■Exposure to radio frequency signals
The Safety Connect system installed in your vehicle is a low-power radio\
transmitter and receiver. It receives and also sends out radio frequency (RF)
signals.
In August 1996, the Federal Commu nications Commission (FCC) adopted
RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for mobile wireless phones. Those
guidelines are consistent with the safe ty standards previously set by the fol-
lowing U.S. and internat ional standards bodies.
●ANSI (American National Stan dards Institute) C95.1 [1992]
●NCRP (National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement)
Report 86 [1986]
●ICNIRP (International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection)
[1996]
Those standards were based on comprehensive and periodic evaluations of
the relevant scientific literature. Over 120 scientists, engineers, and physi-
cians from universities, and governme nt health agencies and industries
reviewed the available body of rese arch to develop the ANSI Standard
(C95.1).
The design of Safety Connect complies wi th the FCC guidelines in addition to
those standards.

housings.
• If the tire inflation pressure is extr emely higher than the specified level.
• If the spare tire is in a location subj ect to poor radio wave signal reception.
• If a large metallic object which can interfer e with signal reception is put near the
spare tire.
• If tires not equipped with the tire pressure warning valves and transmitters are used.
• If the ID code on the tire pressure warning valves and transmitters is not registered
in the tire pressure warning computer.
●Performance may be affected in the following situations.
