level drops off dramatically with distance. 
For example, you could use a headset and 
carry the wireless phone away from your 
body or use a wireless phone connected to 
a remote antenna. Again, the scientific data 
do not demonstrate that wireless phones 
are harmful. But if you are concerned about 
the RF exposure from these products, you 
can use measures like those described 
above to reduce your RF exposure from 
wireless phone use.

handheld wireless phones and helped 
develop a voluntary standard sponsored 
by the Institute of Electrical and Electronic 
Engineers (IEEE). This standard specifies test 
methods and performance requirements 
for hearing aids and wireless phones 
so that no interference occurs when a 
person uses a ‘compatible’ phone and a 
‘compatible’ hearing aid at the same time. 
This standard was approved by the IEEE in 
2000. The FDA continues to monitor the use 
of wireless phones for possible interactions...

other serious emergency where lives are in 
danger, call 911 or other local emergency 
number, as you would want others to do 
for you.
10.Call roadside assistance or a special 
wireless non-emergency assistance 
number when necessary. Certain situations 
you encounter while driving may...

The exposure standard for wireless mobile 
phones employs a unit of measurement known 
as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The 
SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg. * Tests for 
SAR are conducted using standard operating 
positions specified by the FCC with the phone 
transmitting at its highest certified power level 
in all tested frequency bands. Although SAR 
is determined at the highest certified power 
level, the actual SAR level of the phone while 
operating can be well below the maximum...

107
The FCC has granted an Equipment 
Authorization for this model phone with all 
reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance 
with the FCC RF emission guidelines. SAR 
information on this model phone is on file with 
the FCC and can be found under the Display 
Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/ after 
searching on FCC ID ZNFA340.
Additional information on Specific Absorption 
Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular 
Telecommunications Industry Association (CTIA) 
website at http://www.ctia.org.
