EXPOSURE TO RADIO FREQUENCY SIGNALS
Your wireless handheld portable telephone is a low power radio transmitter and receiver. When it is ON,
it receives and also sends out radio frequency (RF) signals. In August 1996, the Federal Communications
Commissions (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for handheld wireless
phones. Those guidelines are consistent with the safety standards previously set by both U.S.
and international standards bodies:
ANSI C95.1 (1992) *
NCRP Report 86 (1986) *
ICNIRP (1996) *
Those standards were based on comprehensive and periodic evaluations of the relevant scientific literature. For
example, over 120 scientists, engineers, and physicians from universities, government health agencies, and industry
reviewed the available body of research to develop the ANSI Standard (C951).
The design of your phone complies with the FCC guidelines (and those standards).
1: American National Standards Institute.
2: National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements.
3: International Commission on Nonionizing Radiation Protection.

ANTENNA SAFETY
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments
could impair call quality, damage the phone, or result in violation of FCC regulations. Please contact your local dealer
for replacement antenna.
Do not use the phone with a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into contact with the skin, a minor burn
may result. Please contact your local dealer for replacement antenna.

DRIVING SAFETY
Talking on the phone while driving is extremely dangerous and is illegal in some states. Remember, safety comes
first. Check the laws and regulations on the use of phones in the areas where you drive. Always obey them. Also, if
using your phone while driving, please:
29

30

• 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.
If you must use the phone while driving, please use one-touch, speed dialing, and auto answer modes.
An airbag inflates with great force. DO NOT place objects, including both installed or portable wireless equipment,
in the area over the airbag or in the air bag deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is improperly installed
and the air bag inflates, serious injury could result.
WARNING: Failure to follow these instructions may lead to serious personal injury and possible property damage.

Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information. Turn your phone OFF in healthcare facilities
when any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or healthcare 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.

POSTED FACILITIES

ELECTRONIC DEVICES

Turn your phone OFF where posted notices so require.

Your wireless handheld portable telephone is a low power radio transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it receives
and also sends out radio frequency (RF) signals. Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF energy.
However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals from your wireless phone.
Therefore, use of your phone must be restricted in certain situations.

OTHER SAFETY GUIDELINES

PACEMAKERS
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation of six (6”) inches
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:

AIRCRAFT
FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while in the air. Turn your phone OFF before boarding an aircraft. Always
request and obtain prior consent and approval of an authorized airline representative before using your phone
aboard an aircraft.
Always follow the instructions of the airline representative whenever using your phone aboard an aircraft, to prevent
any possible interference with airborne electronic equipment.

BLASTING AREAS

• ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches from your pacemaker when the phone is turned on.

To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone OFF when in a “blasting area” or in areas posted: “Turn
off two-way radio.” Obey all signs and instructions.

• Do not carry the phone in a breast pocket.

POTENTIALLY EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES

• Use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference.

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 call the customer service line to discuss alternatives).

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 atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked. They include fueling areas
such as gas stations; below 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 particles, such as grain, dust,
or metal powders; and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle’s engine.

OTHER MEDICAL DEVICES

PRECAUTIONS

• If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, turn your phone OFF immediately.

HEARING AIDS

If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if they are
adequately shielded from external RF energy.

31

Your Handheld Portable Telephone is a high quality piece of equipment. Before operating, read all instructions and
cautionary markings on (1) USB AC Adapter (2) Battery.

32

Failure to follow the directions below could result in serious bodily injury and/or property damage due to battery
liquid leakage, fire or rupture.
• DO NOT use this equipment in an extreme environment where high temperature or high humidity exists.
• DO NOT abuse the equipment. Avoid striking, shaking or shocking. When not using, lay down the unit to avoid
possible damage due to instability.
• DO NOT expose this equipment to rain or spilled beverages.
• DO NOT use unauthorized accessories.
•D
 O NOT disassemble the phone or its accessories. If service or repair is required, return unit to an authorized
cellular service center. If unit is disassembled, the risk of electric shock or fire may result.
• DO NOT short-circuit the battery terminals with metal items etc.

