iiFCC RF EXPOSURE INFORMATIONIn August 1996 the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) ofthe United States with its action in Report and Order FCC 96-326adopted an updated safety standard for human exposure to radiofrequency electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC regulatedtransmitters. Those guidelines are consistent with the safetystandard previously set by both U.S. and international standardsbodies. The design of this phone complies with the FCCguidelines and these international standards. Use only the supplied or an approved antenna. Unauthorizedantennas, modifications, or attachments could impair call quality,damage the phone, or result in violation of FCC regulations.Do not use the phone with a damaged antenna. If a damagedantenna comes into contact with the skin, a minor burn mayresult. Please contact your local dealer for replacement antenna.Body-worn OperationThis device was tested for typical body-worn operations usingthe optional belt-clip/holster placed 1.0 inch (2.5cm) from thebody. To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, a minimumseparation distance of 1.0 inch (2.5cm) must be maintainedbetween the user’s body and the phone, including the antenna,whether extended or retracted. The use of third-party belt-clips/holsters with no metallic components that provide the minimumseparation distance of 1.0 inch (2.5cm) can be used to satisfyFCC RF exposure requirements. The use of non-testedaccessories or other body-worn operations may not comply withFCC RF exposure requirements and should be avoided. Contactyour local dealer for optional accessory items.Vehicle Mounted External Antenna (optional, if available.)A minimum separation distance of 7.9 inches (20cm) must bemaintained Between a person and the vehicle mounted externalantenna to satisfy FCC RF exposure requirements.For more information about RF exposure, please visit the FCCwebsite at www.fcc.goviSAR Information & FCC ID LabelingTHIS MODEL PHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTSFOR 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 RFenergy for the general population. The guidelines are based onstandards that were developed by independent scientificorganizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientificstudies. The standards include a substantial safety margin designedto assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit ofmeasurement know as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. TheSAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg.* Tests for SAR are conductedusing standard operating positions specified by the FCC 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 whileoperating can be well below the maximum value. This is because thephone is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to useonly the power required to reach the network. In general, the closeryou are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the poweroutput.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 safeexposure. The tests are performed in positions and locations (e.g., atthe ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC for eachmodel. The highest SAR value for this model phone when tested foruse at the ear is XXXXX and when worn on the body, as described inthis user guide, is XXXXX . (Body-worn measurements differ amongphone models, depending upon available accessories and FCCrequirements). While there may be differences between the SARlevels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet thegovernment requirement for safe exposure.

Thefollowing summarizes what is known-and what remainsunknown-about whether these products can pose a hazard tohealth, and what can be done to minimize any potential risk.This information may be used to respond to questions.Why the concern?Mobile phones emit low levels of radiofrequency energy(i.e.,radiofrequency radiation) in the microwave range whilebeing used. They also emit very low levels of radiofrequencyenergy (RF), considered non-significant, when in the stand-bymode. It is well known that high of RF can produce biologicaldamage through heating effects (this is how your microwaveoven is able to cook food). However, it is not known whether,to what extent, or through what mechanism, lower levels ofRF might cause adverse health effects as well. Althoughsome research has been done to address these questions, noclear picture of the biological effects of this type of radiationhas emerged to date. Thus, the available science does notallow us to conclude that mobile phones are absolutely safe,or that they are unsafe. However, the available scientificevidence does not demonstrate any adverse health effectsassociated with the use of mobile phones.What kinds of phones are in question?Questions have been raised about hand-held mobile phones,the kind that have a built-in antenna that is positioned closeto the user’s head during normal telephone conversation.These types of mobile phones are of concern because of the
