Those guidelines are consistent with the safety standard previously set by both U.S. and international standards bodies. The design of this phone complies with the FCC guidelines and these international standards. Use only the supplied or an approved antenna. Unauthorized antennas modifications, or attachments could impair call quality, damage the phone, or result in violation of FCC regulations. Do not use the phone with a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into contact with the skin, a minor burn may result. Please contact your local dealer for replacement antenna.

BODY-WORN OPERATION:
This device was tested for typical body-worn operations with the back/front of the phone kept 1cm from the body. To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, a minimum separation distance of 1cm must be maintained between the user’s body and the back/front of the phone, including the antenna. Third-party belt- clips, holsters and similar accessories containing metallic components shall not be used. Body-worn accessories that cannot maintain 1cm separation distance between the use’s body and the back/front of the phone, and have not been tested for typical body-worn operations may not comply with FCC RE exposure limits and should be avoided.

For more information about RF exposure, please visit the FCC website at www.fcc.gov
