Guidelines for safe and ecient use

TIA Safety Information

Provided herein is the complete

TIA Safety Information for Wireless

Handheld phones. Inclusion of

the text covering Pacemakers,

Hearing Aids, and Other Medical

Devices is required in the owner’s

manual for CTIA Certification. Use

of the remaining TIA language is

encouraged when appropriate.

Exposure to Radio Frequency

Signal

Your wireless handheld portable

telephone is a lowpower radio

transmitter and receiver. When it is

ON, it receives and also sends out

radio frequency (RF) signals.

In August, 1996, the Federal

Communications Commissions

(FCC) adopted RF exposure

guidelines with safety levels for

handheld wireless phones.

Those guidelines are consistent

with the safety standards

previously set by both U.S. and

international standards bodies:

ANSI C95.1 (1992) *

NCRP Report 86 (1986)

ICNIRP (1996)

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).

* American National Standards

Institute; National Council

on Radiation Protection and

Measurements; International

Commission on Non-Ionizing

Radiation Protection

13

Electronic Devices

Most modern electronic equipment

is shielded from RF signals.

However, certain electronic

equipment may not be shielded

against the 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;
