Safe and Efficient Use 71
Efficient Use
Only expose the mobile phone to temperatures
between +55°C (+131°F) and -10°C (+14°F) when
the phone is in use.
For optimum performance with minimum power
consumption please:
• Hold the phone as you would any other telephone.
While speaking directly into the mouthpiece, angle
the antenna in a direction up and over your shoulder.
• Do not touch the antenna when the phone is in use.
Touching the antenna affects call quality, may cause
the phone to operate at a higher power level than
needed and may shorten talk and standby times. If
your mobile phone is equipped with an infrared eye,
never direct the infrared ray at anyone's eye and make
sure that it does not disturb any other infrared units.
Radio Frequency Energy
Your mobile phone is a low-power radio transmitter
and receiver. When it is turned on, it intermittently
receives and transmits radio-frequency (RF) energy
(radio waves). The system that handles the call
controls the power level at which the phone transmits.
Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy
All Ericsson mobile phone models are designed to
not exceed the limits for exposure to RF energy set by
national authorities and international health
agencies.* These limits establish permitted levels of
radio wave exposure for the general population. The
guidelines were developed by international scientific
organizations like ICNIRP (International
Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection)
through periodic and thorough evaluation of
scientific studies. The limits include a safety margin
designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless
of age and health.
* Examples of radio-frequency exposure guidelines
and standards that Ericsson mobile phone models are
designed to conform to:
• ICNIRP, “Guidelines for limiting exposure to time-
varying electric, magnetic, and electromagnetic fields
(up to 300 GHz)”, International Commission on Non-
Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP), Health
Physics, vol.74, pp494-522, April 1998.
• 99/519/EC, “Council Recommendation of 12 July
1999 on the limitation of exposure of the general
public to electromagnetic fields (0 Hz to 300 GHz)”,
Official Journal of the European Communities, 1999.
