302 Appendix
Safety Precautions for RF Exposure
Use only original manufacturer-approved accessories, or accessories that do not
contain any metal.
Use of non-original manufacturer-approved accessories may violate your local
RF exposure guidelines and should be avoided.
Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals
Your device contains a radio transmitter and receiver. The radiated output power
is far below the international radio frequency exposure limits. These limits are
part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy
for the general population. The guidelines are based on the safety standards
previously set by international standards bodies:
American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE. C95.1-1992
National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement (NCRP).
Report 86. 1986
International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP)
1996
Ministry of Health (Canada), Safety Code 6. The standards include a
substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons,
regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The standard
incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the
public and to account for any variations in usage.
As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, users are advised that for
satisfactory operation of the equipment and for the safety of personnel, it is
recommended that no part of the human body be allowed to come too close to
the antenna during operation of the equipment.
Your device has an internal antenna. Use only the supplied integral antenna. Use
of unauthorized or modified antennas may impair call quality and damage the
phone, causing loss of performance and SAR levels exceeding the recommended
limits as well as result in non-compliance with local regulatory requirements in
your country.
