Export Information

The mobile phone may be subject to

export regulation of the United States

and other countries. Diversion con-

trary to law is prohibited. You must

comply with all applicable export laws,

restrictions and regulations of the

United States foreign agencies or au-

thorities, and may not export, or trans-

fer for the purpose of re-export, the

mobile phone or any part of the phone

in violation of any applicable restric-

tions, laws or regulations, or without

all necessary approvals.

Network Services

A number of features included in this

guide are called Network Services.

They are special services provided by

wireless service providers. In order

to use any of these Network Servic-

es, you must subscribe to these ser-

vice(s) from your service provider

and obtain instructions for their use.

Some of these Network Services may

not be available when roaming on a

network other than your home

network.

Standby and

Talk Time Information

The mobile phone incorporates fea-

tures that are new to the mobile

phone world. These may include col-

or displays and lighting, graphic

games, music reproduction and

browsing the Internet. The way you

use the display and the features will

affect the performance of the bat-

tery and how long it lasts between

charge cycles. The quoted standby

times and talk times show the mini-

mum and maximum performance

that can be expected from the bat-

tery under normal network condi-

tions and with the default settings as

set by the factory. However, playing

games (particularly with the back-

light continuously switched on) and

listening to music will shorten the

time available for standby and to

make and receive telephone calls.

Operation times also vary depending

on network conditions, SIM settings,

charging and battery condition, how

you use your phone and other

factors.

Memory

The mobile phone contains an inter-

nal memory device that stores the

software required to operate the

mobile phone, communicate with

the GSM/GPRS network and provide

the user interface. Some features in

the internal memory run additional

devices and some additional games

and utilities. The amount of memory

available in the mobile phone is fi-

nite and may be insufficient to store

large numbers of applications and

files.

Warning!

Remember to back up your data and to do

so frequently. Always back up all data and

programs before sending the mobile phone

in for repair.

Safety precautions

Information for parents

Please read the operating instructions and safety precautions carefully be-

fore use.

Explain the content and the hazards associated with using the phone to your

children.

Remember to comply with

legal requirements and lo-

cal restrictions when us-

ing the phone. For exam-

ple in aeroplanes, petrol

stations, hospitals or

while driving.

Cellular phones can inter-

fere with the functioning of

medical devices such as

hearing aids

or pacemakers. Keep at

least 9 inches (20 cm)

between phone and pace-

maker. When using the cell

phone hold it to the ear

which is farthest from the

pacemaker. For more infor-

mation consult your doctor.

Ringtones, info tones and

handsfree talking are re-

produced through the

loudspeaker. Do not hold

the phone to the ear when

it rings or when you have

switched on the handsfree

function. Otherwise you

risk serious permanent

damage to your hearing.

Only use original batteries

(100 % mercury-free) and

– charging devices. Other-

wise you risk serious dam-

age to health and proper-

ty. The battery could

explode, for instance.

Small parts such as the SIM

card, sealing stop, lens

ring and lens cap as well as

the Micro SD Card can be

dismantled and swallowed

by small children. The

phone must therefore be

stored out of the reach of

small children.

The mains voltage speci-

fied on the power supply

unit (V) must not be ex-

ceeded. Otherwise the

charging device may be

destroyed.

The power supply must be

plugged into an easily ac-

cessible AC mains power

socket when charging the

battery. The only way to

turn off the charging de-

vice after charging the

battery is to unplug it.

7Safety precautions

right page (7) of EF81 KESTREL FCC us-en, (31.01.2006, 10:24)

Template: X75, Version 2.2;VAR Language: en; VAR issue date: 051116

Do not use a handheld

while driving.

Do not place the phone

near to electromagnetic

data carriers such as credit

cards and floppy disks. In-

formation stored on them

could be lost.

You may only open the

phone to replace the bat-

tery (100 % mercury-free),

SIM and Micro SD Card.

You must not open the

battery under any circum-

stances. All other changes

to this device are strictly

prohibited and will invali-

date the guarantee.

Important:

Please dispose of unwant-

ed batteries and phones

as permitted by the laws

in your country.

The phone may cause in-

terference in the vicinity

of TV sets, radios and PCs.

Use only original accessories. This

will avoid potential risks to health or

property and ensure compliance

with all relevant regulations.

Improper use will invalidate the

guarantee! These safety instructions

also apply to original accessories.

Product attributes are subject to

changes in technology, design and

availability. BenQ reserves the right

to modify products without prior

notice.

