Safety Guidelines
TIA Safety Information
Provided herein is the complete TIA Safety Information for
Wireless Handheld phones. Inclusion of the text covering
Pacemakers, Hearing Aids, and Other Medical Devices is
required in the owner’s manual for CTIA Certification. Use of
the remaining TIA language is encouraged when appropriate.
Exposure to Radio Frequency Signal
Your wireless handheld portable telephone is a lowpower
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 (C95.1).
*American National Standards Institute;National Council on
Radiation Protection and Measurements;International
Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection
The design of your phone complies with the FCC guidelines
(and those standards).
Antenna Care
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna.
Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments 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:
]Do not touch the antenna unnecessarily when the phone is
in use. Contact with the antenna affects call quality and may
cause the phone to operate at a higher power level than
otherwise needed.
Driving
Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless phones
in the areas where you drive. Always obey them. Also, if using
your phone while driving, please:
78
Safety Guidelines
]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.
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from 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 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:
]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
potential for interference.
]If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking
place, turn your phone OFF immediately.
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.
Other Medical Devices
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. Your physician
may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.
Health Care Facilities
Turn your phone OFF in health care facilities when any
regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so.
Hospitals or health care facilities may use 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.
79
Safety Guidelines
Posted Facilities
Turn your phone OFF in any facility where posted notices so
require.
Aircraft
FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while in the air. Turn
your phone OFF before boarding an aircraft.
Blasting Areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone
OFF when in a ‘blasting areas or in areas posted: ‘Turn off two-
way radio’. Obey all signs and instructions.
Potentially Explosive Atmosphere
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, marked clearly. Potential areas may include:
fueling areas (such as gasoline 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 engine.
For Vehicles Equipped with an Air Bag
An air bag inflates with great force. DO NOT place objects,
including either installed or portable wireless equipment, in the
area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. If in-
vehicle wireless equipment is improperly installed and the air
bag inflates, serious injury could result.

FDA Consumer Update
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration Center for Devices and
Radiological Health Consumer Update on Mobile Phones.
1. Do wireless phones pose a health hazard?
The available scientific evidence does not show that any
health problems are associated with using wireless phones.
There is no proof, however, that wireless phones are
absolutely safe. Wireless phones emit low levels of
radiofrequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while
being used. They also emit very low levels of RF when in the
standby 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 the FDA’s role concerning the safety of wireless
phones?
Under the law, the 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, the 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, the FDA has urged the wireless phone
industry to take a number of steps, including the following:
82
Safety Guidelines
]Support needed research into possible biological effects
of RF of the type emitted by wireless phones;
]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.
The 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
]Occupational Safety and Health Administration
(Administración de la seguridad y salud laborales)
]Occupational Safety and Health Administration
]National Telecommunications and Information
Administration
The National Institutes of Health participates in some
interagency working group activities, as well.
The 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. The FCC
relies on the FDA and other health agencies for safety
questions about wireless phones.
The 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 handheld 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 FCC safety guidelines that
were developed with the advice of the 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.
83
Safety Guidelines
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 pre-disposed 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 neuroma, 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.
6. What is the FDA doing to find out more about the possible
health effects of wireless phone RF?
The 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). The FDA has been a leading
84
Safety Guidelines
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. The FDA and
the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association
(CTIA) have a formal Cooperative Research and Development
Agreement (CRADA) to do research on wireless phone
safety. The FDA provides the scientific oversight, obtaining
input from experts in government, industry, and academic
organizations. CTIA-funded research is conducted through
contracts with 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.
7. How can I find out how much radio frequency 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 radio frequency energy (RF) exposures. The FCC
established these guidelines in consultation with the 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.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety) 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.
8. What has the FDA done to measure the radio frequency
energy coming from wireless phones?
The Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) is
developing a technical standard for measuring the radio
frequency 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 Spatial- Peak
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
tissuesimulating model of the human head. Standardized SAR
test methodology is expected to greatly improve the
85
Safety Guidelines
consistency of measurements made at 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.
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?
The 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.
11. What about wireless phone interference with medical
equipment?
Radio frequency energy (RF) from wireless phones can
interact with some electronic devices. For this reason, the
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
86
Safety Guidelines
Association for the Advancement of Medical instrumentation
(AAMI). The final draft, a joint effort by the 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. The 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 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. The FDA
continues to monitor the use of wireless phones for possible
interactions with other medical devices. Should harmful
interference be found to occur, the FDA will conduct testing
to assess the interference and work to resolve the problem.

