Exposure to Radio Frequency Signals
Your wireless handheld portable telephone is a low power radio
transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it receives and also sends out
radio frequency (RF) signals.
International agencies have set standards and recommendations for
the protection of public exposure to RF electromagnetic energy.

These standards are based on extensive scientific review. For
example, over 120 scientists, engineers, and physicians from
universities, government health agencies, and industry reviewed the
available body of research to develop the updated ANSI Standard.
The design of your phone complies with these standards when used
normally.
Antenna Care
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna.
Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage
the phone and may violate local agency regulations.
