Sprint PCSNetwork. Your new dual-band/tri-mode SCP-200 by Sanyo works

anywhere on the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network and allows you to roam

on other analog and 1900 and 800 MHz digital networks where we’ve

implemented roaming agreements with other carriers.

This section explains how roaming works as well as special features that

let you manage your roaming experience.

Your phone’s display screen always lets you know when you’re off the

Nationwide Sprint PCS Network and whether your phone is operating in

analog or digital mode.The following chart indicates what you’ll see

depending on where you’re using your phone.

RoamingonOtherDigitalNetworks

When you’re roaming on digital networks, your call quality and security

will be similar to the quality you receive when making calls on the

Nationwide Sprint PCS Network. However, you may not be able to access

certain features.

RoamingonAnalogNetworks

When you roam on analog networks, you will experience a similar

quality provided by other analog carriers today. Although some

features, such as Sprint PCSVoice Command, will be unavailable, you

can still make and receive calls and access voicemail. If you are

accustomed to Sprint PCS Service, you may notice some of the following

differences when using analog service:

ⅷ

You are more likely to experience static, cross-talk, fade-out, and

dropped calls.

ⅷ

Some features which are standard on the Nationwide Sprint PCS

Network, such as call waiting, and direct international dialing, may

not be available.

ⅷ

Though callers can leave voicemail messages while you are roaming,

you may not receive notification until you return to the Nationwide

Sprint PCS Network. (See “Checking forVoicemail MessagesWhile

Roaming”on the next page.)

ⅷ

There are security and privacy risks (eavesdropping and cloning) that

exist with conventional analog services today.

ⅷ

Your battery’s charge will deplete more quickly and you will need to

recharge it more often when you use your phone for analog roaming.

CheckingforVoicemailMessagesWhileRoaming

When you are roaming off the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network, you may

not receive on-phone notification of new voicemail messages. Callers

can still leave messages, but you will need to periodically check your

voicemail for new messages if you are in a roaming service area for an

extended period of time.

ControllingRoamingChargesUsingCallGuard

Nationwide Sprint PCS Network: the onscreen roaming icon and Call

Guard. Call Guard makes it easy to manage your roaming charges by

requiring an extra step before you can place or answer a roaming call.

GettingtheMost Out ofYourReception

KeepingTabsonSignalStrength

The quality of each call you make or receive depends on the signal strength in your area.

Your phone informs you of the current signal strength by displaying a number of bars

next to the signal strength icon.The more bars displayed, the stronger the signal. If

you’re inside a building, being near a window may give you better reception.

Understanding the Power Save Feature

If your phone is unable to find a signal after 15 minutes of searching, a Power Save

feature is automatically activated. If your phone is active, it periodically rechecks service

availability; you can also check it yourself by pressing any key. Anytime the Power Save

feature is activated, a message is displayed on the screen. When a signal is found, your

phone returns to standby mode.

UnderstandingHowYourPhoneOperates

Your phone is basically a radio transmitter and receiver. When it’s turned on, it receives

and transmits radiofrequency (RF) signals. When you use your phone, the system

handling your call controls the power level.This power can range from 0.01μ watts to

0.2 watts in digital mode.

KnowingRadioFrequencySafety

The design of your Sprint PCS Phone complies with updated NCRP standards described

below.

In 1991-92, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and the American

National Standards Institute (ANSI) joined in updating ANSI’s 1982 standard for safety

levels with respect to human exposure to RF signals. More than 120 scientists,

engineers and physicians from universities, government health agencies and industries

developed this updated standard after reviewing the available body of research. In

1993, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) adopted this updated standard

in a regulation. In August 1996, the FCC adopted hybrid standard consisting of the

existing ANSI/IEEE standard and the guidelines published by the National Council of

Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP).

MaintainingYourPhone’sPeakPerformance

There are several simple guidelines to operating your phone properly and maintaining

safe, satisfactory service.

ⅷ

Hold the phone with the antenna raised, fully-extended, and over your shoulder.

ⅷ

Try not to hold, bend, or twist the phone’s antenna.

ⅷ

Don’t use the phone if the antenna is damaged.

ⅷ

Speak directly into the mouthpiece.

ⅷ

Avoid exposing your phone and accessories to rain or liquid spills. If your phone does

get wet, immediately turn the power off and remove the battery.

UsingYourPhoneWhileDriving

Talking on your phone while driving (or operating the phone without a hands-free

device) is prohibited in some jurisdictions. Laws vary as to specific restrictions.

