Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use
Since its introduction in the mid 1980s the mobile phone is one of the most exciting and innovative products ever developed. Your phone can help you to stay in touch with your office, your home, emergency services and others.
Safety

Exposure to Radio Frequency Signals

Not

Your wireless handheld portable telephone is a low power radio transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it
l receives and also sends out radio frequency (RF) signals. ia In August, 1996, the Federal Communications Comrc mission (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines with
safety levels for handheld wireless phones. Those guide-
e lines are consistent with the safety standards previously m set by both US and international standards bodies: m · ANSI C95.1 (1992) o · NCRP Report 86 (1986) c · ICNIRP (1996)* forThose standards were based on comprehensive and peri-
odic evaluations of the relevant scientific literature. For example, over 120 scientists, engineers, and physicians from universities, government health agencies, and

Inc. industry reviewed the available body of research to
develop the ANSI Standard (C95.1).
on The design of your phone complies with the FCC guides lines (and those standards). s * American National Standards Institute: National Counric cil on Radiation Protection and Measurements; Interna-
tional Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection.

use E Antenna Care

Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the phone and may violate

FCC regulations.

Phone Operation
NORMAL POSITION: Hold the phone as you would any other telephone with the antenna pointed up and over your shoulder.
TIPS ON EFFICIENT OPERATION: For your phone to operate most efficiently:
· Extend your antenna fully (where applicable).
· Do not touch the antenna unnecessarily when the phone is in use. Contact with the antenna affects call quality and may cause the phone to operate at a higher power level than otherwise needed.

Guidelines for Safe and Efficient Use

Not for commercial use Ericsson Inc. Driving

Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless telephones in the areas where you drive. Always obey them. Also, if using your phone while driving, please:
· Give full attention to driving – driving safely is your first responsibility.
· Use handsfree operation, if available.
· Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions so require.
In addition, Ericsson suggests the following safe driving tips if you are using your phone while driving:
· Get to know your wireless phone and its features such as speed dial and redial.
· Position your wireless phone within easy reach.
· Suspend conversations during hazardous driving conditions or situations.
· Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving.
· Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls when you are not moving or before pulling into traffic.
· Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may be distracting.
· Use your wireless phone to call for help.
· Use you wireless phone to help others in emergencies.

· Call roadside assistance or a special wireless nonemergency assistance number when necessary.
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals. However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against RF signals from your wireless phone.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation of six (6″) inches be maintained between a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the independent research by and recommendations of Wireless Technology Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
· Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches from their pacemaker when the phone is turned ON.
· Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket. · Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to mini-
mize the potential for interference. · If you have any reason to suspect that interference is
taking place, turn your phone OFF immediately.
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may

want to consult your service provider (or call the customer service line to discuss alternatives).
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.
Turn your phone OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its representative
l regarding your vehicle. You should also consult the mania ufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your rc vehicle. e Posted Facilities m Turn your phone OFF in any facility where posted m notices so require. r co FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while in the foair. Switch OFF your phone before boarding an aircraft.

Blasting Areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your
c. phone OFF when in a “blasting area” or in areas posted:
“Turn off two-way radio.” Obey all signs and instruc-
In tions. on Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
s Turn your phone OFF when in any area with a potens tially explosive atmosphere and obey all signs and ric instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an explo-
sion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.
EAreas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often but not always clearly marked. They include fueling e areas such as gasoline stations; below deck on boats; fuel s or chemical transfer or storage facilities; vehicles using u liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane);
areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders; and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.
For Vehicles Equipped with an Air Bag
An air bag inflates with great force. DO NOT place objects, including both installed or portable wireless equipment, in the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious bodily injury could result.