This cellular phone offers a range of

functions, it can be used in posi-

tions other than the head, such as

on the body. In this case, separa-

tion distance of 1.5 cm is required.

When a carry case, belt clip or hold-

er is used for body-worn operation,

it should not contain metal and

should position the device the

above-stated distance from your

body.

Safety precautions8

Template: X75, Version 2.2;VAR Language: en; VAR issue date: 051116

Antenna care

Use only the supplied or an approved

replacement antenna. Unauthorized

antennas, modifications, or attach-

ments could damage the phone and

may violate FCC regulations.

Phone operation

Normal position

Hold the phone as you would any

other telephone with the antenna

pointed up and over your shoulder.

Tips on efficient operation

For your phone to operate most

efficiently:

• Extend your antenna fully

(if applicable).

• Do not touch the antenna unnec-

essarily when the phone is in use.

Contact with the antenna affects

call quality and may cause the

phone to operate at a higher pow-

er level than otherwise needed.

Driving

Laws pertaining to the use of mobile

phones while driving vary significant-

ly from state to state and sometimes

even from locality to locality within

states. For example, some areas may

allow persons to use their mobile

phones only if they employ a hands-

free device, and some areas may

prohibit the use of cell phones

entirely. Accordingly, BenQ recom-

mends that persons check the laws for

the areas in which they drive or will be

driving. For areas where the use of

mobile phones while driving is per-

mitted, BenQ encourages persons to

use their phones responsibly and to

employ hands-free devices. Also, if us-

ing your phone while driving, please:

• Give full attention to driving –

driving safely is your first

responsibility;

• Use hands-free operation, if

available;

• Pull off the road and park before

making or answering a call, if

driving conditions so require.

For vehicles equipped with

air bags

An air bag inflates with great force.

DO NOT place objects, including ei-

ther installed or portable wireless

equipment, in the area over the air

bag or in the air bag deployment ar-

ea. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is

improperly installed and the air bag

inflates, serious injury could result.

Important

Read this information before using

your wireless handheld phone.

As this mobile phone is equipped

with a fixed (non-retractable) an-

tenna, some paragraphs in the text

below may not be applicable.

right page (9) of EF81 KESTREL FCC us-en, (31.01.2006, 10:24)

Template: X75, Version 2.2;VAR Language: en; VAR issue date: 051116

Electronic devices

Most modern electronic equipment

is shielded from radio frequency (RF)

signals. However, certain electronic

equipment may not be shielded

against the RF signals from your

wireless phone.

Pacemakers

The Health Industry Manufacturers'

Association recommends that a min-

imum separation of six inches (6")

be maintained between a handheld

wireless phone and a pacemaker to

avoid potential interference with the

pacemaker. These recommenda-

tions are consistent with the inde-

pendent research by and recommen-

dations 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 poten-

tial for interference;

• should turn the phone OFF imme-

diately if there is any reason to

suspect that interference is taking

place.

Hearing aids

Some digital wireless phones may

interfere with some hearing aids. In

the event of such interference, you

may want to consult your service

provider or your hearing aid manu-

facturer to discuss alternatives.

Template: X75, Version 2.2;VAR Language: en; VAR issue date: 051116

Other medical devices

If you use any other personal medi-

cal devices, consult the manufactur-

ers of your devices to determine if

they are adequately shielded from

external RF energy. Your physician

may be able to assist you in obtain-

ing this information.

Turn your phone OFF in health care

facilities when any regulations post-

ed 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 vehi-

cle. You should also consult the

manufacturer of any equipment that

has been added to your vehicle.

Posted facilities

Turn your phone OFF in any facility

where posted notices so require.

Airplanes

FCC and Airline Regulations prohibit

using your phone while in the air.

Turn your phone OFF when request-

ed by the airline.

Check and comply with the policy of

your airline regarding the use of your

phone while the airplane is on the

ground.

Blasting areas

To avoid interfering with blasting op-

erations, turn your phone OFF when

in a “blasting area” or in areas post-

ed: “Turn off two-way radio.” Obey

all signs and instructions.

11Safety precautions

right page (11) of EF81 KESTREL FCC us-en, (31.01.2006, 10:24)

Template: X75, Version 2.2;VAR Language: en; VAR issue date: 051116

Potentially explosive

atmospheres

Turn your phone OFF when in any

area with a potentially explosive

atmosphere and obey all signs and

instructions. Sparks in such areas

could cause an explosion or fire

resulting in bodily injury or even

death.