Remember that safety always comes first.

When using your phone in the car:

ⅷ

Get to know your phone and its features, such as speed dial and redial.

ⅷ

When available, use a hands-free device.

ⅷ

Position your phone within easy reach.

ⅷ

Let the person you are speaking to know you are driving; if necessary, suspend the

call in heavy traffic or hazardous weather conditions.

ⅷ

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

ⅷ

Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls when stationary or before

pulling into traffic.

ⅷ

Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may divert your

attention from the road.

ⅷ

Dial

to report serious emergencies. It’s free from your

wireless phone.

FollowingSafetyGuidelines

To operate your phone safely and efficiently, always follow any special regulations in a

given area.Turn your phone off in areas where use is forbidden or when it may cause

interference or danger.

UsingYourPhoneNearOtherElectronicDevices

Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radiofrequency (RF) signals.

However, RF signals from wireless phones may affect inadequately shielded electronic

equipment.

RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic

operating systems and/or entertainment systems in motor vehicles. Check with the

manufacturer or their representative to determine if these systems are adequately

shielded from external RF signals. Also check with the manufacturer regarding any

equipment that has been added to your vehicle.

Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices, such as pacemakers and

hearing aids, to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF signals.

TurningOffYourPhoneBeforeFlying

Turn off your phone before boarding any aircraft.To prevent possible interference with

aircraft systems, the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations require you

to have permission from a crew member to use your phone while the plane is on the

ground.To prevent any risk of interference, FCC regulations prohibit using your phone

To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone off when in a blasting

area or in other areas with signs indicating two-way radios should be turned off.

Construction crews often use remote-control RF devices to set off explosives.

Turn your phone off when you’re in any area that has a potentially explosive

atmosphere. Although it’s rare, your phone and accessories could generate sparks.

Sparks can cause an explosion or fire, resulting in bodily injury or even death.These

areas are often, but not always, clearly marked.They include:

ⅷ

Fueling areas such as gas stations.

ⅷ

Below deck on boats.

ⅷ

Fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities.

ⅷ

Areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust, or

metal powders.

ⅷ

Any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your

vehicle’s engine.

UsingYourSprint PCSPhoneWith

aHearingAidDevice

Your Sprint PCS Phone has been tested for hearing aid device compatibility. When some

wireless phones are used near some hearing devices (hearing aids and cochlear

implants), users may detect a buzzing, humming, or whining noise. Some hearing

devices are more immune than others to this interference noise, and phones also vary in

the amount of interference they generate.

The wireless telephone industry has developed ratings for some of their mobile phones,

to assist hearing device users in finding phones that may be compatible with their

hearing devices. Not all phones have been rated. Phones that have been rated will have

an “M3”or “M4”rating on the box. Your SCP-200 by Sanyo has an M3 rating.

Note: PhonesratedM3orM4meet FCCrequirementsandmaygeneratelessinterferencetohearing

devicesthanphonesthat arenot labeled. M4isthebetter/higherofthetworatings.

The M3/M4 ratings do not guarantee successful interoperation between your phone

and hearing aid device. Results will vary depending on the level of immunity of your

hearing device and degree of your hearing loss.

The more immune your hearing aid device is, the less likely you are to experience

interference noise from your wireless phone. Hearing aid devices should have ratings

similar to phones. Ask your hearing healthcare professional for the rating of your aids.

Most new hearing aids have at least an M2 immunity level. Add the “M”ratings of your

hearing aid and your phone to determine probable usability:

ⅷ

Any combined rating equal to or greater than six offers best use.

ⅷ

Any combined rating equal to five is considered normal use.

ⅷ

Any combined rating equal to four is considered usable.

Thus, if you pair an M3 hearing aid with an M3 phone, you will have a combined rating

of six for “best use.”

Sprint further suggests you experiment with multiple phones (even those not labeled

M3 or M4) while in the store to find the one that works best with your hearing aid

device. Should you experience interference after purchasing your phone, promptly

return it to the store. With the Sprint 14-day Risk-Free Guarantee you may return the

phone within 14 days of purchase for a full refund.

SpecificAbsorptionRates(SAR)forWirelessPhones

The SAR is a value that corresponds to the relative amount of RF energy absorbed in the

head of a user of a wireless handset.

The SAR value of a phone is the result of an extensive testing, measuring and

calculation process. It does not represent how much RF the phone emits. All phone

models are tested at their highest value in strict laboratory settings. But when in

operation, the SAR of a phone can be substantially less than the level reported to the

FCC.This is because of a variety of factors including its proximity to a base station

antenna, phone design and other factors. What is important to remember is that each

phone meets strict federal guidelines.Variations in SARs do not represent a variation

in safety.

