4Press down slightly and slide the 
cover until it locks into place.
 • CHARGE THE BATTERY
Before you begin, you need to prepare your phone 
by charging the battery.
1Plug the charger into a standard wall outlet; 
then connect the lead from the charger to the 
bottom of the phone.
The battery power indicator (or battery bar) appears on the screen and starts 
scrolling. If the phone is on, Charging appears also.
When the battery bar stops scrolling, the battery charge is complete. Battery 
full appears also, if the phone is on.
2Disconnect the charger from the phone.
 • IMPORTANT BATTERY INFORMATION
Use the following guidelines to obtain the best performance from your battery:
• With your phone turned off, charge your new battery for three hours before 
its first use. Use the battery until it is fully discharged. Repeat this procedure 
twice for a total of three charging cycles.
• Battery operation time may be less than the estimated times during the first 
charges. This condition is normal.
• If the battery is fully discharged, the scrolling bars may not appear immediately 
when charging.
• After the first charge, you can make and receive calls during the charging 
cycle, but the calls interrupt the charge. When the phone call ends, the charge 
will resume.
• The bars on the screen stop scrolling and remain constant when the phone is 
charged. If you leave the phone connected to the charger, the battery receives 
an additional charge.
Note: The battery will accept a “trickle charge” for an additional two hours. 
See “Reference information” on page 48 for more information on batteries.
• Charging time depends on the charger and battery used. See “Batteries” on 
page 55 for charging, talk, and standby times.

 • PROLONG BATTERY LIFE
For good operation times with NiMH batteries, discharge the battery from time to 
time by leaving your phone switched on until it turns itself off. Ignore any messages 
to recharge your battery and let the battery completely discharge.
Note: Do not attempt to discharge the battery by any other means.
 • HEADSET
Your phone is compatible with the HDC-5, HDE-2 and HDB-5 headsets.
To connect the headset:
1Plug the headset jack into the bottom of your phone.
2Put the earbud into one ear.
With the headset connected, you can make and answer calls as usual.
The microphone for the headset hangs at the side of your head. Although the 
microphone may seem far from your mouth, you can speak at a normal volume.
Note: You can set your phone to answer automatically when the headset 
is connected. See “Automatic answer” on page 29.
 •GET HELP
Find phone information
We recommend that you have the following information available before 
contacting the Nokia Customer Care Center or the service provider:
• Your billing address ZIP code
• The phone or accessory in question
• Your phone model number—located on the phone type label
• ESN (electronic serial number)—located on the phone type label
The type label is located under the battery inside the back cover. Do not remove or 
deface the label.

15 Reference information
This section provides information about your phone’s batteries, accessories, chargers, 
safety guidelines and technical information. Be aware that the information in this 
section is subject to change as batteries, chargers, and accessories change.
 • BATTERY STATEMENTS
Charging and Discharging
Your phone is powered by a rechargeable battery.
Note that a new battery's full performance may be achieved only after two or three 
complete charge and discharge cycles!
The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times but it will eventually 
wear out. When the operating time (talk time and standby time) is noticeably 
shorter than normal, it is time to buy a new battery.
Use only batteries approved by the phone manufacturer and recharge your battery 
only with the chargers approved by the manufacturer. Unplug the charger when 
not in use. Do not leave the battery connected to a charger for longer than a week, 
since overcharging may shorten its lifetime. If left unused, a fully charged battery 
will discharge itself over time.
Temperature extremes can affect the ability of your battery to charge; allow it to cool 
down or warm up first.
For good operation times with NiMh batteries, discharge the battery from time 
to time by leaving your phone switched on until it turns itself off (or by using the 
battery discharge facility of any approved accessory available for your phone). 
Do not attempt to discharge the battery by any other means.
Use the battery only for its intended purpose.
Never use any charger or battery which is damaged or worn out.
Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental short-circuiting can occur when a 
metallic object (coin, clip, or pen) causes direct connection of the + and - terminals 
of the battery (metal strips on the battery), for example, when you carry a spare 
battery in your pocket or purse. Short-circuiting the terminals may damage the 
battery or the connecting object.
Leaving the battery in hot or cold places, such as in a closed car in summer or 
winter conditions, will reduce the capacity and lifetime of the battery. Always try 
to keep the battery between 59°F and 77°F (15°C and 25°C). A phone with a hot or 
cold battery may temporarily not work, even when the battery is fully charged. 
Batteries' performance is particularly limited in temperatures well below freezing.