111110short distance between the phone’s antenna-the primarysource of the RF-and the person’s head. The exposure to RFfrom mobile phones in which the antenna is located atgreater distances from the user(on the outside of a car, forexample) is drastically lower than that from hand-heldphones, because a person’s RF exposure decreases rapidlywith distance from the source. The safety of so-called“cordless phones,” which have a base unit connected to thetelephone wiring in a house and which operate at far lowerpower levels and frequencies, has not been questioned.How much evidence is there that hand-heldmobile phones might be harmful?Briefly, there is not enough evidence to know for sure, eitherway; however, research efforts are on-going. The existingscientific evidence is conflicting and many of the studies thathave been done to date have suffered from flaws in theirresearch methods. Animal experiments investigating theeffects of RF exposures characteristic of mobile phones haveyielded conflicting results. A few animal studies, however,have suggested that low levels of RF could accelerate thedevelopment of cancer in laboratory animals. In one study,mice genetically altered to be predisposed to developing onetype of cancer developed more than twice as many suchcancers when they were exposed to RF energy compared tocontrols. There is much uncertainty among scientists aboutwhether results obtained from animal studies apply to theuse of mobile phones. First, it is uncertain how to apply theresults obtained in rats and mice to humans. Second, manyof the studies that showed increased tumor developmentused animals that had already been treated with cancer-causing chemicals, and other studies exposed the animals tothe RF virtually continuously-up to 22 hours per day.For the past five years in the United States, the mobile phoneindustry has supported research into the safety of mobilephones. This research has resulted in two findings inparticular that merit additional study:1. In a hospital-based, case-control study, researchers lookedfor an association between mobile phone use and eitherglioma (a type of brain cancer) or acoustic neuroma (abenign tumor of the nerve sheath). No statisticallysignificant association was found between mobile phoneuse and acoustic neuroma. There was also no associationbetween mobile phone use and gliomas when all types oftypes of gliomas were considered together. It should benoted that the average length of mobile phone exposure inthis study was less than three years. When 20 types of glioma were considered separately,however, an association was found between mobile phoneuse and one rare type of glioma, neuroepithelliomatoustumors. It is possible with multiple comparisons of the samesample that this association occurred by chance. Moreover,the risk did not increase with how often the mobile phonewas used, or the length of the calls. In fact, the risk actuallydecreased with cumulative hours of mobile phone use.Most cancer causing agents increase risk with increasedexposure. An ongoing study of brain cancers by the NationalCancer Institute is expected to bear on the accuracy andrepeatability of these results.12. Researchers conducted a large battery of laboratory tests toassess the effects of exposure to mobile phone RF ongenetic material. These included tests for several kinds ofabnormalities, including mutations, chromosomalaberrations, DNA strand breaks, and structural changes inthe genetic material of blood cells called lymphocytes.None of the tests showed any effect of the RF except forthe micronucleus assay, which detects structural effects onthe genetic material. The cells in this assay showedchanges after exposure to simulated cell phone radiation,but only after 24 hours of exposure. It is possible thatexposing the test cells to radiation for this long resulted inheating. Since this assay is known to be sensitive toheating, heat alone could have caused the abnormalities tooccur. The data already in the literature on the response ofthe micronucleus assay to RF are conflicting. Thus, follow-up research is necessary.2
113112FDA is currently working with government, industry, andacademic groups to ensure the proper follow-up to theseindustry-funded research findings. Collaboration with theCellular Telecommunications Industry Association(CTIA) inparticular is expected to lead to FDA providing researchrecommendations and scientific oversight of new CTIA-funded research based on such recommendations.Two other studies of interest have been reported recently inthe literature:1. Two groups of 18 people were exposed to simulatedmobile phone signals under laboratory conditions whilethey performed cognitive function tests. There were nochanges in the subjects’ ability to recall words, numbers,or pictures, or in their spatial memory, but they wereable to make choices more quickly in one visual testwhen they were exposed to simulated mobile phonesignals. This was the only change noted among morethan 20 variables compared.32 . In a study of 209 brain tumor cases and 425 matchedcontrols, there was no increased risk of brain tumorsassociated with mobile phone use. When tumors didexist in certain locations, however, they were morelikely to be on the side of the head where the mobilephone was used. Because this occurred in only a smallnumber of cases, the increased likelihood was too smallto be statistically significant.4In summary, we do not have enough information at thispoint to assure the public that there are, or are not, anylow incident health problems associated with use of