Areas with a potentially explosive at-

mosphere are often but not always

clearly marked. They include: fueling

areas such as gasoline stations; be-

low deck on boats; fuel or chemical

transfer or storage facilities; vehicles

using liquefied petroleum gas (such

as propane or butane); areas where

the air contains chemicals or parti-

cles, such as grain, dust or metal

powders; and any other area where

you would normally be advised to

turn off your vehicle engine.

Emergency calls (SOS)

Your wireless phone can be used

to make emergency calls. You can

make an emergency call from the

main display screen. Enter the local

emergency number such as 911 and

then press the A key.

This phone, like any wireless phone,

operates using radio signals, wire-

less and landline networks, and user-

programmed functions. Because of

this, connections in all conditions

cannot be guaranteed. Therefore,

you should never rely solely on any

wireless phone for essential commu-

nications (for example, medical

emergencies). Remember – to make

or receive any calls, the phone must

be switched on and be used in a ser-

vice area that has adequate signal

strength. Emergency calls might not

be possible on all wireless phone

networks or when certain network

services or phone features are in use.

Check with local service providers re-

garding their network features.

Always make certain that your

phone is properly charged before

attempting any emergency calls. If

you allow your battery to discharge,

you will be unable to receive or make

calls, including emergency calls. You

must then wait a few minutes after

the charging begins to place any

emergency calls.

When making an emergency call,

remember to give all of the neces-

sary information as accurately as

possible. Remember that your wire-

less phone might be the only means

of communication at the scene of an

accident, therefore you should not

terminate the call until given permis-

sion to do so.

Template: X75, Version 2.2;VAR Language: en; VAR issue date: 051116

Batteries and Chargers

Only use original batteries

(100% mercury-free) and charging

devices. Use of non-original batter-

ies and/or charging devices may

cause explosion resulting in serious

injury and/or property damage. Use

original accessories in order to avoid

possible injury and property damage

and to ensure compliance with appli-

cable laws and regulations. Improper

use invalidates the warranty.

Getting started

Your phone's displays are covered

with a protective film. Remove this

film slowly before using the phone.

In rare cases, static discharge may

cause discolouration at the edges of

the display. However, this will disap-

pear within approx. 10 minutes.

Inserting the SIMcard/

Micro SD card

The service provider supplies you

with a SIM card on which all the im-

portant data for your line is stored. If

the SIM card has been delivered in

credit-card size, snap the smaller

segment out and remove any rough

edges.

The Micro SD Card gives your phone

a very large memory capacity. This

allows you to save picture/video files

and sound recordings, for example.

However, you can also use this Micro

SD Card like a floppy disk to save any

other files.

You can access the list of folders and

files in the My stuff menu (page 116).

If you assign a file from the Micro SD

Card to a function in the phone such

as a ringtone, the file is copied to the

phone memory.

• Place the SIM card in front of the

slot with the contact surface fac-

ing downwards 1. Ensure that the

chamfered corner is in the correct

position.

• Place the Micro SD Card in front of

the slot 2.

Attention

Insert the SIM card before inserting the

Micro SD Card.When the Micro SD Card is

wrongly inserted into the SIM card slot, it

cannot be removed!

New Micro SD Card

• Create a backup copy of the data on the

old Micro SD Card on a PC.

• Format the new Micro SD Card.

• Copy the data from the PC onto the new

Micro SD Card.

in position, so that the check

marks get caught in the cut-

outs 5. Then press it downwards,

until it clicks into place 6.

Please observe the manufacturer's operat-

ing instructions that come with the Micro

plug the power supply unit into a

mains power socket and charge for

at least two hours.

Only use the plug-in power supply

included in delivery!

As an alternative, the battery can

be charged via the USB port

(Accessories, page 141).

YDisplay during charging.

Charging time

An empty battery is fully charged

after about 2 hours. Charging is only

possible within a temperature range

of +5 °C to +40 °C (+41°F to +104°F).

If the temperature rises/falls 5°C

above/below this, i.e drops to 32°F

or rises to 113°F, the charge symbol

flashes a warning. The mains voltage

specified on the power supply unit

must not be exceeded.

Attention

Please switch off your phone before

removing the battery!

Template: X75, Version 2.2;VAR Language: en; VAR issue date: 051116

The charge level of the battery is

only displayed correctly after an un-

interrupted charging/discharging

cycle. You should therfore not remove

the battery unnecessarily and where

possible not end the charging process

prematurely.

