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 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 (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).
Safety Guidelines
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:
• 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.
10
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:
• 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.
Safety Guidelines
11
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.

FDA Consumer Update
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration Centre 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 radio frequency 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 radio frequency 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:
• 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 of wireless phones with the best possible information on
possible effects of wireless phone use on human health.
16
Safety Guidelines
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 builtin
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.
Safety Guidelines
17
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 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 longterm 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
18
Safety Guidelines
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 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 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. 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 radiofrequency energy coming from
wireless phones?
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 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.
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 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.
20
Safety Guidelines
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?
Radiofrequency 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
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 handsfree 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.
22
Safety Guidelines
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!
Safety Guidelines
23
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 nonemergency 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.

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 radiofrequency (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 1.6
W/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.
24
Safety Guidelines
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 values are:
* Head: 0.91 W/kg
* Body (Body-worn/Hotspot): 0.89 W/kg (Body 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/ea/fccid after searching on FCC ID:
ZNFH731.
Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular
Telecommunications Industry Association (CTIA) website 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.
* Product meets current FCC & IC Radio Frequency Exposure Guidelines.
