For Your Safety 103
Body-worn Operation
This device was tested for typical use with the back of the device kept
0.39 inches (1.0 cm) from the body. To comply with FCC RF exposure
requirements, a minimum separation distance of 0.39 inches (1.0 cm) must
be maintained between the user’s body and the back of the device. Any belt-
clips, holsters, and similar accessories containing metallic components may not
be used. Avoid the use of accessories that cannot maintain 0.39 inches (1.0
cm) distance between the user’s body and the back of the device and have not
been tested for compliance with FCC RF exposure limits.
Consumer Information about Radio Frequency
Emissions
Your wireless device, which contains a radio transmitter and receiver, emits
radio frequency energy during use. The following consumer information
addresses commonly asked questions about the health effects of wireless
devices.
Are wireless devices safe?
Scientific research on the subject of wireless devices and radio frequency
(“RF”) energy has been conducted worldwide for many years, and continues.
In the United States, the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) and the
Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) set policies and procedures for
wireless devices. The FDA issued a website publication on health issues related
to cell phone usage where it states, “The scientific community at large…
believes that the weight of scientific evidence does not show an association
between exposure to radiofrequency (RF) from cell phones and adverse
health outcomes. Still the scientific community does recommend conducting
additional research to address gaps in knowledge.” That research is being
conducted around the world and FDA continues to monitor developments in
this field. You can access the joint FDA/FCC website at
http://www.fda.gov
(under “c” in the subject index, select Cell Phones > Research). You can also
contact the FDA toll-free at (888) 463-6332 or (888) INFO-FDA.