Operating time and

temperature

The operating time depends on the

operating conditions. Extreme tem-

peratures considerably reduce the

phone’s standby time. Avoid placing

the phone in the sun or on a heater.

Talktime:

• UMTS: up to 210 minutes

• GSM: up to 270 minutes

Standby time:

• UMTS: up to 250 hours

• GSM: up to 300 hours

Charge icon not visible

If the battery has been discharged

fully, the charge icon is not immedi-

ately visible when the power supply

is plugged in. It will appear after up

to two hours. In this case the battery

is fully charged after 3 to 4 hours.

Display while in service

Battery low warning

When the battery is almost empty

you are warned twice. The first

warning appears when the battery

has 10 minutes of power remaining.

The second warning appears when

the battery has 1 minute of power

remaining.

§OK§ Press to confirm warning.

Powering off

If the battery is completely empty,

the phone switches off automatically.

The power supply unit heats up when used

for long periods. This is normal and not

dangerous.

If the battery is removed for longer than

30 seconds, the clock must be reset.

The phone may heat up during data transfer

or when using UMTS. This is normal and not

dangerous.

The talktime and standby time depend on

the network environment. For more exam-

ples of functions that reduce the standby

time, e.g. animated screensaver, fast

search, see page 144.

If the phone powered down because of

low battery, it will power on again automat-

ically when charged.

Template: X75, Version 2.2;VAR Language: en; VAR issue date: 051116

Connectivity

Your phone supports different

methods for transmitting data in the

mobile network:

• The fastest method is UMTS

(Universal Mobile

Telecommunications System). If

you use UMTS, you can make vid-

eo calls in high quality. You can be

connected to the Internet perma-

nently. Only the current transmis-

sion time is charged by the

network operator. Some service

providers do not yet support this

service.

•GPRS (General Packet Radio

Service) is another method for

transmitting data in the mobile

network. With GPRS you can be

connected to the Internet perma-

nently, as well, if the network has

sufficient capacity. Only the cur-

rent transmission time is charged

by the network operator.

•GSM (Global System for Mobile

Communications) is a fully digital

standard for mobile networks

mainly used for voice calls and

text messages (SMS).

Depending on the surrounding net-

work and your provider, the differ-

ent methods are used automatically.

Depending on your provider you

may set which method to use

(page 140).

Digital Rights Mgmt.

(DRM)

Remember that your phone has

digital rights management. The use

of downloaded pictures, sounds

or applications can be restricted

by the suppliers, e.g. copy protec-

tion, use for a limited period of time

only, number of times they can be

used, etc.

have listed below some frequently asked questions and answers.

Configuration service

To help you set up your mobile phone for the data service WAP, MMS, e-mail and Internet,

you can use a configuration service. This service is used to have the necessary settings for

your mobile phone sent to you by SMS. We recommend that you contact your network

provider who will send you the configuration messages.

Template: X75, Version 2.2;VAR Language: en; VAR issue date: 051116

Care and maintenance

Your phone has been designed and manu-

factured to the highest of standards and

should be treated with great care. The sug-

gestions below will help you to enjoy your

phone for many years.

• Protect your phone from moisture and hu-

midity. Precipitation, humidity and liquids

contain minerals that will corrode electron-

ic circuits. Nevertheless, should your

phone become wet, disconnect it immedi-

ately from the power supply to avoid elec-

tric shock. Do not place your phone (even

to dry it) on/in a source of heat such as

a microwave oven, oven or radiator. The

phone may become overheated and

possibly explode.

• Do not use or store the phone in dusty,

dirty areas. Its moving parts may be

damaged and the casing may become

deformed and discoloured.

• Do not store your phone in hot environ-

ments (e.g. vehicle instrument panel in the

summer). High temperatures can shorten

the life of electronic devices, damage bat-

teries and warp or melt certain plastics.

• Do not store your phone in cold environ-

ments. When the phone warms up again

(to its normal ambient temperature), mois-

ture can form inside the phone, which may

damage electronic circuit boards.

• Do not drop, knock or shake your phone.

Rough handling can damage internal cir-

cuit boards!

• Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning

solvents, or strong detergents to clean

the phone!

The suggestions given above apply equally

to your phone, battery, charger and all ac-

cessories. If any of these parts is not working

properly, obtain fast and reliable help at our

service centres.

