Health and safety information
Exposure to radio frequency (RF) signals
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 (FCC) 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 the
safety standards that were developed by independent
scientific organizations through periodic and through
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 phones employs a unit
of measurement known as Specific Absorption Rate (SAR).
The SAR limit recommended by the FCC is 1.6W/kg.
*
SAR tests are conducted using standard operating
positions specified 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
of the phone.
Before a new model phone 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 (e.g., at the ear and
worn on the body) as required by the FCC for each model.
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of
various phones and at various positions, they all meet the
government requirement.
* In the U.S. and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones
used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg (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.

Precautions when using batteries
Never use any charger or battery that is damaged in any
way.
Use the battery only for its intended purpose.
If you use the phone near the network’s base station, it
uses less power; talk and standby time are greatly
affected by the signal strength on the cellular network and
the parameters set by the network operator.
Battery charging time depends on the remaining battery
charge, the type of battery and the charger used. The
battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times,
but it will gradually wear out. When the operation time
E760.book Page 21 Tuesday, May 23, 2006 1:59 PM
66
(talk time and standby time) is noticeably shorter than
normal, it is time to buy a new battery.
If left unused, a fully charged battery will discharge itself
over time.
Use only Samsung-approved batteries and recharge your
battery only with Samsung-approved chargers. When a
charger is not in use, disconnect it from the power source.
Do not leave the battery connected to a charger for more
than a week, since overcharging may shorten its life.
Extreme temperatures will affect the charging capacity of
your battery: it may require cooling or warming first.
Do not leave the battery in hot or cold places, such as in a
car in summer or winter conditions, as you will reduce the
capacity and lifetime of the battery. Always try to keep the
battery at room temperature. A phone with a hot or cold
battery may temporarily not work, even when the battery
is fully charged. Li-ion batteries are particularly affected
by temperatures below 0 °C (32 °F).
Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental short-circuiting
can occur when a metallic object (coin, clip or pen) causes
a direct connection between the + and – terminals of the
battery (metal strips on the battery), for example when
you carry a spare battery in a pocket or bag. Short-
circuiting the terminals may damage the battery or the
object causing the short-circuiting.
Dispose of used batteries in accordance with local
regulations. Always recycle. Do not dispose of batteries in
a fire.
Road safety
Your wireless phone gives you the powerful ability to
communicate by voice, almost anywhere, anytime. But an
important responsibility accompanies the benefits of
wireless phones, one that every user must uphold.
When driving a car, driving is your first responsibility.
When using your wireless phone behind the wheel of a car,
practice good common sense and remember the following
tips:
Get to know your wireless phone and its features, such as
speed dial and redial. If available, these features help you
to place your call without taking your attention off the
road.
When available, use a hands-free device. If possible, add
an extra layer of convenience and safety to your wireless
E760.book Page 22 Tuesday, May 23, 2006 1:59 PM
Health and safety information
67
phone with one of the many hands-free accessories
available today.
Position your wireless phone within easy reach. Be able to
access your wireless phone without removing your eyes
from the road. If you get an incoming call at an
inconvenient time, let your voice mail answer it for you.
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, ice, and
even heavy traffic can be hazardous.
Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving.
Jotting down a To Do list or flipping through your Address
Book takes your attention away from your primary
responsibility, driving safely.
Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls
when you are not moving or before pulling into traffic. Try
to plan calls when your car will be stationary. If you need
to make a call while moving, dial only a few numbers,
check the road and your mirrors, then continue.
Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that
may be distracting. Make the people with whom you are
talking aware that you are driving and suspend
conversations that have the potential to divert your
attention from the road.
Use your wireless phone to call for help. Dial the
emergency number in the case of fire, traffic accident or
medical emergencies. Remember, it is a free call on your
wireless phone!
Use your wireless phone to help others in emergencies. If
you see a car accident, crime in progress or other serious
emergency where lives are in danger, call the emergency
number, as you would want others to do for you.
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 any other special non-
emergency wireless number.
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.
E760.book Page 23 Tuesday, May 23, 2006 1:59 PM

Health and safety information
When connecting the phone or any accessory to another
device, read its user’s guide for detailed safety
instructions. Do not connect incompatible products.
As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, users
are advised that for the satisfactory operation of the
equipment and for the safety of personnel, it is
recommended that the equipment should only be used in
the normal operating position (held to your ear with the
antenna pointing over your shoulder).
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. Consult the manufacturer to
discuss alternatives.
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum
distance of 15 cm (6 inches) be maintained between a
wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential
interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations
are consistent with the independent research and
recommendations of Wireless Technology Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
should always keep the phone more than 15 cm (6 inches)
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
potential interference.
If you have any reason to suspect that interference is
taking place, switch off your phone immediately.
Hearing aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some
hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may
wish to consult your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss
alternatives.
Other medical devices
If you use any other personal medical devices, consult the
manufacturer of your device to determine if it is
adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your
physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this
E760.book Page 24 Tuesday, May 23, 2006 1:59 PM
Health and safety information
69
information. 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. 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. You
should also consult the manufacturer of any equipment
that has been added to your vehicle.
Posted facilities
Switch off your phone in any facility where posted notices
require you to do so.
Potentially explosive environments
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 while at a
refueling 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 the areas
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.
Emergency calls
This phone, like any wireless phone, operates using radio
signals, wireless and landline networks as well as user-
programmed functions, which cannot guarantee
connection in all conditions. Therefore, you should never
rely solely on any wireless phone for essential
communications (medical emergencies, for example).
E760.book Page 25 Tuesday, May 23, 2006 1:59 PM

Health and safety information
Remember, to make or receive any calls the phone must
be switched on and in a service area with adequate signal
strength. 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:
If the phone is not on, switch it on.
Key in the emergency number for your present location
(for example, 911 or other official emergency number).
Emergency numbers vary by location.
Press .
If certain features are in use (call barring, for example),
you may first need to deactivate those features before you
can make an emergency call. Consult this document and
your local cellular service provider.
When making an emergency call, remember to give all the
necessary information as accurately as possible.
Remember that your 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.

