Panasonic EB-TX310 User Manual

2    Safety First

This phone, like any wireless phone, operates using radio signals, wireless and 
landline networks, and user-programmed functions. Because of this, 
connection in all conditions cannot be guaranteed. Therefore, you should never 
rely solely on any wireless phone for essential communications (for example, 
medical emergencies). When operating in analog mode, the service area where 
you can place and receive calls will be smaller than with other phones. 

If you need to make an emergency (911) call, power the phone on, dial 911, and 
press 

. Emergency calls can be made regardless of lock setting. 

Note: When you purchase your phone, the 

 key is programmed 

as a Super Dial key to call the emergency number 911. However, you 
have to enable this key assignment before you can use it. See 
“Emergency Call” on page 57.

Remember, to make or receive any call, the phone must be switched on and in 
a service area that has adequate signal strength. Emergency calls might not be 
possible on all wireless phone networks or when certain network service and/or 
phone features are in use. 

Following the suggestions in this section will help ensure safe and efficient 
operation of your Panasonic phone.
This Model Phone Meets The Government's Requirements For Exposure 
To Radio Waves. 
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and 
manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radiofrequency 
(RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. 
Government. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish 
permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines are 
based on standards that were developed by independent scientific 
organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. 
The standards include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the 
safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
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 the SAR is 
determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the 
phone while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because 
the phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the 
power required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless 
base station antenna, the lower the power output. 
Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and 
certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the limit established by the 
government-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed in 
positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) as required by 
the FCC for each model. The highest SAR value for this model phone when 

*

In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones used by the 
public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue. The standard 
incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the 
public and to account for any variations in measurements.