Battery quality statement

The capacity of your mobile phone battery

will reduce each time it is charged/emptied.

Storage at too high or low temperatures will

also result in a gradual capacity loss. As

a result the operating time of your mobile

phone may be considerably reduced, even

after a full recharge of the battery.

Regardless of this, the battery has been de-

signed and manufactured so that it can be

recharged and used for six months after the

purchase of you mobile phone. After six

months, if the battery is clearly suffering from

loss of performance, we recommend that

you replace it. Please buy only original

batteries.

Display quality

declaration

For technological reasons, a few small dots

with different colours may appear in the dis-

play in exceptional cases.

Just remember that the appearance of

brighter or darker dots generally does not

mean that a fault has occurred.

SAR

INFORMATION ON RF EXPOSURE /

SPECIFIC ABSORPTION RATE (SAR)

THIS MODEL MEETS THE GOVERN-

MENT’S REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPO-

SURE TO RADIO WAVES

Your cellular phone is a radio trans-

mitter and receiver. It is designed to

meet the requirements for exposure

to radio waves established by the

Federal Communications Commis-

sion (FCC, USA) and by Health Cana-

da. These requirements include safe-

ty margins designed to assure the

protection of all persons, regardless

of age and health. They use a unit of

measurement known as the Specific

Absorption Rate (SAR). The SAR limit

is 1.6 W/kg averaged over one gram

of tissue.

The highest SAR value for this device

when tested at the ear was 0.42 W/kg.

In positions other than the head,

such as on the body, a separation

distance of 1.5 cm is required. The

highest SAR value in this case was

0.53 W/kg.

Information about this device model

can be found at

http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid

by searching the equipment authori-

zation system using FCC ID: PWX-EF81.

As SAR is measured utilizing the de-

vice’s highest transmitting power,

the actual SAR of this device while

operating is typically below that indi-

cated above. This is due to automatic

changes to the power level of the de-

vice to ensure it only uses the mini-

mum level required to reach the net-

work.

U.S. FDA

The U.S. Food and Drug

Administration's (FDA) Center

for Devices and Radiological

Health Consumer Update on

Mobile Phones

FDA has been receiving inquiries

about the safety of mobile phones,

including cellular phones and PCS

phones. The following summarizes

what is know – and what remains

unknown – about whether these

products can pose a hazard to

health, and what can be done to

minimize any potential risk. This in-

formation may be used to

respond to questions.

Why the concern?

Mobile phones emit low levels of ra-

dio frequency energy (i.e., radio fre-

quency radiation) in the microwave

range while being used. They also

emit very low levels of radio frequen-

cy energy (RF), considered non-sig-

nificant, when in the stand-by mode.

It is well known that high levels of RF

can produce biological damage

through heating effects (this is how

your microwave oven is able to cook

food). However, it is not known

whether, to what extent, or through

what mechanism, lower levels of RF

might cause adverse health effects

as well. Although some research has

been done to address these ques-

tions, no clear picture of the biologi-

cal effects of this type of radiation

has emerged to date. Thus, the avail-

able science does not allow us to

conclude that mobile phones are ab-

solutely safe, or that they are unsafe.

However, the available scientific evi-

dence does not demonstrate ad-

verse health effects associated with

the use of mobile phones.

What kinds of phones are in question?

Questions have been raised about

hand-held mobile phones, the kind

that have a built-in antenna that is

positioned close to the user's head

during normal telephone conversa-

tion. These types of mobile phones

are of concern because of the short

distance between the phone's an-

tenna – the primary source of the RF

– and the person's head. The expo-

sure to RF from mobile phones in

which the antenna is located at

greater distances from the user (on

the outside of a car, for example) is

drastically lower than that from

hand-held phones, because a per-

son's RF exposure decreases rapidly

with distance from the source. The

safety of so-called “cordless phones,”

which have a base unit connected to

the telephone wiring in a house and

which operate at far lower power

levels and frequencies, has not been

questioned.

Template: X75, Version 2.2;VAR Language: en; VAR issue date: 051116

How much evidence is there that hand-

held mobile phones might be harmful?

Briefly, there is not enough evidence

to know for sure, either way; howev-

er, research efforts are on-going.