All phones must meet the federal standard, which incorporates a substantial margin of

safety. As stated above, variations in SAR values between different model phones do not

mean variations in safety. SAR values at or below the federal standard of 1.6W/kg are

considered safe for use by the public.

The highest reported SAR values of the SCP-200 are:

AMPS/CDMAmodes(Part 22):

Head: 1.360W/kg; Body-worn: 1.050W/kg

What isradiofrequencyenergy(RF)?

Radiofrequency (RF) energy is another name for radio waves. It is one form of

electromagnetic energy that makes up the electromagnetic spectrum. Some of the

other forms of energy in the electromagnetic spectrum are gamma rays, x-rays and

light. Electromagnetic energy (or electromagnetic radiation) consists of waves of

electric and magnetic energy moving together (radiating) through space.The area

where these waves are found is called an electromagnetic field.

Radio waves are created due to the movement of electrical charges in antennas. As

they are created, these waves radiate away from the antenna. All electromagnetic

waves travel at the speed of light.The major differences between the different types

of waves are the distances covered by one cycle of the wave and the number of waves

that pass a certain point during a set time period.The wavelength is the distance

covered by one cycle of a wave.The frequency is the number of waves passing a given

point in one second. For any electromagnetic wave, the wavelength multiplied by

the frequency equals the speed of light.The frequency of an RF signal is usually

expressed in units called hertz (Hz). One Hz equals one wave per second. One

kilohertz (kHz) equals one thousand waves per second, one megahertz (MHz) equals

one million waves per second, and one gigahertz (GHz) equals one billion waves

per second.

RF energy includes waves with frequencies ranging from about 3000 waves per

second (3 kHz) to 300 billion waves per second (300 GHz). Microwaves are a subset of

radio waves that have frequencies ranging from around 300 million waves per

second (300 MHz) to three billion waves per second (3 GHz).

Howisradiofrequencyenergyused?

Probably the most important use of RF energy is for telecommunications. Radio and

TV broadcasting, wireless phones, pagers, cordless phones, police and fire

department radios, point-to-point links and satellite communications all rely on

RF energy.

Other uses of RF energy include microwave ovens, radar, industrial heaters and

sealers, and medical treatments. RF energy, especially at microwave frequencies, can

heat water. Since most food has a high water content, microwaves can cook food

quickly. Radar relies on RF energy to track cars and airplanes as well as for military

applications. Industrial heaters and sealers use RF energy to mold plastic materials,

glue wood products, seal leather items such as shoes and pocketbooks, and process

food. Medical uses of RF energy include pacemaker monitoring and programming.

Howisradiofrequencyradiationmeasured?

RF waves and RF fields have both electrical and magnetic components. It is often

convenient to express the strength of the RF field in terms of each component. For

example, the unit “volts per meter”(V/m) is used to measure the electric field

strength, and the unit “amperes per meter”(A/m) is used to express the magnetic

field strength. Another common way to characterize an RF field is by means of the

power density. Power density is defined as power per unit area. For example, power

density can be expressed in terms of milliwatts (one thousandth of a watt) per

square centimeter (mW/cm2 or microwatts (one millionth of a watt) per square

centimeter (μW/cm2).

The quantity used to measure how much RF energy is actually absorbed by the body

is called the Specific Absorption Rate or SAR.The SAR is a measure of the rate of

absorption of RF energy. It is usually expressed in units of watts per kilogram (W/kg)

or milliwatts per gram (mW/g).

What biologicaleffectscanbecausedbyRFenergy?

The biological effects of radiofrequency energy should not be confused with the

effects from other types of electromagnetic energy.

Very high levels of electromagnetic energy, such as is found in X-rays and gamma

rays can ionize biological tissues. Ionization is a process where electrons are stripped

away from their normal locations in atoms and molecules. It can permanently

damage biological tissues including DNA, the genetic material. Ionization only

occurs with very high levels of electromagnetic energy such as X-rays and gamma

rays. Often the term radiation is used when discussing ionizing radiation (such as

that associated with nuclear power plants).

The energy levels associated with radiofrequency energy, including both radio waves

and microwaves, are not great enough to cause the ionization of atoms and

molecules.Therefore, RF energy is a type of non-ionizing radiation. Other types of

non-ionizing radiation include visible light, infrared radiation (heat) and other forms

of electromagnetic radiation with relatively low frequencies.

