When it is ON, it receives and also sends out radio frequency (RF) signals. $QWHQQD &DUH In August, 1996, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for handheld wireless phones. Those guidelines are consistent with the safety standards previously set by both US and international standards bodies: · ANSI C95.1 (1992)* · ICNIRP (1996)* · NCRP Report 86 (1986)* fo ot N 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). er mm co r al ci se u Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna.