The existing scientific evidence is

conflicting and many of the studies

that have been done to date have

suffered from flaws in their research

methods. Animal experiments inves-

tigating the effects of RF exposures

characteristic of mobile phones have

yielded conflicting results. A few ani-

mal studies, however, have suggest-

ed that low levels of RF could accel-

erate the development of cancer in

laboratory animals. In one study,

mice genetically altered to be predis-

posed to developing one type of can-

cer developed more than twice as

many such cancers when they were

exposed to RF energy compared to

controls. There is much uncertainty

among scientists about whether re-

sults obtained from animal studies

apply to the use of mobile phones.

First, it is uncertain how to apply the

results obtained in rats and mice to

humans. Second, many of the stud-

ies showed increased tumor devel-

opment used animals that had al-

ready been treated with cancer-

causing chemicals, and other studies

exposed the animals to the RF virtu-

ally continuously – up to 22 hours

per day.

For the past five years in the United

States, the mobile phone industry

has supported research into the safe-

ty of mobile phones. This research

has resulted in two findings in partic-

ular that merit additional study:

1. In a hospital-based, case-control

study, researchers looked for an asso-

ciation between mobile phone use

and either glioma (a type of brain can-

cer) or acoustic neuroma (a benign

tumor of the nerve sheath). No statis-

tically significant association was

found between mobile phone use and

acoustic neuroma. There was also no

association between mobile phone

use and gliomas when all types of

gliomas were considered together. It

should be noted that the average

length of mobile phone exposure in

this study was less than three years.

When 20 types of glioma were con-

sidered separately, however, an as-

sociation was found between mobile

phone use and one rare type of glio-

ma, neuroepithelliomatous tumors.

It is possible with multiple compari-

sons of the same sample that this as-

sociation occurred by chance. More-

over, the risk did not increase with

how often the mobile phone was

used, or the length of the calls. In

fact, the risk actually decreased with

cumulative hours of mobile phone

use. Most cancer causing agents in-

crease risk with increased exposure.

An ongoing study of brain cancers by

the National Cancer Institute is ex-

pected to bear on the accuracy and

repeatability of these results.1

2. Researchers conducted a large

battery of laboratory tests to assess

the effects of exposure to mobile

phone RF on genetic material. These

included tests for several kinds of ab-

normalities, including mutations,

chromosomal aberrations, DNA

strand breaks, and structural chang-

es in the genetic material of blood

cells called lymphocytes. None of

the tests showed any effect of the RF

except for the micronucleus assay,

which detects structural effects on

the genetic material. The cells in this

assay showed changes after expo-

sure to simulated cell phone radia-

tion, but only after 24 hours of expo-

sure. It is possible that exposing the

test cells to radiation for this long re-

sulted in heating. Since this assay is

known to be sensitive to heating,

heat alone could have caused the ab-

normalities to occur. The data al-

ready in the literature on the re-

sponse of the micronucleus assay to

RF are conflicting. Thus follow-up re-

search is necessary.2

FDA is currently working with gov-

ernment, industry, and academic

groups to ensure the proper follow-

up to these industry-funded research

findings. Collaboration with the Cel-

lular Telecommunications Industry

Association (CTIA) in particular is ex-

pected to lead to FDA providing re-

search recommendations and scien-

tific oversight of new CTIA-funded

research based on such recommen-

dations.

Two other studies of interest have

been reported recently in the

literature:

• Two groups of 18 people were ex-

posed to simulated mobile phone

signals under laboratory condi-

tions while they performed cogni-

tive function tests. There were no

changes in the subjects' ability to

recall words, numbers, or pic-

tures, or in their spatial memory,

but they were able to make choic-

es more quickly in one visual test

when they were exposed to simu-

lated mobile phone signals. This

was the only change noted among

more than 20 variables com-

pared.3

• In a study of 209 brain tumor cas-

es and 425 matched controls,

there was no increased risk of

brain tumors associated with mo-

bile phone use. When tumors did

exist in certain locations, howev-

er, they were more likely to be on

the side of the head where the

mobile phone was used. Because

this occurred in only a small num-

ber of cases, the increased likeli-

hood was too small to be

statistically significant.4

In summary, we do not have enough

information at this point to assure

the public that there are, or are not,

any low incident health problems as-

sociated with use of mobile phones.

FDA continues to work with all par-

ties, including other federal agencies

and industry, to assure that research

is undertaken to provide the neces-

sary answers to the outstanding

questions about the safety of mobile

phones.

What is known about cases of human

cancer that have been reported in users

of hand-held mobile phones?