mobilephones. FDA continues to work with all parties, includingother federal agencies and industry, to assure that researchis undertaken to provide the necessary answers to theoutstanding questions about the safety of mobile phones.What is known about cases of human cancerthat have been reported in users of hand-heldmobile phones?Some people who have used mobile phones have beendiagnosed with brain cancer. But it is important tounderstand that this type of cancer also occurs amongpeople who have not used mobile phones. In fact, braincancer occurs in the U.S. population at a rate of about 6new cases per 100,000 people each year. At that rate,assuming 80 million users of mobile phones (a numberincreasing at a rate of about 1 million per moth), about4800 cases of brain cancer would be expected each yearamong those 80 million people, whether or not they usedtheir phones. Thus it is not possible to tell whether anyindividual’s cancer arose because of the phone, or whetherit would have happened anyway. A key question is whetherthe risk of getting a particular form of cancer is greateramong people who use mobile phones than among the restof the population. One way to answer that question is tocompare the usage of mobile phones among people withbrain cancer with the use of mobile phones amongappropriately matched people without brain cancer. This iscalled a case-control study. The current case-control studyof brain cancers by the National Cancer Institute, as wellas the follow-up research to be sponsored by industry, willbegin to generate this type of information.What is FDA’s role concerning the safety ofmobile phones?Under the law, FDA does not review the safety of radiation-emitting consumer products such as mobile phones beforemarketing, as it does with new drugs or medical devices.However, the agency has authority to take action if mobilephones are shown to emit radiation at a level that ishazardous to the user. In such a case, FDA could require themanufacturers of mobile phones to notify users of thehealth hazard and to repair, replace or recall the phones sothat the hazard no longer exists.
115114Although the existing scientific data do not justify FDAregulatory actions at this time, FDA has urged the mobilephone industry to take a number of steps to assure publicsafety. The agency has recommended that the industry:• support needed research into possible biological effects ofRF of the type emitted by mobile phones:• design mobile phones in a way that minimizes any RFexposure to the user that is not necessary for devicefunction; and• cooperate in providing mobile phone users with the bestpossible information on what is known about possibleeffects of mobile phone use on human health.At the same time, FDA belongs to an interagency workinggroup of the federal agencies that have responsibility fordifferent aspects of mobile phone safety to ensure acoordinated effort at the federal level. These agencies are:• National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health• Environmental Protection Agency• Federal Communication Commission• Occupational Health and Safety Administration• National Telecommunications and InformationAdministrationThe National Institutes of Health also participates in thisgroup.In the absence of conclusive information aboutany possible risk, what can concernedindividuals do?If there is a risk from these products-and at this point we donot know that there is-it is probably very small. But if peopleare concerned about avoiding even potential risks, there aresimple steps they can take to do so. For example, time is akey factor in how much exposure a person receives. Thosepersons who spend long periods of time on their hand-heldmobile phones could consider holding lengthy conversationson conventional phones and reserving the hand-held modelsfor shorter conversations for for situations when othertypes of phones are not available.Phone who must conduct extended conversations in theircars every day could switch to a type of mobile phone thatplaces more distance between their bodies and the sourceof the RF, since the exposure level drops off dramaticallywith distance. For example, they could switch to:• a mobile phone in which the antenna is located outsidethe vehicle,• a hand-held phone with a built-in antenna connected to adifferent antenna mounted on the outside of the car orbuilt into a separate package, or• a headset with a remote antenna to a mobile phonecarried at the waist.Again, the scientific data do not demonstrate that mobilephones are harmful. But if people are concerned about theradiofrequency energy from these products, taking thesimple precautions outlined above can reduce any possiblerisk.Where can I find additional information?For additional information, see the following websites:Federal Communications Commission (FCC) RF SafetyProgram (select “Information on Human Exposure to RFFields from Cellular and PCS Radio Transmitters”):http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafetyWorld Health Organization (WHO) InternationalCommission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (select Qs& As): http://www.who.int/emfUnited Kingdom, National Radiological ProtectionBoard: http://www.nrpb.org.ukCellular Telecommunications Industry Association(CTIA): http://www.wow-com.com
