SAR INFORMATION SAR INFORMATION133132THIS MODEL PHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designedand manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure toradiofrequency (RF) energy set by the Federal CommunicationsCommission of the U.S. Government. These limits are part ofcomprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energyfor the general population. The guidelines are based on standards thatwere developed by independent scientific organizations throughperiodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The standardsinclude a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of allpersons, regardless of age and health. The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit ofmeasurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SARlimit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg. * Tests for SAR are conducted with thephone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all testedfrequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highestcertified power level, the actual SAR level of the phone while operatingcan be well below the maximum value. This is because the phone isdesigned to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only thepower required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to awireless base station antenna, the lower the power output. Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, it must betested and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the limitestablished by the government adopted requirement for safe exposure.The tests are performed in positions and locations (e.g., at the ear andworn on the body) as required by the FCC for each model. The highestSAR value for this model phone when tested for use at the ear is 1.15W/Kg and when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is0.393W/Kg. (Body-worn measurements differ among phone models,depending upon available accessories and FCC requirements). Whilethere may be differences between the SAR levels of various phonesand at various positions, they all meet the government requirement forsafe exposure. The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phonewith all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCCRF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model phone is on filewith the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section ofhttp://www.fcc.gov/ oet/fccid after searching on PP4TX-180.Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be foundon the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association (CTIA) web-site at http://www.wow-com.com.* In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phonesused by the public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over one gram oftissue. The standard incorporates a sub-stantial margin of safety to giveadditional protection for the public and to account for any variations inmeasurements.CH8CH8
HAC INFORMATION FDA CONSUMER UPDATE135134CH8CH81. Do wireless phones pose a health hazard?The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems areassociated with using wireless phones. There is no proof, however, that wirelessphones are absolutely safe. Wireless phones emit low levels of radiofrequencyenergy (RF) in the microwave range while being used. They also emit very lowlevels of RF when in the stand-by mode. Whereas high levels of RF can producehealth effects (by heating tissue), exposure to low level RF that does not produceheating effects causes no known adverse health effects. Many studies of low levelRF exposures have not found any biological effects. Some studies have suggestedthat some biological effects may occur, but such findings have not been confirmedby additional research. In some cases, other researchers have had difficulty inreproducing 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 consumerproducts such as wireless phones before they can be sold, as it does with newdrugs or medical devices. However, the agency has authority to take action ifwireless phones are shown to emit radiofrequency energy (RF) at a level that ishazardous to the user. In such a case, FDA could require the manufacturers ofwireless phones to notify users of the health hazard and to repair, replace or recallthe phones so that the hazard no longer exists. Although the existing scientific datado not justify FDA regulatory actions, FDA has urged the wireless phone industryto 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 haveresponsibility for different aspects of RF safety to ensure coordinated efforts at thefederal 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 AdministrationThe National Institutes of Health participates in some inter-agency working groupactivities, as well. FDA shares regulatory responsibilities for wireless phones withthe Federal Communications Commission (FCC). All phones that are sold in theUnited States must comply with FCC safety guidelines that limit RF exposure. FCCrelies on FDA and other health agencies for safety questions about wirelessphones. FCC also regulates the base stations that the wireless phone networksrely upon. While these base stations operate at higher power than do the wirelessphones themselves, the RF exposures that people get from these base stations aretypically 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 thisdocument.3. What kinds of phones are the subject of this update?The term “wireless phone” refers here to hand-held wireless phones with built-inantennas, often called “cell,” “mobile,” or “PCS” phones.U.S. Food and Drug Administration -Center for Devices andRadiological Health Consumer Update on Wireless PhonesHearing aid compatibility ratings now appear on some handsetpackages. If your handset has a hearing aid compatibility rating of M3or M4, then that phone has met or surpassed the American NationalStandards Institute’s (“ANSI”) hearing aid compatibility standard asadopted by the Federal Communications Commission. lM3-rating indicates the handset has satisfied the ANSI standard lM4-rating indicates the handset has exceeded the ANSIstandard The higher the M-rating the handset has the lower the RadioFrequency emissions level and higher signal quality the handset willhave. If there is no M-rating then the handset did not meet the ANSIstandard. The handset’s M-rating along with a hearing aid’s M-ratingwill assist customers in finding a handset that will work best for them.