SAFETY INFORMATION FOR FCC RF EXPOSURE
WARNING! READ THIS INFORMATION BEFORE USING
CAUTIONS
In August 1996 the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the United States with its action in Report and
Order FCC 96-326 adopted an updated safety standard for human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic
energy emitted by FCC regulated transmitters. Those guidelines are consistent with the safety standard previously
set by both U.S. and international standards bodies.
The design of this phone complies with the FCC guidelines and these international standards.

BODY-WORN OPERATION
This device was tested for typical body-worn operations with the back of the phone kept 1 cm. from the body.
To maintain compliance requirements, use only belt-clips, holsters or similar accessories that maintain a 1 cm
separation distance between the user's Body and the back of the phone, including the antenna.
The use of belt-clips, holsters and similar accessories should not contain metallic components in its assembly. The
use of accessories that do not satisfy these requirements may not comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, and
should be avoided.
For more information about RF exposure, please visit the FCC website at http://www.fcc.gov

Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission
limits for exposure to radiofrequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S.
Government. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for
the general population. The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent scientific
organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The standards include a substantial
safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption
Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg. * Tests for SAR are conducted 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 level of the phone while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because
the phone is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to reach the network.
In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output.
Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it does not
exceed the limit established by the government adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed in
positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC for each model. The highest
SAR value for this model phone when tested for use at the ear is 0.53 W/Kg and when worn on the body is 1.43
W/Kg. (Body-worn measurements differ among phone models, depending upon available accessories and FCC
requirements). While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various cellphones and at various positions,
they all meet the government requirement for RF exposure.
For body-worn operation, the cellphone meets FCC RF exposure guidelines provided that it is used with a nonmetallic accessory with the handset at least 15 mm from the body. Use of other accessories may not ensure
compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.
SAR information on this model phone is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ea after searching on JYCBLADE.
Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications
Industry Association (CTIA) web-site at http://www.ctia.org.
* In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg)
averaged over one gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional
protection for the public and to account for any variations in measurements.

HEARING AID COMPATIBILITY (HAC) FOR WIRELESS

HOW WILL I KNOW IF MY HEARING AID WILL WORK WITH A PARTICULAR DIGITAL WIRELESS
PHONE?
You’ll want to try a number of wireless phones so that you can decide which works the best with your hearing aids.
You may also want to talk with your hearing aid professional about the extent to which your hearing aids are immune
to interference, if they have wireless phone shielding, and whether your hearing aid has a HAC rating.

We believe that all of our customers should be able to enjoy the benefits of digital wireless technologies. We are
committed to providing a selection of compatible devices for our customers who wear hearing aids.
THIS PHONE HAS A HAC RATING OF M4/T4. Reference ANSI C63.19 (2011).
FCC ID: 2ACCJN011

FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT HEARING AIDS AND DIGITAL WIRELESS PHONE

WHAT IS HEARING AID COMPATIBILITY?

FDA CONSUMER UPDATE

The Federal Communications Commission has implemented rules and a rating system designed to enable people
who wear hearing aids to effectively use these wireless telecommunications devices. The standard for compatibility
of digital wireless phones with hearing aids is set forth in American National Standard Institute (ANSI) standard
C63.19. There are two sets of ANSI standards with ratings from one to four (four being the best rating): an “M”
rating for reduced interference making it easier to hear conversations on the phone when using the hearing aid
microphone, and a “T” rating that enables the phone to be used with hearing aids operating in the telecoil mode thus
reducing unwanted background noise.

1. Do wireless phones pose a health hazard?

HOW WILL I KNOW WHICH WIRELESS PHONES ARE HEARING AID COMPATIBLE?
The Hearing Aid Compatibility rating is displayed on the wireless phone box.
A phone is considered Hearing Aid Compatible for acoustic coupling (microphone mode) if it has an “M3” or “M4”
rating. A digital wireless phone is considered Hearing Aid Compatible for inductive coupling (telecoil mode) if it has
a “T3” or “T4” rating.
This phone has been tested and rated for use with hearing aids for some of the wireless technologies that it uses.
However, there may be some newer wireless technologies used in this phone that have not been tested yet for use
with hearing aids. It is important to try the different features of this phone thoroughly and in different locations, using
your hearing aid or cochlear implant to determine if you hear any interfering noise. Consult your service provider
about its return and exchange policies and for information on hearing aid compatibility.