10 Driver Safety Tips
Your wireless phone gives you the powerful ability to
communicate by voice almost anywhere, anytime. An
important responsibility accompanies the benefits of wireless
phones, one that every user must uphold.
When operating 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:
1. Get to know your wireless phone and its features such as
speed dial and redial. Carefully read your instruction manual
and learn to take advantage of valuable features most
phones offer, including automatic redial and memory. Also,
work to memorize the phone keypad so you can use the
speed dial function without taking your attention off the
road.
2. When available, use a hands-free device. A number of
hands-free wireless phone accessories are readily available
87
Safety Guidelines
today. Whether you choose an installed mounted device for
your wireless phone or a speaker phone accessory, take
advantage of these devices if available to you.
3. Position your wireless phone within easy reach. Make sure
you place your wireless phone within easy reach and where
you can reach it without removing your eyes from the road.
If you get an incoming call at an inconvenient time, if
possible, let your voicemail answer it for you.
4. Suspend conversations during hazardous driving conditions
or situations. Let the person you are speaking with know you
are driving; if necessary, suspend the call in heavy traffic or
hazardous weather conditions. Rain, sleet, snow and ice can
be hazardous, but so is heavy traffic. As a driver, your first
responsibility is to pay attention to the road.
5. Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving. If
you are reading an address book or business card, or writing
a “to-do” list while driving a car, you are not watching
where you are going. It is common sense. Don’t get caught
in a dangerous situation because you are reading or writing
and not paying attention to the road or nearby vehicles.
6. 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 you begin your trip or attempt to
coincide 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 simple tip— dial only a few
numbers, check the road and your mirrors, then continue.
7. Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that
may be distracting. Stressful or emotional conversations and
driving do not mix; they are distracting and even dangerous
when you are behind the wheel of a car. Make people you
are talking with aware you are driving and if necessary,
suspend conversations which have the potential to divert
your attention from the road.
8. Use your wireless phone to call for help. Your wireless
phone is one of the greatest tools you can own to protect
yourself and your family in dangerous situations — with your
phone at your side, help is only three numbers away. Dial
911 or other local emergency number in the case of fire,
traffic accident, road hazard or medical emergency.
Remember, it is a free call on your wireless phone!
9. Use your wireless phone to help others in emergencies. Your
wireless phone provides you a perfect opportunity to be a
“Good Samaritan” in your community. If you see an auto
accident, crime in progress or other serious emergency
where lives are in danger, call 911 or other local emergency
number, as you would want others to do for you.
10. 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 for
emergency services. 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
88
Safety Guidelines
traffic accident where no one appears injured or a vehicle.
you know to be stolen, call roadside assistance or other
special non-emergency wireless number.

Consumer Information on SAR
(Specific Absorption Rate)
This Model Phone Meets the Government’s Requirements for
Exposure to Radio Waves.
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is
designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits
for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) 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 1.6W/kg. * Tests for
SAR are conducted using standard operating positions
specified by the FCC with the phone transmitting at its highest
certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although
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. Because the phone is designed to
operate at multiple power levels 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 1.06 W/kg and when
worn on the body, as described in this user’s manual, is 1.27
W/kg. (Body-worn measurements differ among phones
models, depending upon available accessories and FCC
requirements.) While there may be differences between SAR
levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet
the government requirement for safe exposure.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model
phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance
with the FCC RF emission 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/fccid after
searching on FCC ID BEJCU500.
Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can
89
Safety Guidelines
be found on the Cellular Telecommunications Industry
Association (CTIA) website at http://www.wow-com.com
*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.