Large amounts of RF energy can heat tissue.This can damage tissues and increase

body temperatures.Two areas of the body, the eyes and the testes, are particularly

vulnerable to RF heating because there is relatively little blood flow in them to carry

away excess heat.

The amount of RF radiation routinely encountered by the general public is too low to

produce significant heating or increased body temperature. Still, some people have

questions about the possible health effects of low levels of RF energy. It is generally

agreed that further research is needed to determine what effects actually occur and

whether they are dangerous to people. In the meantime, standards-setting

organizations and government agencies are continuing to monitor the latest

scientific findings to determine whether changes in safety limits are needed to

protect human health.

Section 4A: Safety

FDA, EPA and other US government agencies responsible for public health and safety

have worked together and in connection withWHO to monitor developments and

identify research needs related to RF biological effects.

What levelsofRFenergyareconsideredsafe?

Various organizations and countries have developed standards for exposure to

radiofrequency energy.These standards recommend safe levels of exposure for both

the general public and for workers. In the United States, the FCC has used safety

guidelines for RF environmental exposure since 1985.

The FCC guidelines for human exposure to RF electromagnetic fields are derived

from the recommendations of two expert organizations, the National Council on

Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP) and the Institute of Electrical and

Electronics Engineers (IEEE). In both cases, the recommendations were developed by

scientific and engineering experts drawn from industry, government, and academia

after extensive reviews of the scientific literature related to the biological effects of

RF energy.

Many countries in Europe and elsewhere use exposure guidelines developed by the

International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP).The

ICNIRP safety limits are generally similar to those of the NCRP and IEEE, with a few

exceptions. For example, ICNIRP recommends different exposure levels in the lower

and upper frequency ranges and for localized exposure from certain products such

as hand-held wireless telephones. Currently, theWorld Health Organization is

working to provide a framework for international harmonization of RF safety

standards.

The NCRP, IEEE, and ICNIRP all have identified a whole-body Specific Absorption Rate

(SAR) value of 4 watts per kilogram (4W/kg) as a threshold level of exposure at which

harmful biological effects may occur. Exposure guidelines in terms of field strength,

power density and localized SAR were then derived from this threshold value. In

addition, the NCRP, IEEE, and ICNIRP guidelines vary depending on the frequency of

the RF exposure.This is due to the finding that whole-body human absorption of RF

energy varies with the frequency of the RF signal.The most restrictive limits on

whole-body exposure are in the frequency range of 30-300 MHz where the human

body absorbs RF energy most efficiently. For products that only expose part of the

body, such as wireless phones, exposure limits in terms of SAR only are specified.

The exposure limits used by the FCC are expressed in terms of SAR, electric and

magnetic field strength, and power density for transmitters operating at

frequencies from 300 kHz to 100 GHz.The specific values can be found in two FCC

bulletins, OET Bulletins 56 and 65:

http://www.fcc.gov/oet/info/documents/bulletins/#56;

http://www.fcc.gov/oet/info/documents/bulletins/#65.

WhyhastheFCCadoptedguidelinesforRFexposure?

The FCC authorizes and licenses products, transmitters, and facilities that generate

RF and microwave radiation. It has jurisdiction over all transmitting services in the

U.S. except those specifically operated by the Federal Government. While the FCC

does not have the expertise to determine radiation exposure guidelines on its own, it

Section 4A: Safety

149

does have the expertise and authority to recognize and adopt technically sound

standards promulgated by other expert agencies and organizations, and has done

so. (Our joint efforts with the FDA in developing this website is illustrative of the kind

of inter-agency efforts and consultation we engage in regarding this health and

safety issue.)

Under the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA), the FCC has certain

responsibilities to consider whether its actions will significantly affect the quality of

the human environment.Therefore, FCC approval and licensing of transmitters and

facilities must be evaluated for significant impact on the environment. Human

exposure to RF radiation emitted by FCC-regulated transmitters is one of several

factors that must be considered in such environmental evaluations. In 1996, the FCC

revised its guidelines for RF exposure as a result of a multi-year proceeding and as

required by theTelecommunications Act of 1996.