U.S. FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION - CENTER FOR DEVICES AND
RADIOLOGICAL
HEALTH CONSUMER UPDATE ON WIRELESS PHONES
The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are associated with using wireless phones.
There is no proof, that wireless phones are absolutely safe. They also emit very low levels of RF when in the idle mode.
Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue), exposure to low level RF that does not
produce heating effects causes no known adverse health effects. Many studies of low level RF exposures have not
found any biological effects. Some studies have suggested that some biological effects may occur, but such findings
have not been confirmed by additional research. In some cases, other researchers have had difficulty in reproducing
those studies, or in determining the reasons for inconsistent results.

2. What is FDA’s role concerning the safety of wireless phones?
Under the law, FDA does not review the safety of radiation-emitting consumer products such as wireless phones
before they can be sold, as it does with new drugs or medical devices. However, the agency has authority to take
action if wireless phones are shown to emit radiofrequency energy (RF) at a level that is hazardous to the user. In such
a case, FDA could require the manufacturers of wireless phones to notify users of the health hazard and to repair,
replace or recall the phones so that the hazard no longer exists. Although the existing scientific data do not justify
FDA regulatory actions, FDA has urged the wireless phone industry to take a number of steps, including the following:
• Support needed research into possible biological effects of RF of the type emitted by wireless phones;

35

36

• Design wireless phones in a way that minimizes any RF exposure to the user that is not necessary for device
function;
and
• Cooperate in providing users of wireless phones with the best possible information on possible effects of wireless
phone use on human health.
FDA belongs to an interagency working group of the federal agencies that have responsibility for different aspects
of RF safety to ensure coordinated efforts at the federal level. The following agencies belong to this working group:
• National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health
• Environmental Protection Agency
• Federal Communications Commission
• Occupational Safety and Health Administration
• National Telecommunications and Information Administration
The National Institutes of Health participates in some inter-agency working group activities, as well. FDA shares
regulatory responsibilities for wireless phones with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). All phones
that are sold in the United States must comply with FCC safety guidelines that limit RF exposure. FCC relies on FDA
and other health agencies for safety questions about wireless phones. FCC also regulates the base stations that the
wireless phone networks rely upon. While these base stations operate at higher power than do the wireless phones
themselves, the RF exposures that people get from these base stations are typically thousands of times lower than
those they can get from wireless phones. Base stations are thus not the subject of the safety questions discussed
in this document.

3. What kinds of phones are the subject of this update?
The term “wireless phone” refers here to hand-held wireless phones with built-in antennas, often called “cell,”
“mobile,” or “PCS” phones. These types of wireless phones can expose the user to measurable radiofrequency
energy (RF) because of the short distance between the phone and the user's head. These RF exposures are limited
by Federal Communications Commission safety guidelines that were developed with the advice of FDA and other
federal health and safety agencies. When the phone is located at greater distances from the user, the exposure to RF
is drastically lower because a person’s RF exposure decreases rapidly with increasing distance from the source. The
so-called “cordless phones,” which have a base unit connected to the telephone wiring in a house, typically operate
at far lower power levels, and thus produce RF exposures far below the FCC safety limits.

37

4. What are the results of the research done already?
The research done thus far has produced conflicting results, and many studies have suffered from flaws in
their research methods. Animal experiments investigating the effects of radiofrequency energy (RF) exposures
characteristic of wireless phones have yielded conflicting results that often cannot be repeated in other laboratories.
A few animal studies, however, have suggested that low levels of RF could accelerate the development of cancer in
laboratory animals. However, many of the studies that showed increased tumor development used animals that had
been genetically engineered or treated with cancer-causing chemicals so as to be predisposed to develop cancer in
the absence of RF exposure. Other studies exposed the animals to RF for up to 22 hours per day. These conditions
are not similar to the conditions under which people use wireless phones, so we don’t know with certainty what
the results of such studies mean for human health. Three large epidemiology studies have been published since
December 2000. Between them, the studies investigated any possible association between the use of wireless
phones and primary brain cancer, glioma, meningioma, or acoustic neu-roma, tumors of the brain or salivary gland,
leukemia, or other cancers. None of the studies demonstrated the existence of any harmful health effects from
wireless phone RF exposures. However, none of the studies can answer questions about long-term exposures, since
the average period of phone use in these studies was around three years.

