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 (RF) 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.
CAUTION

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).
Safety Guidelines
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:
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 15cm (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 15cm (6 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 .
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
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
Turn your phone OFF in any facility
where posted notices so require.

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

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 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
Safety Guidelines
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 FDAs 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:
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
Safety Guidelines
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.
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
Safety Guidelines
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 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/)
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.
Safety Guidelines
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
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
Safety Guidelines
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
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:
Get to know your wireless phone
and its features such as speed
dial and redial. Carefully read
1
Safety Guidelines
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.
When available, use a hands-free
device. A number of hands-free
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.
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.

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.
Do not take notes or look up
phone numbers while driving. If
you arereading 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.
Dial sensibly and assess the
traffic; if possible, place calls
when you are not moving or
4
5
6
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
7
8
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!
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.
Call roadside assistance or a
special wireless non-emergency
assistance number when
necessary. Certain situations
you encounter while driving
9
10
Safety Guidelines
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.

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 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.
In the example to the left, if a hearing aid meets
the M2 level rating and the wireless phone meets
the M3 level rating, the sum of the two values
equal M5. This should provide the hearing aid user
with “normal usage” while using their hearing aid
with the particular wireless phone. “Normal usage” in this context
is defined as a signal quality that’s acceptable for normal
operation.
The M mark is intended to be synonymous with the U mark. The T
mark is intended to be synonymous with the UT mark. The M and T
marks are recommended by the Alliance for Telecommunications
Industries Solutions (ATIS). The U and UT marks are referenced in
Section 20.19 of the FCC Rules. The HAC rating and measurement
procedure are described in the American National Standards
Institute (ANSI) C63.19 standard.
When you're talking on a cell phone, it's recommended that you
turn the BT (Bluetooth) mode off for HAC.