Reference information
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire!
Dispose of batteries according to applicable local regulations (for example, recycling). 
Do not dispose of as household waste.
Note: For information on how to charge and recharge your battery, refer to 
“Important battery information” on page 7.
 • PROPER CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your phone is a product of superior design and craftsmanship and should be treated 
with care. The suggestions below will help you to fulfill any warranty obligations 
and to enjoy this product for many years:
• Keep the phone and all its parts and accessories out of the reach of 
small children.
• Keep the phone dry. Precipitation, humidity and all types of liquids or moisture 
can contain minerals that will corrode electronic circuits.
• Do not use or store the phone in dusty, dirty areas. Its moving parts can 
be damaged.
• Do not store the phone in hot areas. High temperatures can shorten the life of 
electronic devices, damage batteries, and warp or melt certain plastics.
• Do not store the phone in cold areas. When it warms up (to its normal 
temperature), moisture can form inside and may damage electronic 
circuit boards.
• Do not attempt to open the phone. Nonexpert handling may damage it.
• Do not drop, knock, or shake the phone. Rough handling can break internal 
circuit boards.
• Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean 
the phone.
• Do not paint the phone. Paint can clog the moving parts and prevent 
proper operation.
• Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized 
antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the phone and may 
violate regulations governing radio devices.
All of the above suggestions apply equally to your phone, battery, charger or any 
accessory. If any of them are not working properly, take them to your nearest 
qualified service facility. The personnel there will assist you, and if necessary, 
arrange for service.

 • IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
This section provides additional safety information. A brief overview of safety can 
be found in “Safety first” on page 1.
Traffic safety
Do not use a hand-held telephone while driving a vehicle. Always secure the phone 
in its holder; do not place the phone on the passenger seat or where it can break 
loose in a collision or sudden stop.
Remember road safety always comes first!
Operating environment
Remember to follow any special regulations in force in any area and always switch 
off your phone whenever it is forbidden to use it, or when it may cause interference 
or danger.
Use the phone only in its normal operating positions.
Parts of the phone are magnetic. Metallic materials may be attracted to the phone, 
and persons with a hearing aid should not hold the phone to the ear with the hearing 
aid. Always secure the phone in its holder, because metallic materials may be attracted 
by the earpiece. Do not place credit cards or other magnetic storage media near the 
phone, because information stored on them may be erased.
Electronic devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio frequency (RF) signals. 
However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals 
from your wireless phone.
PACEMAKERS
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of 6 inches 
(approximately 15.3 cm) be maintained between a hand-held 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 6 inches (approximately 15.3 cm) 
from their pacemaker when the phone is switched 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, switch off 
your phone immediately.

Reference information
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
Operation of any radio transmitting equipment, including cellular phones, may 
interfere with the functionality of inadequately protected medical devices. Consult 
a physician or the manufacturer of the medical device to determine if they are 
adequately shielded from external RF energy or if you have any questions. Switch 
off your phone in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these areas 
instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that 
could be sensitive to external RF energy.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems 
in motor vehicles (for example, electronic fuel injection systems, electronic antiskid/
antilock braking systems, electronic speed control systems, air bag systems). 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
Switch your phone off in any facility where posted notices so require.
Potentially explosive atmospheres
Switch off your phone 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.
Users are advised to switch off the phone when at a refuelling point (service station). 
Users are reminded of the need to observe restrictions on the use of radio equipment 
in fuel depots (fuel storage and distribution areas), chemical plants, or where 
blasting operations are in progress.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often but not always clearly 
marked. They include below deck on boats; 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.
Vehicles
Only qualified personnel should service the phone or install the phone in a vehicle. 
Faulty installation or service may be dangerous and may invalidate any warranty 
which may apply to the unit.

Check regularly that all wireless phone equipment in your vehicle is mounted and 
operating properly.
Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases or explosive materials in the same 
compartment as the phone, its parts or accessories.
For vehicles equipped with an air bag, remember that an air bag inflates with great 
force. Do not place objects, including both installed or portable wireless equipment 
in the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless 
equipment is improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious injury could result.
FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while in the air. Switch off your phone 
before boarding an aircraft. The use of wireless telephones in an aircraft may be 
dangerous to the operation of the aircraft, disrupt the wireless telephone network, 
and may be illegal.
Failure to observe these instructions may lead to suspension or denial of telephone 
services to the offender, legal action or both.
 • MAKE EMERGENCY CALLS
Important: This phone, like any wireless phone, operates using radio signals, 
wireless, and landline networks as well as user-programmed functions. 
Because of this, connections in all conditions cannot be guaranteed. 
Therefore you should never rely solely upon any wireless phone for essential 
communications (for example, medical emergencies).
Emergency calls may not be possible on all wireless phone networks or when 
certain network services and/or phone features are in use. Check with local 
service providers.
To make an emergency call:
1If the phone is not on, switch it on. Check for adequate signal strength.
2Press the End key as many times as needed (for example, to exit a call, to exit 
a menu, etc.) to clear the display and ready the phone for calls. 
3Key in the emergency number for your present location (for example, 911 or 
other official emergency number). Emergency numbers vary by location.
4Press the Talk key.
If certain features are in use, (keyguard, etc.) you may first need to turn those 
features off before you can make an emergency call. Consult this user guide and 
your local wireless service provider.
When making an emergency call, remember to give all the necessary information 
as accurately as possible. Remember that your wireless phone may be the only 
means of communication at the scene of an accident - do not end the call until 
given permission to do so.