137136FDA CONSUMER UPDATE FDA CONSUMER UPDATEThese types of wireless phones can expose the user to measurable radiofrequencyenergy (RF) because of the short distance between the phone and the user’s head.These RF exposures are limited by Federal Communications Commission safetyguidelines that were developed with the advice of FDA and other federal health andsafety agencies. When the phone is located at greater distances from the user, theexposure to RF is drastically lower because a person’s RF exposure decreasesrapidly with increasing distance from the source. The so-called “cordless phones,”which have a base unit connected to the telephone wiring in a house, typicallyoperate at far lower power levels, and thus produce RF exposures far below theFCC safety limits. 4. What are the results of the research done already?The research done thus far has produced conflicting results, and many studieshave suffered from flaws in their research methods. Animal experimentsinvestigating the effects of radiofrequency energy (RF) exposures characteristic ofwireless phones have yielded conflicting results that often cannot be repeated inother laboratories. A few animal studies, however, have suggested that low levelsof RF could accelerate the development of cancer in laboratory animals. However,many of the studies that showed increased tumor develop-ment used animals thathad been genetically engineered or treated with cancer-causing chemicals so as tobe pre-dis-posed to develop cancer in the absence of RF exposure. Other studiesexposed the animals to RF for up to 22 hours per day. These conditions are notsimilar to the conditions under which people use wireless phones, so we don’tknow with certainty what the results of such studies mean for human health. Threelarge epidemiology studies have been published since December 2000. Betweenthem, the studies investigated any possible association between the use ofwireless phones and primary brain cancer, glioma, meningioma, or acoustic neu-roma, tumors of the brain or salivary gland, leukemia, or other cancers. None of thestudies demonstrated the existence of any harmful health effects from wirelessphone RF exposures. However, none of the studies can answer questions aboutlong-term exposures, since the average period of phone use in these studies wasaround 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 stuies of people actuallyusing wireless phones would provide some of the data that are needed. Lifetimeanimal exposure studies could be completed in a few years. However, very largenumbers of animals would be needed to provide reliable proof of a cancerpromoting effect if one exists. Epidemiological studies can provide data that isdirectly applicable to human popu-lations, but 10 or more years’ follow-up may beneeded to provide answers about some health effects, such as cancer. This isbecause the interval between the time of exposure to a cancer causing agent andthe time tumors develop - if they do -may be many, many years. The interpretationof epidemiological studies is hampered by difficulties in measuring actual RFexposure during day-to-day use of wireless phones. Many factors affect thismeasurement, such as the angle at which the phone is held, or which model ofphone 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 ofinvestigators around the world to ensure that high priority animal studies areconducted to address important questions about the effects of exposure toradiofrequency energy (RF). FDA has been a leading participant in the World HealthOrga-nization International Electromagnetic Fields (EMF) Project since its inceptionin 1996. An influential result of this work has been the development of a detailedagenda of research needs that has driven the establishment of new research pro-grams around the world.CH8CH8The Project has also helped develop a series of public information documents onEMF 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 or-ganizations. CTIA-funded research is conducted through contracts to independentinvestigators. The initial research will include both laboratory studies and studies ofwireless phone users. The CRADA will also include a broad assessment ofadditional research needs in the context of the latest research developmentsaround 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 CommunicationsCommission (FCC) guidelines that limit radiofrequency energy (RF) exposures. FCCestablished these guidelines in consultation with FDA and the other federal healthand safety agencies. The FCC limit for RF exposure from wireless telephones is setat a Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) of 1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg). The FCClimit is consistent with the safety standards developed by the Institute of Electricaland Electronic Engineering (IEEE) and the National Council on Radiation Protectionand Measurement. The exposure limit takes into consideration the body’s ability toremove heat from the tissues that absorb energy from the wireless phone and isset