TIA (Telecommunications Industry Association)
Safety Information
The following is the complete TIA Safety
Information for wireless handheld phones.
Exposure to Radio Frequency Signal
Your wireless handheld portable phone is
a low power 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
16
standards bodies:
• ANSI C95.1 (1992) *
• NCRP Report 86 (1986)
• ICNIRP (1996)
• H ealth Canada, Safety Code 6, 1999.
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). The design of your
phone complies with the FCC guidelines, IC
Regulations (and those standards).
