Radio Frequency (RF) Signals

Your wireless handheld portable telephone is a low-power radio

transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it receives and sends out radio

frequency (RF) signals.

In August 1996, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) adopted

RF exposure guidelines that included safety levels for handheld wireless

phones. Those guidelines are consistent with safety standards previously

set by both U.S and international standards bodies:

• ANSI C95.1 (1992)*, NCRP Report 86 (1986)*, ICNIRP (1996)*, and

RSS-102 issue 1.

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).

The design of your phone complies with the FCC guidelines (and those

standards).

For body worn operation, to maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure

guidelines, use only Nokia approved accessories. When carrying the phone

while it is on, place the phone in the specific Nokia carrying cases that

have been tested for compliance.

Use of non-Nokia-approved accessories may violate FCC RF exposure

guidelines and should be avoided.