Appendix A: 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 safety
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 (SAR). The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6
W/kg. SAR Tests 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
E760.book Page 30 Tuesday, May 23, 2006 1:59 PM
Health and safety information
31
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 new model phone is available for sale to the
public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it
does not exceed the exposure limit established by the
FCC. Tests for each model phone are performed in
positions and locations (e.g. at the ear and worn on the
body) as required by the FCC.
The highest SAR values for this model phone as reported
to the FCC are
Head: 0.823 W/Kg, Body-worn: 0.589 W/Kg.
For body worn operation, this model phone has been
tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines
whenused with a Samsung accessory designated for this
product or when used with an accessory that contains no
metal and that positions the handset a minimum of 1.5 cm
from the body. Non-compliance with the above restrictions
may result in violation of FCC RF exposure guidelines.
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

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 seat belts 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:
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.
When available, use a hands free device. A number of
hands free wireless phone accessories are readily available
today. Whether you choose an installed mounted device
for your wireless phone or a speaker phone accessory,
take advantage of these devices if available to you.
Position your wireless phone within easy reach. Make sure
you place your wireless phone within easy reach and
where you can 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.
Suspend conversations during hazardous driving
conditions or situations. Let the person you are speaking
with know you are driving; if necessary, suspend the call
in heavy traffic or hazardous weather conditions. Rain,
sleet, snow and ice can be hazardous, but so is heavy
traffic. As a driver, your first responsibility is to pay
attention to the road.
Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving.
If you 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.
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.
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
E760.book Page 33 Tuesday, May 23, 2006 1:59 PM
78
Health and safety information
people you are talking with aware you are driving and if
necessary, suspend conversations which have the
potential to divert your attention from the road.
Use your wireless phone to call for help. Your wireless
phone is one of the greatest tools you 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!
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.
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.

Appendix C: consumer update
on wireless phones
U.S. Food and Drug Administration
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 radio frequency 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 well
within the FCC’s compliance limits.
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
radio frequency 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.
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 radio
frequency 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
E760.book Page 35 Tuesday, May 23, 2006 1:59 PM
80
Health and safety information
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.
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 primary subject of the safety questions
discussed in this document.
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 radio frequency 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.
What steps can I take to reduce my exposure to radio
frequency 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 radio frequency 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
E760.book Page 37 Tuesday, May 23, 2006 1:59 PM
82
Health and safety information
those described above to reduce your RF exposure from
wireless phone use.
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 radio frequency
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 on scientific evidence that any health
hazard exists.
Do hands-free kits for wireless phones reduce risks from
exposure to RF emissions?
Since there are no known risks from exposure to RF
emissions from wireless phones, there is no reason to
believe that hands-free kits reduce risks. Hands-free kits
can be used with wireless phones for convenience and
comfort. These systems reduce the absorption of RF
energy in the head because the phone, which is the source
of the RF emissions, will not be placed against the head.
On the other hand, if the phone is mounted against the
waist or other part of the body during use, then that part
of the body will absorb more RF energy. Wireless phones
marketed in the U.S. are required to meet safety
requirements regardless of whether they are used against
the head or against the body. Either configuration should
result in compliance with the safety limit.
Do wireless phone accessories that claim to shield the
head from RF radiation work?
Since there are no known risks from exposure to RF
emissions from wireless phones, there is no reason to
believe that accessories that claim to shield the head from
those emissions reduce risks. Some products that claim to
shield the user from RF absorption use special phone
cases, while others involve nothing more than a metallic
accessory attached to the phone. Studies have shown that
these products generally do not work as advertised. Unlike
E760.book Page 38 Tuesday, May 23, 2006 1:59 PM
Health and safety information
83
“hand-free” kits, these so-called “shields” may interfere
with proper operation of the phone. The phone may be
forced to boost its power to compensate, leading to an
increase in RF absorption. In February 2002, the Federal
trade Commission (FTC) charged two companies that sold
devices that claimed to protect wireless phone users from
radiation with making false and unsubstantiated claims.
According to FTC, these defendants lacked a reasonable
basis to substantiate their claim.
What about wireless phone interference with medical
equipment?
Radio frequency 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 compatible 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.
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 radio frequency 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
E760.book Page 39 Tuesday, May 23, 2006 1:59 PM
84
Health and safety information
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, gioma,
meningioma, or acoustic neuroma, tumors of the brain or
salivary gland, leukemia, or other cancers. None of the
studies demonstrated the existence of any harmful health
effects from wireless phone RF exposures. However, none
of the studies can answer questions about long-term
exposures, since the average period of phone use in these
studies was around three years.
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.
Which other federal agencies have responsibilities related
to potential RF health effects?
Additional information on the safety of RF exposures from
various sources can be obtained from the following
organizations.