Some people who have used mobile

phones have been diagnosed with

brain cancer. But it is important to

understand that this type of cancer

also occurs among people who have

not used mobile phones. In fact,

brain cancer occurs in the U.S. popu-

lation at a rate of about 6 new cases

per 100,000 people each year. At

that rate, assuming 80 million users

of mobile phones (a number increas-

ing at a rate of about 1 million per

month), about 4800 cases of brain

cancer would be expected each year

among those 80 million people,

whether or not they used their

phones. Thus it is not possible to tell

whether any individual's cancer

arose because of the phone, or

whether it would have happened

anyway. A key question is whether

the risk of getting a particular form

of cancer is greater among people

who use mobile phones than among

the rest of the population. One way

to answer that question is to com-

pare the usage of mobile phones

among people with brain cancer

with the use of mobile phones

among appropriately matched peo-

ple without brain cancer. This is

called a case-control study. The cur-

rent case-control study of brain can-

cers by the National Cancer Institute,

as well as the follow-up research to

be sponsored by industry, will begin

to generate this type of information.

What is FDA's role concerning the safety

of mobile phones?

Under the law, FDA does not review

the safety of radiation emitting con-

sumer products such as mobile

phones before marketing, as it does

with new drugs or medical devices.

However, the agency has authority

to take action if mobile phones are

shown to emit radiation at a level

that is hazardous to the user. In such

a case, FDA could require the manu-

facturers of mobile phones to notify

users of the health hazard and to re-

pair, replace or recall the phones so

that the hazard no longer exists.

Although the existing scientific data

do not justify FDA regulatory actions

at this time, FDA has urged the mo-

bile phone industry to take a number

of steps to assure public safety. The

agency has recommended that the

industry:

• Support needed research into pos-

sible biological effects of RF of the

type emitted by mobile phones;

• Design mobile phones in a way

that minimizes any RF exposure

to the user that is not necessary

for device function; and

• Cooperate in providing mobile

phone users with the best possible

information on what is known

about possible effects of mobile

phone use on human health.

• At the same time, FDA belongs to

an interagency working group of

the federal agencies that have re-

sponsibility for different aspects

of mobile phone safety to ensure

a coordinated effort at the federal

level. These agencies are:

• National Institute for Occupation-

al Safety and Health

• Environmental Protection Agency

• Federal Communications Com-

mission

• Occupational Health and Safety

Administration

• National Telecommunications and

Information Administration

The National Institutes of Health also

participates in this group.

In the absence of conclusive information

about any possible risk, what can con-

cerned individuals do?

If there is a risk from these products –

and at this point we do not know that

there is – it is probably very small. But

if people are concerned about avoid-

ing even potential risks, there are sim-

ple steps they can take to do so. For

example, time is a key factor in how

much exposure a person receives.

Those persons who spend long peri-

ods of time on their hand-held mobile

phones could consider holding

lengthy conversations on convention-

al phones and reserving the hand-

held models for shorter conversations

or for situations when other types of

phones are not available.

People who must conduct extended

conversations in their cars every day

could switch to a type of mobile

phone that places more distance be-

tween their bodies and the source of

the RF, since the exposure level drops

off dramatically with distance. For ex-

ample, they could switch to:

• a mobile phone in which the an-

tenna is located outside the vehi-

cle,

• a hand-held phone with a built-in

antenna connected to a different

antenna mounted on the outside

of the car or built into a separate

package, or

• a headset with a remote antenna

to a mobile phone carried at the

waist.

Ten Driving Safety

Tips

Your BenQ wireless phone gives you

the power to communicate by voice

– almost anywhere, anytime. But an

important responsibility accompa-

nies the benefits of wireless phones,

one that every user must uphold.

When driving a car, driving is your

first responsibility. When using your

wireless phone behind the wheel of

a car, practice good common sense

and remember the following tips:

Get to know your phone and its features

such as speed dial and redial.

Carefully read your instruction man-

ual and learn to take advantage of

valuable features most phones offer

including, automatic redial and

memory dial – most phones can

store up to 99 numbers in memory

dial. Also, work to memorize the

phone keypad so you can use the

speed dial function without taking

your attention off the road.

When available, use a hands-free device.

A number of hands-free wireless

phone accessories are readily avail-

able today. Whether you choose an

installed mounted device for your

phone or a speaker phone accessory,

take advantage of these devices if

they are available to you.

Position your phone within easy reach.

Make sure you place your wireless

phone within easy reach and where

you can grab it without removing

your eyes from the road. If you get

an incoming call at an inconvenient

time, let your voicemail answer it for

you.

