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 set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg

Health and safety information

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.

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 printed

in the label on the phone.

For body operation

For body worn operation, this model phone has been

tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines when

used with a Samsung-supplied or approved accessory

designated for this product or when used with and

accessory that contains no metal and that positions the

handset a minimum from the body.

The minimum distance for this model phone is written in

the FCC certification information from the body. None

compliance with the above conditions may violate FCC RF

exposure guidelines.

For more Information concerning exposure to radio

frequency signals, see the following websites:

* 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 and the type of battery and charger

used. The battery can be charged and discharged

hundreds of times, but it will gradually wear out. When

the operation time (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

Health and safety information

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.

1. 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.

2. When available, use a hands-free device. If possible,

add an extra layer of convenience and safety to your

wireless phone with one of the many hands-free

accessories available today.

3. 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 voicemail answer it for

you.

4. 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.

5. Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while

driving. Jotting down a To Do list or flipping through

your phonebook takes your attention away from your

primary responsibility, driving safely.

6. 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.

7. 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.

Health and safety information

8. 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!

9. 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.

10. Call roadside assistance or a special nonemergency

wireless assistance number when necessary. 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

nonemergency 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.

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

Health and safety information

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 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.

Posted facilities

Switch off your phone in any facility where posted notices

require you to do so.

Health and safety information

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 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).

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:

1. If the phone is not on, switch it on.

2. Key in the emergency number for your present

location (for example, 112 or any other official

emergency number). Emergency numbers vary by

location.

3. Press [ ].

Health and safety information

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.

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 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.

The highest SAR values for this model phone as reported

to the FCC are:

GSM850 Head: 0.665 W/kg, Body-worn: 0.390 W/kg;

GSM1900 Head: 0.406 W/kg, Body-worn: 0.782 W/kg.

Body-worn operations are restricted to Sam sung

supplied, approved or none Samsung designated

accessories that have no metal and must provide at least

1.5 cm separation between the device, including its

100

Health and safety information

antenna whether extended or retracted, and the user’s

body. None compliance to the above restrictions may

violate 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

information on this model phone is on file with the FCC

and can be found under the Display Grant section of http:/

Appendix B: Guide to safe and responsible

wireless phone use

Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association

“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 seat belts and requiring other

passengers to do the same.

101

Health and safety information

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 voicemail

answer it for you.

4. Suspend conversations during hazardous driving

conditions or situations. Let the person you are

speaking with know you are driving; if necessary,

suspend the call in heavy traffic or hazardous weather

conditions. Rain, sleet, snow and ice can be

hazardous, but so is heavy traffic. As a driver, your

first responsibility is to pay attention to the road.

5. Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while

driving. If you are reading an address book or

business card, or writing a “to do” list while driving a

car, you are not watching where you are going. It’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

102

Health and safety information

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

103

Health and safety information

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.”

Appendix C: Consumer update on wireless

phones

U.S. Food and Drug Administration

1. 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.

2. 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.

104

Health and safety information

3. 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

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.

105

Health and safety information

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.

4. 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.

106

Health and safety information

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.

5. 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.

6. 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

107

Health and safety information

requirements regardless of whether they are used against

the head or against the body. Either configuration should

result in compliance with the safety limit.

7. 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

“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.

8. 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

108

Health and safety information

testing to assess the interference and work to resolve the

problem.

9. 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

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.

10. 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 -

109

Health and safety information

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.

11. 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.