5. What research is needed to decide whether RF exposure from wireless phones poses a health
risk?
A combination of laboratory studies and epidemiological studies of people actually using wireless phones would
provide some of the data that are needed. Lifetime animal exposure studies could be completed in a few years.
However, very large numbers of animals would be needed to provide reliable proof of a cancer promoting effect if
one exists. Epidemiological studies can provide data that is directly applicable to human populations, but 10 or more
years’ follow-up may be needed to provide answers about some health effects, such as cancer. This is because the
interval between the time of exposure to a cancer-causing agent and the time tumors develop - if they do -may be
many, many years. The interpretation of epidemiological studies is hampered by difficulties in measuring actual RF
exposure during day-to-day use of wireless phones. Many factors affect this measurement, such as the angle at which
the phone is held, or which model of phone is used.

38

6. What is FDA doing to find out more about the possible health effects of wireless phone RF?

8. What has FDA done to measure the radiofrequency energy coming from wireless phones?

FDA is working with the U.S. National Toxicology Program and with groups of investigators around the world to
ensure that high priority animal studies are conducted to address important questions about the effects of exposure
to radiofrequency energy (RF). FDA has been a leading participant in the World Health Organization International
Electromagnetic Fields (EMF) Project since its inception in 1996. An influential result of this work has been the
development of a detailed agenda of research needs that has driven the establishment of new research programs
around the world. The Project has also helped develop a series of public information documents on EMF issues.
FDA and the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA) have a formal Cooperative Research and
Development Agreement (CRADA) to do research on wireless phone safety. FDA provides the scientific oversight,
obtaining input from experts in government, industry, and academic organizations. CTIA-funded research is
conducted through contracts to independent investigators. The initial research will include both laboratory studies
and studies of wireless phone users. The CRADA will also include a broad assessment of additional research needs
in the context of the latest research developments around the world.

The Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) is developing a technical standard for measuring the
radiofrequency energy (RF) exposure from wireless phones and other wireless handsets with the participation and
leadership of FDA scientists and engineers. The standard, “Recommended Practice for Determining the SpatialPeak Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) in the Human Body Due to Wireless Communications Devices: Experimental
Techniques,” sets forth the first consistent test methodology for measuring the rate at which RF is deposited in the
heads of wireless phone users. The test method uses a tissue-simulating model of the human head. Standardized
SAR test methodology is expected to greatly improve the consistency of measurements made by different
laboratories on the same phone. SAR is the measurement of the amount of energy absorbed in tissue, either by the
whole body or a small part of the body. It is measured in watts/kg (or milliwatts/g) of matter. This measurement is
used to determine whether a wireless phone complies with safety guidelines.

7. How can I find out how much radiofrequency energy exposure I can get by using my wireless
phone?
All phones sold in the United States must comply with Federal Communications Commission (FCC) guidelines that
limit radiofrequency energy (RF) exposures. FCC established these guidelines in consultation with FDA and the
other federal health and safety agencies. The FCC limit for RF exposure from wireless telephones is set at a Specific
Absorption Rate (SAR) of 1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg). The FCC limit is consistent with the safety standards
developed by the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineering (IEEE) and the National Council on Radiation
Protection and Measurement. The exposure limit takes into consideration the body’s ability to remove heat from the
tissues that absorb energy from the wireless phone and is set well below levels known to have effects. Manufacturers
of wireless phones must report the RF exposure level for each model of phone to the FCC. The FCC website (http://
www.fda.gov (under “c” in the subject index, select Cell Phones > Research)) gives directions for locating the FCC
identification number on your phone so you can find your phone’s RF exposure level in the online listing.

