Emergencycalls might not be possible on all wireless phone networks or when certainnetwork service and/or phone features are in use.Safety TipsFollowing the suggestions in this section will help ensure safe and efficientoperation of your Panasonic phone.This Model Phone Meets The Government’s Requirements For Exposure ToRadio Waves.Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed andmanufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure toradiofrequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commissionof the U.S. Government. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelinesand establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. Theguidelines are based on standards that were developed by independentscientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientificstudies. The standards include a substantial safety margin designed toassure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit ofmeasurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limitset by the FCC is 1.6W/kg. Tests for SAR are conducted using standardoperating positions specified by the FCC with the phone transmitting at itshighest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SARis determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of thephone while operating can be well below the maximum value. This isbecause the phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as touse only the power required to reach the network. In general, the closer youare to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output.Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, it must be testedand certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the limit established by thegovernment-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performedin positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) as requiredby the FCC for each model. The highest SAR value for this model phonewhen tested for use at the ear is 0.982 W/kg and when worn on the body, asdescribed in the “Body –Worn Operation” section, is 0.364 W/kg. (Body-wornmeasurements differ among phone models, depending upon availableaccessories and FCC requirements). While there may be differences