Radio and television broadcast stations, satellite-earth stations, experimental radio

stations and certain wireless communication facilities are required to undergo

routine evaluation for RF compliance when they submit an application to the FCC for

construction or modification of a transmitting facility or renewal of a license. Failure

to comply with the FCC’s RF exposure guidelines could lead to the preparation of a

formal Environmental Assessment, possible Environmental Impact Statement and

eventual rejection of an application.Technical guidelines for evaluating compliance

with the FCC RF safety requirements can be found in the FCC’s OET Bulletin 65.

http://www.fcc.gov/oet/info/documents/bulletins/#65

Low-powered, intermittent, or inaccessible RF transmitters and facilities are

normally excluded from the requirement for routine evaluation for RF exposure.

These exclusions are based on standard calculations and measurement data

indicating that a transmitting station or equipment operating under the conditions

prescribed is unlikely to cause exposures in excess of the guidelines under normal

conditions of use. Such exclusions are not exclusions from compliance, but, rather,

exclusions from routine evaluation.The FCC’s policies on RF exposure and

categorical exclusion can be found in Section 1.1307(b) of the FCC’s Rules and

Regulations [(47 CFR 1.1307(b)].

HowcanIobtaintheSpecificAbsorptionRate(SAR)valueformy

wirelessphone?

The FCC requires that wireless phones sold in the United States demonstrate

compliance with human exposure limits adopted by the FCC in 1996.The relative

amount of RF energy absorbed in the head of a wireless telephone-user is given by

the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR), as explained above.The FCC requires wireless

phones to comply with a safety limit of 1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6W/kg) in terms

of SAR.

Information on SAR for a specific phone model can be obtained for many recently

manufactured phones using the FCC identification (ID) number for that model.The

FCC ID number is usually printed somewhere on the case of the phone. Sometimes it

may be necessary to remove the battery pack to find the number. Once you have the

ID number, go to the followingWeb address: www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid. On this page,

you will see instructions for entering the FCC ID number.Type the FCC ID number

exactly as requested (the Grantee Code is the first three characters, the Equipment

Product Code is the rest of the FCC ID number).Then click on “Start Search.”The

“Grant of Equipment Authorization”for your telephone should appear. Read through

the grant for the section on “SAR Compliance,”“Certification of Compliance with FCC

Rules for RF Exposure”or similar language.This section should contain the value(s)

for typical or maximum SAR for your phone.

Phones and other products authorized since June 2, 2000, should have the

maximum SAR levels noted directly on the “Grant of Equipment Authorization.”For

phones and products authorized between about mid-1998 and June 2000, detailed

information on SAR levels is typically found in the exhibits associated with the grant.

Once a grant is accessed, the exhibits can be viewed by clicking on “View Exhibit.”

Grants authorized prior to 1998 are not part of the electronic database but, rather,

have been documented in the form of paper records.

The FCC database does not list phones by model number. However, consumers may

find SAR information from other sources as well. Some wireless phone

manufacturers make SAR information available on their ownWeb sites. In addition,

some non-government Web sites provide SARs for specific models of wireless

phones. However, the FCC has not reviewed these sites and makes no guarantees of

their accuracy. Finally, phones certified by the CellularTelecommunications and

Internet Association (CTIA) are required to provide SAR information to consumers in

the instructional materials that come with the phones.

Dohands-freekitsforwirelessphonesreducerisksfromexposureto

RFemissions?

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.

Dowirelessphoneaccessoriesthat claimtoshieldtheheadfromRF

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.

What arewirelesstelephonebasestations?

Fixed antennas used for wireless telecommunications are referred to as cellular base

stations, cell stations, PCS (“Personal Communications Service”) stations or

telephone transmission towers.These base stations consist of antennas and

electronic equipment. Because the antennas need to be high in the air, they are often

located on towers, poles, water tanks, or rooftops.Typical heights for freestanding

base station towers are 50-200 feet.

Some base stations use antennas that look like poles, 10 to 15 feet in length, that are

referred to as “omni-directional”antennas.These types of antennas are usually

found in rural areas. In urban and suburban areas, wireless providers now more

commonly use panel or sector antennas for their base stations.These antennas

consist of rectangular panels, about 1 by 4 feet in dimension.The antennas are

usually arranged in three groups of three antennas each. One antenna in each group

is used to transmit signals to wireless phones, and the other two antennas in each

group are used to receive signals from wireless phones.

At any base station site, the amount of RF energy produced depends on the number

of radio channels (transmitters) per antenna and the power of each transmitter.

Typically, 21 channels per antenna sector are available. For a typical cell site using

sector antennas, each of the three transmitting antennas could be connected to up

to 21 transmitters for a total of 63 transmitters. However, it is unlikely that all of the

transmitters would be transmitting at the same time. When omni-directional

antennas are used, a cellular base station could theoretically use up to 96

transmitters, but this would be very unusual, and, once again, it is unlikely that all

transmitters would be in operation simultaneously. Base stations used for PCS

communications generally require fewer transmitters than those used for cellular

radio transmissions, since PCS carriers usually have a higher density of base station

antenna sites.

