Safety information for the Lexus Link System
Important!: Read this information before using the Lexus
Link System.
EXPOSURE TO RADIO FREQUENCY SIGNALS
The Lexus Link System to be installed in your vehicle is a low
power radio transmitter and receiver. When the ignition is
turned to the “ON” position, it 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 wireless phones. Those guidelines are consistent with
the safety standards previously set by both U.S. and
international standards bodies.

Those standards were based
on comprehensive and periodic
evaluations of the relevant scientific literature. 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 the Lexus Link System complies with the FCC
guidelines in addition to those standards.