Reference information
 • CERTIFICATION INFORMATION (SAR)
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 
1.6W/kg.* Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions accepted 
by the FCC with the phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all 
tested frequency bands. Although the 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. This is because the phone is designed to operate at multiple 
power levels so as 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 (for example, at the ear and worn on the body) as required 
by the FCC for each model. The following values are the highest SAR values for this 
model phone as reported to the FCC:
When tested for use at the ear:
Nokia 1220: 1.20 W/kg
Nokia 1260: 1.23 W/kg
Nokia 1261: 1.17 W/kg
When worn on the body, as described in this user guide:
Nokia 1220: 0.87 W/kg
Nokia 1260: 0.77 W/kg
Nokia 1261: 1.02 W/kg
(Body-worn measurements differ among phone models, depending upon available 
accessories and FCC requirements). 
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones and at 
various positions, they all meet the government requirement. 
1220_1260_1261.ENv1_9310041.book  Page 53  Friday, June 13, 2003  1:54 PM

54 Copyright © Nokia 2003
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all 
reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure 
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:
LJPNKC-1X for the Nokia 1220
LJPNKW-1X for the Nokia 1260 and Nokia 1261
For body-worn operation, the Nokia 1220 and Nokia 1261 phones have been tested 
and meet the FCC RF exposure guidelines when used with the Nokia accessories 
supplied or designated for this product. Use of other accessories may not ensure 
compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.
For body-worn operation, the Nokia 1260 phone has been tested and meets the 
FCC RF exposure guidelines for use with an accessory that contains no metal and 
that positions the handset a minimum of 7/8 inch (2.2 cm) from the body. Use of 
other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.
If you do not use a body-worn accessory and are not holding the phone at the ear, 
position the handset a minimum of 7/8 inch (2.2 cm) from your body when the 
phone is switched on.
*In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones used by the 
public is 1.6 watts/kilogram (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. SAR values may vary 
depending on national reporting requirements and the network band. For SAR 
information in other regions please look under product information at 
www.nokia.com.

• Keep all accessories out of reach of small children.
• When you disconnect the power cord of any accessory, grasp and pull the plug, 
not the cord.
• Check regularly that any vehicle-installed accessories are mounted and are 
operating properly.
• Installation of any complex car accessories must be made by qualified 
personnel only.
• Use only batteries, chargers, and accessories that have been approved by the 
phone manufacturer. The use of any other types could invalidate any approval 
or warranty applying to the phone and could be dangerous. Refer to “Accessory 
safety” on page 54 for important battery usage information.

Safety is the most important call you will ever make.
A Guide to Safe and Responsible Wireless Phone Use
Tens of millions of people in the U.S. today take advantage of the unique combination 
of convenience, safety and value delivered by the wireless telephone. Quite simply, 
the wireless phone gives people the powerful ability to communicate by voice--almost 
anywhere, anytime--with the boss, with a client, with the kids, with emergency 
personnel or even with the police. Each year, Americans make billions of calls from 
their wireless phones, and the numbers are rapidly growing.
But an important responsibility accompanies those benefits, one that every wireless 
phone user must uphold. When driving a car, driving is your first responsibility. A 
wireless phone can be an invaluable tool, but good judgment must be exercised at 
all times while driving a motor vehicle--whether on the phone or not.
The basic lessons are ones we all learned as teenagers. Driving requires alertness, 
caution and courtesy. It requires a heavy dose of basic common sense---keep your head 
up, keep your eyes on the road, check your mirrors frequently and watch out for other 
drivers. It requires obeying all traffic signs and signals and staying within the speed 
limit. It means using seatbelts and requiring other passengers to do the same.
But with wireless phone use, driving safely means a little more. This brochure is a call 
to wireless phone users everywhere to make safety their first priority when behind the 
wheel of a car. Wireless telecommunications is keeping us in touch, simplifying our 
lives, protecting us in emergencies and providing opportunities to help others in need. 
When it comes to the use of wireless phones, safety is your most important call.   
Wireless Phone "Safety Tips"
Below are safety tips to follow while driving and using a wireless phone which 
should be easy to remember. 
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.
3 Position your wireless phone within easy reach. Make sure you place your 
wireless phone within easy reach and where you can grab it without removing 
your eyes from the road. If you get an incoming call at an inconvenient time, if 
possible, let your voice mail 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.

