The Toyota audio multimedia sys-  
tem installed in your vehicle  
includes a low power radio trans-  
mitter and receiver. The system  
receives and also sends out radio  
frequency (RF) signals.  
In August 1996, the Federal Com-  
munications Commission (FCC)  
adopted RF exposure guidelines  
with safety levels for mobile wire-  
less phones. Those guidelines are  
consistent with the safety stan-  
dards previously set by both U.S.  
and international standards bod-  
ies.  
• ANSI (American National Stan-  
dards Institute) C95.1 [1992]  
• NCRP (National Council on Radi-  
ation Protection and Measure-  
ment) Report 86 [1986]  
• ICNIRP (International Commis-  
sion on Non-Ionizing Radiation  
Protection) [1996]  
These standards are based on  
comprehensive and periodic eval-  
uations of the relevant scientific lit-  
erature. Over 120 scientists,  
engineers, and physicians from  
500

agencies, and industry reviewed

develop the ANSI Standard  
(C95.1).  
The design of Toyota audio multi-  
media system complies with the  
FCC guidelines in addition to  
those standards.
