Consumer Information About Radio
Frequency Emissions
Your wireless phone, which contains a radio transmitter and
receiver, emits radio frequency energy during use. The following
consumer information addresses commonly asked questions about
the health effects of wireless phones.
Are wireless phones safe?
Scientific research on the subject of wireless phones and radio
frequency (“RF”) energy has been conducted worldwide for
many years, and continues. In the United States, the Food and
Drug Administration (“FDA”) and the Federal Communications
Commission (“FCC”) set policies and procedures for wireless
phones. The FDA issued a website publication on health issues
related to cell phone usage where it states, “The scientific
community at large … believes that the weight of scientific
evidence does not show an association between exposure
to radiofrequency (RF) from cell phones and adverse health
outcomes. Still the scientific community does recommend
conducting additional research to address gaps in knowledge. That
research is being conducted around the world and FDA continues
to monitor developments in this field. You can access the joint
FDA/FCC website at http://www.fda.gov (under “c”in the subject
index, select Cell Phones > Research). You can also contact the
FDA toll-free at (888) 463-6332 or (888) INFO-FDA. In June 2000,
the FDA entered into a cooperative research and development
agreement through which additional scientific research is being
conducted. The FCC issued its own website publication stating

that “there is no scientific evidence that proves that wireless
phone usage can lead to cancer or a variety of other problems,
including headaches, dizziness or memory loss.” This publication
is available at http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/ cellular.html or through the
FCC at (888) 225-5322 or (888) CALL-FCC.
What does “SAR” mean?
In 1996, the FCC, working with the FDA, the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency, and other agencies, established RF exposure
safety guidelines for wireless phones in the United States. Before
a wireless phone model is available for sale to the public, it must
be tested by the manufacturer and certified to the FCC that it
does not exceed limits established by the FCC. One of these limits
is expressed as a Specific Absorption Rate, or “SAR.” SAR is a
measure of the rate of absorption of RF energy in the body. Tests
for SAR are conducted with the phone transmitting at its highest
power level in all tested frequency bands. Since 1996, the FCC has
required that the SAR of handheld wireless phones not exceed 1.6
watts per kilogram, averaged over one gram of tissue.
Although the SAR is determined at the highest power level, the
actual SAR value of a wireless phone while operating can be less
than the reported SAR value. This is because the SAR value may
vary from call to call, depending on factors such as proximity to
a cell site, the proximity of the phone to the body while in use,
and the use of hands-free devices. For more information about
SARs, see the FCC’s OET Bulletins 56 and 65 at http://www.fcc.
gov/Bureaus/Engineering_Technology/Documents/bulletins or
visit the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association website
at http://www.ctia.org/consumer_info/index.cfm/AID/10371. You
NEXUS 4 SAFETY & WARRANTY
may also wish to contact the manufacturer of your phone.
Can I minimize my RF exposure?
If you are concerned about RF, there are several simple steps
you can take to minimize your RF exposure. You can, of course,
reduce your talk time. You can place more distance between
your body and the source of the RF, as the exposure level drops
off dramatically with distance. The FDA/FCC website states that
“hands-free kits can be used with wireless phones for convenience
and comfort. These systems reduce the absorption of RF energy
in the head because the phone, which is the source of the RF
emissions, will not be placed against the head. On the other hand,
if the phone is mounted against the waist or other part of the
body during use, then that part of the body will absorb more RF
energy. Wireless phones marketed in the U.S. are required to meet
safety requirements regardless of whether they are used against
the head or against the body. Either configuration should result
in compliance with the safety limit.” Also, if you use your wireless
phone while in a car, you can use a phone with an antenna on
the outside of the vehicle. You should also read and follow your
wireless phone manufacturer’s instructions for the safe operation
of your phone.

The FDA/FCC website states that “the scientific evidence does
not show a danger to users of wireless communication devices,

groups sponsored by other national governments have advised
that children be discouraged from using wireless phones at all”.

made such a recommendation in December 2000. In this report a
group of independent experts noted that no evidence exists that
using a cell phone causes brain tumors or other ill effects. [The
UK’s] recommendation to limit cell phone use by children was
strictly precautionary; it was not based on scientific evidence that
any health hazard exists. A copy of the UK’s leaflet is available at
http://www.dh.gov.uk (search “mobile”), or you can write to: NRPB,
Chilton, Didcot, Oxon OX11 ORQ, United Kingdom. Copies of the
UK’s annual reports on mobile phones and RF are available online
at www.iegmp.org.uk and http://www.hpa.org.uk/radiation/

exposure may choose to restrict their children’s wireless phone
use.

