined in updating ANSI’s
1982 standard for safety levels with respect to human exposure to RF signals.
More than 120 scientists, engineers and physicians from universities,
government health agencies and industries developed this 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 hybrid standard consisting
of the existing ANSI/IEEE standard and the guidelines published by the
National Council of Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP).
Body-Worn Operation
To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines, if you wear a
handset on your body, use the supplied or approved carrying case, holster
or other body-worn accessory. Use of non-approved accessories may
violate FCC RF exposure guidelines.
