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 1.39W/Kg and when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is0.952W/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-230.Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be foundon the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Asso-ciation (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
135134FDA CONSUMER UPDATE FDA CONSUMER UPDATE1. 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 ef-fects causes no known adverse health effects. Many studies of low levelRF exposures have not found any biological ef-fects. Some studies havesuggested that some biological ef-fects may occur, but such findings have notbeen confirmed by additional research. In some cases, other researchers have haddifficulty in reproducing those studies, or in determining the reasons forinconsistent 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 de-vices. However, the agency has authority to take action ifwire-less 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 regula-tory 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 ex-posure 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 expo-sures that people get from these base stationsare typically thousands of times lower than those they can get from wire-lessphones. Base stations are thus not the subject of the safety questions discussed inthis 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-inantennas, often called “cell,” “mobile,” or “PCS” phones.U.S. Food and Drug Administration -Center for Devices andRadiological Health Consumer Update on Wireless PhonesThese 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 expo-sures 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 ofwire-less phones have yielded conflicting results that often cannot be repeated inother laboratories. A few animal studies, how-ever, 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 expo-sure from wireless phones poses a health risk?A combination of laboratory studies and epidemiological stud-ies of peopleactually 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 acancer promoting effect if one exists. Epidemiological stud-ies can provide datathat is directly applicable to human popu-lations, but 10 or more years’ follow-upmay be needed to pro-vide answers about some health effects, such as cancer.This is because the interval between the time of exposure to a can-cer- causingagent and the time tumors develop - if they do -may be many, many years. Theinterpretation of epidemiologi-cal studies is hampered by difficulties in measuringactual RF exposure during day-to-day use of wireless phones. Many fac-tors affectthis measurement, 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 impor-tant 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.CH8CH8
137136FDA CONSUMER UPDATE FDA CONSUMER UPDATEAgain, 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 wire-lessphone 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 wire-less 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 King-dom 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 evi-dence that any health hazard exists.11.What about wireless phone interference with medical equipment?Radiofrequency energy (RF) from wireless phones can inter-act 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 Ad-vancement 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 Engi-neers (IEEE). This standard specifies testmethods and per-formance requirements for hearing aids and wireless phones sothat that no interference occurs when a person uses a “com-patible” 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 pos-sibleinteractions 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 re-sources:• FDA web page on wireless phones (http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/ phones/index.html)• Federal Communications Commission (FCC) RF Safety Pro-gram (http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety)• International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protec-tion (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/)The Project has also helped develop a series of public information documents onEMF issues. FDA and the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Asso-ciation(CTIA) have a formal Cooperative Research and De-velopment Agreement(CRADA) to do research on wireless phone safety. FDA provides the scientificoversight, obtaining input from experts in government, industry, and academic or-ganizations. CTIA-funded research is conducted through con-tracts toindependent investigators. The initial research will include both laboratory studiesand studies of wireless phone users. The CRADA will also include a broadassessment of additional research needs in the context of the latest researchdevelopments 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 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 wire-less telephones isset at a Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) of 1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg). TheFCC limit is consistent with the safety standards developed by the Institute ofElectri-cal and Electronic Engineering (IEEE) and the National Council on RadiationProtection and Measurement. The exposure limit takes into consideration thebody’s ability to remove heat from the tissues that absorb energy from the wirelessphone and is set well below levels known to have effects. Manufacturers ofwireless phones must report the RF expo-sure level for each model of phone to theFCC. The FCC website (http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety) gives directions forlocating the FCC identification number on your phone so you can find yourphone’s RF exposure level 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 leader-ship 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 mea-surement of the amount of energy absorbed intissue, either by the whole body or a small part of the body. It is measured inwatts/kg (or milliwatts/g) of matter. This measurement is used to determinewhether 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 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.CH8CH8