well below levels known to have effects. Manufacturers of wireless phonesmust report the RF exposure level for each model of phone to the FCC. The FCCwebsite (http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety) gives directions for locating the FCCidentification number on your phone so you can find your phone’s RF exposurelevel in the online listing.8. What has FDA done to measure the radiofrequency en-ergy coming from wireless phones ?The Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) is developing a technicalstandard for measuring the radiofrequency energy (RF) exposure from wirelessphones and other wireless handsets with the participation and leadership of FDAscientists and engineers. The standard, “Recom-mended Practice for Determiningthe Spatial-Peak Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) in the Human Body Due toWireless Communications Devices: Experimental Techniques,” sets forth the firstconsistent test methodology for measuring the rate at which RF is deposited in theheads of wireless phone users. The test method uses a tissue simulating model ofthe human head. Standardized SAR test methodology is expected to greatlyimprove the consistency of measurements made at different laboratories on thesame 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 (ormilliwatts/g) of matter. This measurement is used to determine whether a wirelessphone 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 thereis—it is probably very small. But if you are concerned about avoiding evenpotential risks, you can take a few simple steps to minimize your exposure toradiofrequency energy (RF). Since time is a key factor in how much exposure aperson receives, reducing the amount of time spent using a wireless phone willreduce 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 an-tenna.
139138FDA CONSUMER UPDATE PROTECT YOUR WARRANTYAgain, the scientific data do not demonstrate that wireless phones are harmful. Butif you are concerned about the RF exposure from these products, you can usemeasures like those described above to reduce your RF exposure from wirelessphone 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 toradiofrequency energy (RF), the measures described above would apply to childrenand teenagers using wireless phones. Reducing the time of wireless phone useand increasing the distance between the user and the RF source will reduce RFexposure. Some groups sponsored by other national governments have advisedthat children be discouraged from using wireless phones at all. For example, thegovernment in the United Kingdom distributed leaflets containing such arecommendation in December 2000. They noted that no evidence exists that us-ing a wireless phone causes brain tumors or other ill effects. Theirrecommendation 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 someelectronic devices. For this reason, FDA helped develop a detailed test method tomeasure electromagnetic interference (EMI) of implanted cardiac pacemakers anddefibrillators from wireless telephones. This test method is now part of a standardsponsored by the Association for the Advancement of Medical instrumentation(AAMI). The final draft, a joint effort by FDA, medical device manufacturers, andmany other groups, was completed in late 2000. This standard will allowmanufacturers to ensure that cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators are safe fromwireless phone EMI. FDA has tested hearing aids for interference from handheldwireless phones and helped develop a voluntary standard sponsored by theInstitute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE). This standard specifies testmethods and performance requirements for hearing aids and wireless phones sothat 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 theIEEE in 2000. FDA continues to monitor the use of wireless phones for possibleinteractions with other medical devices. Should harmful interference be found tooccur, FDA will conduct testing to assess the interference and work to resolve theproblem.12.Where can I find additional information?For additional information, please refer to the following resources:• FDA web page on wireless phones (http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/ phones/index.html)• Federal Communications Commission (FCC) RF Safety Program (http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety)• International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (http://www.icnirp.de)• World Health Organization (WHO) International EMF Project(http://www.who.int/emf)• National Radiological Protection Board (UK) (http://www.nrpb.org.uk/)CH8CH8Read your Warranty carefully, with the special consideration toparagraph seven of the Limited Warranty for your unit.“Warranty does not apply to... or to any product or part thereof which has suffered through alteration... mishandling misuse, neglect or accident”.Many companies are making look alike accessories and in some cases,promoting that their product is equal to or better than the Audiovoxproduct.