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 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
NEXUS 4 SAFETY & WARRANTY
13
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 0.00 W/kg and when worn on the body, as described
in this user guide, is 0.00 W/kg (body-worn measurements differ
among phone 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 ZNFXXX. Additional information on Specific Absorption
Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications

* 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.
FCC Hearing-Aid Compatibility (HAC)
Regulations for Wireless Devices
On July 10, 2003, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) Report and Order in WT Docket 01-309 modified the
exception of wireless phones under the Hearing Aid Compatibility
Act of 1988 (HAC Act) to require digital wireless phones be
compatible with hearing-aids. The intent of the HAC Act is to
ensure reasonable access to telecommunications services for
persons with hearing disabilities.
While some wireless phones are used near some hearing devices
(hearing aids and cochlear implants), users may detect a buzzing,
humming, or whining noise. Some hearing devices are more
immune than others to this interference noise, and phones also
vary in the amount of interference they generate.
The wireless telephone industry has developed a rating system for
wireless phones, to assist hearing device users to find phones that
may be compatible with their hearing devices. Not all phones have
been rated. Phones that are rated have the rating on their box or a
label located on the box.
The ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending on
NEXUS 4 SAFETY & WARRANTY
15
the user's hearing device and hearing loss. If your hearing device
happens to be vulnerable to interference, you may not be able to
use a rated phone successfully. Trying out the phone with your
hearing device is the best way to evaluate it for your personal
needs.
M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and are
likely to generate less interference to hearing devices than phones
that are not labeled. M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.
T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 or T4 meet FCC requirements and are
likely to generate less interference to hearing devices than phones
that are not labeled. T4 is the better/ higher of the two ratings.
Hearing devices may also be rated. Your hearing device
manufacturer or hearing health professional may help you find this
rating. Higher ratings mean that the hearing device is relatively
immune to interference noise. The hearing aid and wireless phone
rating values are then added together. A sum of 5 is considered
acceptable for normal use. A sum of 6 is considered for best use.

Caution:
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.
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.

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 your
doctor.

TIA Safety Information
The following is the complete TIA Safety Information for wireless
handheld phones.
Exposure to Radio Frequency Signal
Your wireless handheld portable phone is a low power radio
transmitter and receiver. When ON, it receives and 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)
*American National Standards Institute; National Council
on Radiation Protection and Measurements; International
Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection
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).

Tips on Efficient Operation
For your phone to operate most efficiently:
Don’t 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.
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 (6) inches from
their pacemaker when the phone is turned ON;

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s Center for Devices and
Radiological Health Consumer Update on Mobile Phones:
1. Do wireless phones pose a health hazard?
Alt
ac
nu
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 Radio Frequency (RF) energy
in the microwave range while being used. They also emit very low
levels of RF when in 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 radiationemitting 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 Radio Frequency (RF) energy at a level

rs
TY
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:
• 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
• 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
NEXUS 4 SAFETY & WARRANTY
31
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 Radio Frequency (RF) energy 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.

(RF) energy 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 do not 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
NEXUS 4 SAFETY & WARRANTY
33
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 ten 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 Radio Frequency (RF)
energy.
The FDA has been a leading participant in the World Health
Organization International Electro Magnetic 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.

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 (RF) energy 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
phones 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.
NEXUS 4 SAFETY & WARRANTY
35
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 (RF) energy 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
tissue-simulating model of the human head. Standardized SAR
test methodology is expected to greatly improve the 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.

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 Radio Frequency
(RF) energy. 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 does 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 Radio Frequency (RF) energy, 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.
NEXUS 4 SAFETY & WARRANTY
37
11. What about wireless phone interference with medical
equipment?
(ht
Radio Frequency (RF) energy from wireless phones can interact
with some electronic devices. For this reason, the FDA helped
develop a detailed test method to measure Electro Magnetic
Interference (EMI) of implanted cardiac pacemakers and
defibrillators from wireless telephones. This test method is
(ht
now part of a standard sponsored by the 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

interference be found to occur, the FDA will conduct testing to
assess the interference and work to resolve the problem.

Driving
Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless phones in
the areas where you drive and always obey them. Also, if using
your phone while driving, please observe the following:
• 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 or the law require it.
10 Driver Safety Tips
TY
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.
NEXUS 4 SAFETY & WARRANTY

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 handsfree wireless phone accessories are readily available 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. 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. Don’t take notes or look up phone numbers while driving. If you
are reading an address book or business card, or writing a “todo” list while driving a car, you are not watching where you are
going. It is common sense. Do not get caught in a dangerous

situation because you are reading or writing and not paying
attention 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 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.
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.
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’s a free call on
your wireless phone!
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.
NEXUS 4 SAFETY & WARRANTY

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 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.
The above tips are meant as general guidelines. Before deciding
to use your mobile device while operating a vehicle, it is
recommended that you consult your applicable jurisdiction’s local
laws or other regulations regarding such use. Such laws or other
regulations may prohibit or otherwise restrict the manner in which
a driver may use his or her phone while operating a vehicle.

7.11 Warranty Laws
The following laws govern warranties that arise in retail sales of
consumer goods:
• The California Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act [CC
§§1790 et seq],
• The California Uniform Commercial Code, Division Two [Com C
§§2101 et seq], and
• The federal Magnuson-Moss Warranty Federal Trade
Commission Improvement Act [15 USC §§2301 et seq; 16 CFR
Parts 701– 703]. A typical Magnuson-Moss Act warranty is a
written promise that the product is free of defects or a written
promise to refund, repair, or replace defective goods. [See 15
USC §2301(6).] Remedies include damages for failing to honor
a written warranty or service contract or for violating disclosure
provisions. [See 15 USC §2310(d).] Except for some labeling
and disclosure requirements, the federal Act does not preempt
state law. [See 15 USC §2311.]
The Consumer Warranty Act does not affect the rights and
obligations of parties under the state Uniform Commercial Code,
except the provisions of the Act prevail over provisions of the
Commercial Code when they conflict. [CC §1790.3.]
For purposes of small claims actions, this course will focus on
rights and duties under the state laws.
