designated for this product or when used with an accessory that contains 
no metal and that positions the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm from the 

body.  
Non-compliance with the above restrictions may result in violation of FCC 

RF exposure guidelines. 
SAR information on this and other model phones can be viewed on-line at 
www.fcc.gov/ oet/fccid. 

This site uses the phone FCC ID number,

Consumer Information on Wireless Phones 
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has published a series of 
Questions and Answers for consumers relating to radio frequency (RF) 
exposure from wireless phones. The FDA publication includes the 

following information: 
What kinds of phones are the subject of this update? 
The term wireless phone refers here to hand-held wireless phones with 
built-in antennas, often called “cell,” “mobile,” or “PCS” phones. These 
types of wireless phones can expose the user to measurable radio 
frequency energy (RF) because of the short distance between the phone 
and the user's head. These RF exposures are limited by Federal 
Communications Commission safety guidelines that were developed with 
the advice of FDA and other federal health and safety agencies. When the 
phone is located at greater distances from the user, the exposure to RF is 
drastically lower because a person's RF exposure decreases rapidly with 
increasing distance from the source. The so-called “cordless phones,” 
which have a base unit connected to the telephone wiring in a house, 
typically operate at far lower power levels, and thus produce RF 

exposures well within the FCC's compliance limits. 
Do wireless phones pose a health hazard? 
The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems 
are associated with using wireless phones. There is no proof, however, 
that wireless phones are absolutely safe. Wireless phones emit low levels 
of radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while being used.
