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 ownerís 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)
68
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;
NationalCouncil on Radiation Protection and
Measurements;International Commission on NonIonizing RadiationProtection
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.
Safety Guidelines
Tips on Efficient Operation
Pacemakers
For your phone to operate most efficiently:
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.
] 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

FDA Consumer Update
The U.S. Food and Drug Administrationís 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
73
Safety Guidelines
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
74
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 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.
Safety Guidelines
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 cancercausing 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,
75
Safety Guidelines
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.
76
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
Safety Guidelines
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 SpatialPeak Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) in the Human
Body Due to Wireless Communications Devices:
Experimental Techniques,’ sets forth the first
consistent test methodology for measuring the rate
at which RF is deposited in the heads of wireless
phone users. The test method uses a 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
77
Safety Guidelines
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
78
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
Safety Guidelines
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.

Safety Guidelines
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 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.
80
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
Safety Guidelines
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!
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.

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
