The information presented in this document is

intended to form the basis of the 9555 Handset
User Guide. The information given describes
the procedures for operation of the handset
and the facilities available
1.1
Iridium 9555 Handset I 2 Safety
2 I Safety
Important: Read this information before using
your satellite phone.
Exposure to Your satellite telephone is a low power radio

transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it
Radio receives and also sends out radio frequency
Frequency (RF) signals. Operation is subject to the
Signals following two conditions: (1) this device may
not cause interference, and (2) this device must
accept any interference, including interference
that may cause undesired operation of the
device.
International agencies have set standards and
recommendations for the protection of public
exposure to RF electromagnetic energy.
• International Commission on Non-

Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP)
• Verband Deutscher Elektrotechniker (VDE)
• United States Federal Commission, Radio
Frequency Exposure Guidelines
• National Radiological Protection Board of
the United Kingdom
• American National Standards Institute
(ANSI) IEEE. C95. 1-1992
• National Council on Radiation Protection
and Measurements (NCRP). Report 86
• Department of Health and Welfare
Canada. Safety Code 6
These updated ANSI standards are based on an

extensive scientific review of the available body
of research by over 120 scientists, engineers,
and physicians from universities, government
2.1
health agencies and related industries.

The design of your phone complies with these
standards when used as described under
Phone Operation on page 2.3.
This product is compliant with Industry
Canada RSS-102 for RF Exposure.
Specific This model phone meets international

standards for exposure to radio waves.
Absorption
Rate Data Your satellite phone is a radio transmitter and
receiver. It is designed and manufactured not
to exceed limits for exposure to radio
frequency (RF) energy. These limits are part of
comprehensive guidelines and established
permitted levels of RF energy for the general
population. The guidelines are based on
standards that we developed by independent
scientific organizations through periodic and
thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The
guidelines include a substantial safety margin
designed to assure the safety of all persons,
regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for mobile phones
employs a unit of measurement known as the
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. Under the
guidelines for this model, the SAR limit is 1.6
W/kg. *Tests for SAR were conducted in
accordance with CENELEC and FCC testing
procedures using standard operating
positions 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 of the phone while
operating can be below the maximum value.
Before a phone model is available for sale to
the public, it is tested to confirm compliance
with the guidelines. The tests are performed
2.2
in positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and

worn on the body) that conform to a uniform
testing methodology determined by an expert
standards body. The highest SAR level recorded
from this product was 0.869 mW/g for a 1g
cube which was below the uncontrolled (i.e.
general population) limit. While there may be
differences between the SAR levels of various
phones and at various positions, they all meet
the governmental requirements for safe
exposure. PLEASE NOTE THAT MODIFICATIONS
TO THIS PRODUCT MODEL COULD CAUSE
DIFFERENCES IN THE SAR VALUE FOR LATER
PRODUCTS; IN ALL CASES, PRODUCTS ARE
DESIGNED TO BE WITHIN THE GUIDELINES.
Antenna Use only the supplied or an approved

replacement antenna. Unauthorized
Care antennas, modifications, or attachments
could damage the phone and may violate
government regulations. When using remote
mount antenna, mount antenna at least 20
cm away from the user. Also when using a
remote mount antenna in order to reduce
potential radio interference to other users,
the antenna type and its gain should be so
chosen such that the equivalent isotropically
radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that
permitted for successful communication.
Phone Normal Operation

Hold the phone as you would any other
Operation telephone. Fully extend the antenna then
rotate the antenna to either the left or right
detent. The antenna should be vertical to the
ground and have a clear unobstructed view of
the sky.
2.3
Tips on Efficient Operation

For your phone to operate most efficiently:
• Fully extend your antenna then rotate

into position.
• Make sure the antenna has a clear
unobstructed view of the sky.
• Do not touch the antenna unnecessarily
when the phone is in use.
• Contact with the antenna affects call
quality and may cause the phone to
operate at a higher power level than
otherwise needed.
• Do not wear the phone on your body
while making calls with the headset
accessory. Wearing the phone on the
body can interfere with proper phone
operation, since the antenna requires a
clear unobstructed view of the sky to
access the Iridium® satellite network.
Batteries
! WARNING!
All batteries can cause property
damage, injury or burns if a
conductive material, such as jewelry,
keys or beaded chains, touches
exposed terminals. The material may
complete an electrical circuit and
become quite hot. To protect against
such unwanted current drain, exercise
care in handling any charged battery,
particularly when placing it inside
your pocket, purse or other container
with metal objects.
Risk of explosion if battery is replaced
by an incorrect type. Dispose of used
batteries according to instructions on
page 4.5.
2.4
Driving Check the laws and regulations on the use of

wireless telephones in the areas where you drive.
Always obey them. Many local governments
prohibit the use of mobile telephones while
driving. Observe the following guidelines when
using your phone while driving.
• Give full attention to driving—driving

safely is your first responsibility.
• Use hands-free phone operation,
if available.
• Pull off the road and park safely before
making or answering a call.
Electronic Most modern electronic equipment is shielded

from RF signals. However, certain equipment may
Devices not be shielded against the RF signals from your
wireless phone.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association
recommends that a minimum separation of six
inches (6”) 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
• Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket
• Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker
to minimize the potential for interference
• Should turn the phone OFF immediately if
you have any reason to suspect that
interference is taking place
2.5
Hearing Aids

with some hearing aids. In the event of such
interference, you may want to consult your
hearing aid manufacturer to discuss
alternatives.
Other Medical Devices

If you use any other personal medical device,
consult the manufacturer of your device to
determine if it is adequately shielded from
external RF energy. Consult your physician to
determine compatibility with your medical
device.
Turn your phone OFF in health care facilities
when any regulations posted in these areas
instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care
facilities may be using equipment that could
be sensitive to external RF energy.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or
inadequately shielded electronic systems in
motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer
or its representative regarding your vehicle.
You should also consult the manufacturer of
any equipment that has been added to your
vehicle.
