Body-worn Operation
This device was tested for typical use with the back of the phone kept 0.39 inches 
(1.0 cm) from the body. To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, a minimum 
separation distance of 0.39 inches (1.0 cm) must be maintained between the 
user’s body and the back of the phone.
Any belt-clips, holsters, and similar accessories containing metallic components 
may not be used. Avoid the use of accessories that cannot maintain 0.39 inches 
(1.0 cm) distance between the...

In June 2000, the FDA entered into a cooperative research and development 
agreement through which additional scientific research is being conducted. The FCC 
issued its own website publication stating that “there is no scientific evidence that 
proves that wireless phone usage can lead to cancer or a variety of other problems, 
including headaches, dizziness or memory loss.” This publication is available at 
http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/cellular.html or through the FCC at (888) 225-5322 or...

Can I minimize my RF exposure?
If you are concerned about RF, there are several simple steps you can take to 
minimize your RF exposure. You can, of course, reduce your talk time.
You can place more distance between your body and the source of the RF, as the 
exposure level drops off dramatically with distance. The FDA/FCC website states 
that “hands-free kits can be used with wireless phones for convenience and 
comfort. These systems reduce the absorption of RF energy in the head...

For Your Safety149
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of measurement 
known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 
W/kg. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions specified by 
the FCC with the phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested 
frequency bands. Although SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, 
the actual SAR level of the phone while operating can be well below the...