Suspend conversations during hazard-

ous driving conditions or situations.

Let the person you are speaking to

know you are driving; if necessary,

suspend the call in heavy traffic or

hazardous weather conditions. Rain,

sleet, snow and ice can be hazard-

ous, but so is heavy traffic. As a driv-

er, your first responsibility is to pay

attention to the road.

Do not take notes or look up

phone numbers while driving.

If you are reading an address book or

business card while driving a car, or

writing a “to do” list, then you are not

watching where you are going. It’s

common sense. Don’t get caught in a

dangerous situation because you are

reading or writing and not paying at-

tention to the road or nearby

vehicles.

Dial sensibly and assess the traffic.

If possible, place calls when you are

not moving or before pulling into

traffic. Try to plan your calls before

Ten Driving Safety Tips162

left page (162) of EF81 KESTREL FCC us-en, (31.01.2006, 10:25)

Template: X75, Version 2.2;VAR Language: en; VAR issue date: 051116

you begin your trip, or attempt to co-

incide your calls with times you may

be stopped at a stop sign, red light or

otherwise stationary. But if you need

to dial while driving, follow this sim-

ple tip – dial only a few numbers,

check the road and your mirrors, then

continue.

Do not engage in stressful or emotional

conversations that may be distracting.

Stressful or emotional conversations

and driving do not mix – they are dis-

tracting and even dangerous when

you are behind the wheel. Make peo-

ple you are talking with aware you

are driving and if necessary, suspend

phone conversations that have the

potential to divert your attention

from the road.

Use your phone to call for help.

Your wireless phone is one of the

greatest tools you can own to pro-

tect yourself and your family in dan-

gerous situations – with your phone

at your side, help is only three num-

bers away. Dial 9-1-1 in the case of

fire, traffic accident, road hazard, or

medical emergency. Remember, it is

a free call on your wireless phone.

Use your phone to help others in

emergencies.

Your wireless phone provides you a

perfect opportunity to be a “good Sa-

maritan” in your community. If you

see an auto accident, crime in

progress or other serious emergen-

cies where lives are in danger, call

9-1-1, as you would want others to

do for you.

Call roadside assistance or a special

wireless non-emergency assistance

number when necessary.

Certain situations you encounter

while driving may require attention,

but are not urgent enough to merit a

call to 9-1-1. But you can still use

your wireless phone to lend a hand.

If you see a broken-down vehicle

posing no serious hazard, a broken

traffic signal, a minor traffic accident

where no one appears injured, or a

vehicle you know to be stolen, call

roadside assistance or other special

non-emergency wireless numbers.

and their respective affiliates own

the Software and all rights, including

without limitation including propri-

etary rights therein, are protected by

other applicable national laws of the

country in which it is being used. The

structure, organization and code of

the Software are the valuable trade

secrets and confidential information.

platforms or languages, if You re-

ceive the Software on multiple me-

dia, of if You otherwise receive mul-

tiple copies of the Software, the

censed Software could lead direclty

to death, personal injury, or severe

physical or environmental damage

or financial loss.

9. Limitation of liability.

ness, loss of business information or

for any special, direct, indirect, inci-

dental, economic, cover, punitive,

special or consequential damages,

however caused and whether arising

under contract, tort, negligence, or

other theory of liability arising out of

the use of or inability to use the Soft-

ware, even if Licensor or its Software

suppliers are advised of the possibili-

ty of such damages. Because some

countries/states/jurisdictions do not

ability, but may allow liability to be

limited, in such cases, the liability of

Licensor, its Software suppliers and

their respective affiliates and em-

ployees shall be limited to, at Licen-

sor's option, either (a) return of the

price paid less a reasonable amount

for usage, or (b) repair or replacment

accordance with the requirements of

the limited warranty.

ment shall prejudice the statutory

rights of any party dealing as a con-

sumer. Nothing contained in this

Agreement limits Licensor's liability

to You in the event of death or per-

sonal injury resulting from Licensor's

negligence if law prohibits such a

limitation. Licensor is acting on be-

half of its software suppliers and

their respective employees and affili-

ates for the purpose of disclaiming,

excluding and/or restricting obliga-

tions, warranties and liability as pro-

vided in this clause 9, but in no other

respects and for no other purpose.

ble restrictions, laws or regulations,

or without all necessary approvals.

and construed in accordance with

the laws of the State of California
