* American National Standards Institute; National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements; International
Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection. Those standards were based on comprehensive and periodic
evaluations of the relevant scientific literature. For example, over 120 scientists, engineers, and physicians from
universities, government health agencies, and industry reviewed the available body of research to develop the
ANSI Standard (C95.1). The design of your phone complies with the FCC guidelines (and those standards).
Antenna Care
Use only the supplied or approved replacement antenna.Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments
could damage the phone and may violate FCC regulations.
Phone Operation
NORMAL POSITION: Hold the phone as you would any other telephone with the antenna pointed up and over your
shoulder.
Tips on Efficient Operation
For your phone to operate most efficiently, do not touch the antenna unnecessarily when operating the phone.
Contact with the antenna affects call quality and may cause the phone to operate at a higher power level than
otherwise needed, thus reducing battery life.
Driving
Always observe the laws and regulations regarding wireless phone usageswhile driving. Where cell phone use is
permitted while driving, you MUST observe the following:
1. Give full attention to driving -- driving safely is your first responsibility;
2. Use hands-free operation, if available;
3. Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions or the law requires that you
do so.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation of six (6) inches be
maintained between a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the
pacemaker.These recommendations are consistent with the independent research by and recommendations of
Wireless Technology Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
1. Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six (6) inches from their pacemaker when the phone is turned
ON;
2. Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket;
3. Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference;
