Important! Read this informatio n before using Safety Connect.
■Exposure to radio frequency signals
The Safety Connect system installed in your vehicle is a low-po wer
radio transmitter and receiver. I t receives and also sends out radio
frequency (RF) signals.
In  August  1996,  the  Federal  Communications  Commission  (FCC)
adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for mobile wi re-
less  phones. Those  guidelines  are   consistent  with  the  safety  stan-
dards  previously  set  by  the  following  U.S.  and  international
standards bodies.
● ANSI (American National Stand ards Institute) C95.1 [1992]
● NCRP  (National  Council  on  Radi ation  Protection  and  Measure-
ment) Report 86 [1986]
● ICNIRP  (International  Commission  on  Non-Ionizing  Radiation
Protection) [1996]
Those standards were based on comprehensive and periodic eval-
uations of the relevant scienti fic literature. Over 120 scientists, engi-
neers,  and  physicians  from  unive rsities,  and  government  health
agencies and industries reviewed  the available body of research to
develop the ANSI Standard (C95.1).
The design of Safety Connect complies with the FCC guidelines i n
addition to those standards.