65 Copyright © Nokia 2003
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’s 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 9-1-1 or other 
local emergency number in the case of fire, traffic accident, road hazard or medical 
emergency. Remember, it is a free call on your wireless phone!
9 Use your wireless phone to help others in emergencies. Your wireless phone 
provides you a perfect opportunity to be a "Good Samaritan" in your community. 
If you see an auto accident, crime in progress or other serious emergency where 
lives are in danger, call 9-1-1 or other local emergency number, as you would want 
others to do for you.
10 Call roadside assistance or a special wireless non-emergency assistance number 
when necessary. Certain situations you encounter while driving may require 
attention, but are not urgent enough to merit a call for emergency services. But 
you still can 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.
Careless, distracted individuals and people driving irresponsibly represent a hazard 
to everyone on the road. Since 1984, the Cellular Telecommunications Industry 
Association and the wireless industry have conducted educational outreach to 
inform wireless phone users of their responsibilities as safe drivers and good 
citizens. As we approach a new century, more and more of us will take advantage of 
the benefits of wireless telephones. And, as we take to the roads, we all have a 
responsibility to drive safely.
The wireless industry reminds you to use your phone safely when driving.

Consumer Update on Wireless Phones
U.S. Food and Drug Administration
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 stand-by 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 FDA's role concerning the safety of wireless phones?
Under the law, 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, 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, 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.
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
• Federal Communications Commission
• Occupational Safety and Health Administration
• National Telecommunications and Information Administration
The National Institutes of Health participates in some interagency working group 
activities, as well.

Appendix B Message from the FDA
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. FCC relies on FDA 
and other health agencies for safety questions about wireless phones. 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 hand-held 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 
Federal Communications Commission safety guidelines that were developed with 
the advice of 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 studiesas 
around three years.

5. What research is needed to decide whether RF exposure from wireless phones 
poses a health risk?
A combination of laboratory studies and epidemiological studies of people actually 
using wireless phones would provide some of the data that are needed. Lifetime 
animal exposure studies could be completed in a few years. However, very large 
numbers of animals would be needed to provide reliable proof of a cancer 
promoting effect if one exists. Epidemiological studies can provide data that is 
directly applicable to human populations, but 10 or more years follow-up may be 
needed to provide answers about some health effects, such as cancer. This is because 
the interval between the time of exposure to a cancer-causing agent and the time 
tumors develop - if they do - may be many, many years. The interpretation of 
epidemiological studies is hampered by difficulties in measuring actual RF exposure 
during day-to-day use of wireless phones. Many factors affect this measurement, 
such as the angle at which the phone is held, or which model of phone is used.
6.What is FDA doing to find out more about the possible health effects of wireless 
phone RF?
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).
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.
FDA and the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA) have a 
formal Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) to do research 
on wireless phone safety. FDA provides the scientific oversight, obtaining input from 
experts in government, industry, and academic organizations. CTIA-funded research 
is conducted through contracts to 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. 
FCC established these guidelines in consultation with 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.

Appendix B Message from the FDA
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 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 do not demonstrate that wireless phones are harmful. But 
if you are concerned about the RF exposure from these products, you can use 
measures like those described above to reduce your RF exposure from wireless 
phone use.
10. What about children using wireless phones?
The scientific evidence does not show a danger to users of wireless phones, 
including children and teenagers. If you want to take steps to lower exposure to 
radiofrequency energy (RF), the measures described above would apply to children 
and teenagers using wireless phones. Reducing the time of wireless phone use and 
increasing the distance between the user and the RF source will reduce RF exposure. 
Some groups sponsored by other national governments have advised that children 
be discouraged from using wireless phones at all. For example, the government in 
the United Kingdom distributed leaflets containing such a recommendation in 
1220_1260_1261.ENv1_9310041.book  Page 71  Friday, June 13, 2003  1:54 PM

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, 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 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. 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 accompanied 
hearing aid at the same time. This standard was approved by the IEEE in 2000.
FDA continues to monitor the use of wireless phones for possible interactions with 
other medical devices. Should harmful interference be found to occur, FDA will 
conduct testing to assess the interference and work to resolve the problem.
