When it is ON, it receives and also sendsout radio frequency (RF) signals.In August, 1996, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC)adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for handheldwireless phones. Those guidelines are consistent with safetystandards previously set by both U.S. and international standardsbodies:ANSI C95.1 (1992)*, NCRP Report 86 (1986)*, ICNIRP (1996)*.Those standards were based on comprehensive and periodicevaluations of the relevant scientific literature. For example, over120 scientists, engineers, and physicians from universities,government health agencies and industry reviewed the availablebody of research to develop the ANSI Standard (C95.1).The design of your phone complies with the FCC guidelines (andthose standards).*American National Standards Institute, National Council onRadiation Protection and Measurements; InternationalCommission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection.