39

9. What steps can I take to reduce my exposure to radiofrequency energy from my wireless phone?
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
you are concerned about avoiding even potential risks, you can take a few simple steps to minimize your exposure to
radiofrequency energy (RF). Since time is a key factor in how much exposure a person receives, reducing the amount
of time spent using a wireless phone will reduce RF exposure.
• If you must conduct extended conversations by wireless phone every day, you could place more distance
between your body and the source of the RF, since the exposure level drops off dramatically with distance.
For example, you could use a headset and carry the wireless phone away from your body or use a wireless phone
connected to a remote antenna. Again, the scientific data do not demonstrate that wireless phones are harmful. But
if you are concerned about the RF exposure from these products, you can use measures like those described above
to reduce your RF exposure from wireless phone use.

10. What about children using wireless phones?
Scientific evidence does not show a danger to users of wireless phones, including children and teenagers. If you want
to take steps to lower exposure to radiofrequency energy (RF), the measures described above would apply to children
and teenagers using wireless phones. Reducing the time of wireless phone use and increasing the distance between
the user and the RF source will reduce RF exposure. Some groups sponsored by other national governments have
advised that children be discouraged from using wireless phones at all. For example, the government in the United
Kingdom distributed leaflets containing such a recommendation in December 2000. They noted that no evidence
exists that using a wireless phone causes brain tumors or other ill effects. Their recommendation to limit wireless
phone use by children was strictly precautionary; it was not based on scientific evidence that any health hazard exists.
40

11. What about wireless phone interference with medical equipment?
Radiofrequency energy (RF) from wireless phones can interact with some electronic devices. For this reason,
FDA helped develop a detailed test method to measure electromagnetic interference (EMI) of implanted cardiac
pacemakers and defibrillators from wireless telephones. This test method is now part of a standard sponsored by
the Association for the Advancement of Medical instrumentation (AAMI). The final draft, a joint effort by FDA, medical
device manufacturers, and many other groups, was completed in late 2000. This standard will allow manufacturers
to ensure that cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators are safe from wireless phone EMI. FDA has tested hearing aids
for interference from handheld wireless phones and helped develop a voluntary standard sponsored by the Institute
of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE). This standard specifies test methods and performance requirements
for hearing aids and wireless phones so that that no interference occurs when a person uses a “compatible” phone
and a “compatible” hearing aid at the same time. This standard was approved by the IEEE in 2000. FDA continues to
monitor the use of wireless phones for possible interactions with other medical devices. Should harmful interference
be found to occur, FDA will conduct testing to assess the interference and work to resolve the problem.

AVOID POTENTIAL HEARING LOSS
Prolonged exposure to loud sounds (including music) is the most common cause of preventable hearing loss.
Some scientific research suggests that using portable audio devices, such as portable music players and cellular
telephones, at high volume settings for long durations may lead to permanent noise-induced hearing loss. This
includes the use of headphones (including headsets, earbuds and Bluetooth® or other wireless devices). Exposure
to very loud sound has also been associated in some studies with tinnitus (a ringing in the ear), hypersensitivity to
sound and distorted hearing. Individual susceptibility to noise-induced hearing loss and other potential hearing
problems varies.

41

The amount of sound produced by a portable audio device varies depending on the nature of the sound, the device,
the device settings and the headphones. You should follow some commonsense recommendations when using any
portable audio device:
• Set the volume in a quiet environment and select the lowest volume at which you can hear adequately.
• When using headphones, turn the volume down if you cannot hear the people speaking near you or if the person
sitting next to you can hear what you are listening to.
• Do not turn the volume up to block out noisy surroundings. If you choose to listen to your portable device in a
noisy environment, use noise-cancelling headphones to block out background environmental noise.
• Limit the amount of time you listen. As the volume increases, less time is required before your hearing could be
affected.
• Avoid using headphones after exposure to extremely loud noises, such as concerts, that might cause temporary
hearing loss. Temporary hearing loss might cause unsafe volumes to sound normal.
• Do not listen at any volume that causes you discomfort. If you experience ringing in your ears, hear muffled
speech or experience any temporary hearing difficulty after listening to your portable audio device, discontinue
use and consult with your doctor.