Arewirelesstelephonebasestationssafe?

The electromagnetic RF signals transmitted from base station antennas stations

travel toward the horizon in relatively narrow paths. For example, the radiation

pattern for an antenna array mounted on a tower can be likened to a thin pancake

centered around the antenna system.The individual pattern for a single array of

sector antennas is wedge-shaped, like a piece of pie. As with all forms of

electromagnetic energy, the power decreases rapidly as one moves away from the

antenna.Therefore, RF exposure on the ground is much less than exposure very close

to the antenna and in the path of the transmitted radio signal. In fact, ground-level

exposure from such antennas is typically thousands of times less than the exposure

levels recommended as safe by expert organizations. So exposure to nearby

residents would be well within safety margins.

Section 4A: Safety

152

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

Cellular and PCS base stations in the United States are required to comply with limits

for exposure recommended by expert organizations and endorsed by government

agencies responsible for health and safety. Measurements made near cellular and

PCS base station antennas mounted on towers have confirmed that ground-level

exposures are typically thousands of times less than the exposure limits adopted by

the FCC. In fact, in order to be exposed to levels at or near the FCC limits for cellular or

PCS frequencies an individual would essentially have to remain in the main

transmitted radio signal (at the height of the antenna) and within a few feet from

the antenna.This is, of course, very unlikely to occur.

When cellular and PCS antennas are mounted on rooftops, RF levels on that roof or

on others near by would probably be greater than those typically encountered on the

ground. However, exposure levels approaching or exceeding safety guidelines

should be encountered only very close to or directly in front of the antennas. In

addition, for sector-type antennas, typically used for such rooftop base stations, RF

levels to the side and in back of these antennas are insignificant. General guidelines

on antenna installations and circumstances that might give rise to a concern about

an facility’s conformance with FCC regulations can be found in A Local Government

Official’s Guide toTransmitting Antenna RF Emission Safety: Rules, Procedures, and

Practical Guidance.This Guide can be accessed at: http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety.

DoestheFCCroutinelymonitorradiofrequencyradiationfromantennas?

The FCC does not have the resources or the personnel to routinely monitor the

emissions for all the thousands of transmitters that are subject to FCC jurisdiction.

However, the FCC does have measurement instrumentation for evaluating RF levels

in areas that may be accessible to the public or to workers. If there is evidence for

potential non-compliance with FCC exposure guidelines for a FCC-regulated facility,

staff from the FCC’s Office of Engineering andTechnology or the FCC Enforcement

Bureau can conduct and investigation, and, if appropriate, perform actual

measurements. Circumstances that could give rise to a concern about an facility’s

Canlocalandstategovernmentalbodiesestablishlimitsfor

RFexposure?

Although some local and state governments have enacted rules and regulations

about human exposure to RF energy in the past, theTelecommunications Act of

1996 requires the Federal Government to control human exposure to RF emissions.

In particular, Section 704 of the Act states that, “No State or local government or

instrumentality thereof may regulate the placement, construction, and

modification of personal wireless service facilities on the basis of the environmental

effects of radio frequency emissions to the extent that such facilities comply with

the Commission’s regulations concerning such emissions.”Further information on

Dowirelessphonesposeahealthhazard?

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 radiofrequency

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 isFDA’sroleconcerningthesafetyofwirelessphones?

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 radiofrequency 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.

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.

What kindsofphonesarethesubject ofthisupdate?

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 radiofrequency 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.

What aretheresultsoftheresearchdonealready?

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 radiofrequency 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, glioma, 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 researchisneededtodecidewhetherRFexposurefromwireless

phonesposesahealthrisk?

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.

What isFDAdoingtofindout moreabout thepossiblehealtheffectsof

wirelessphoneRF?

FDA is working with the U.S. NationalToxicology 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

radiofrequency energy (RF).

FDA has been a leading participant in theWorld 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

Section 4A: Safety

156

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

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 CellularTelecommunications & 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 stepscanItaketoreducemyexposuretoradiofrequencyenergyfrom

mywirelessphone?

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 radiofrequency 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.

Ⅲ

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.

What about childrenusingwirelessphones?

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

radiofrequency 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.

What about wirelessphoneinterferencewithmedicalequipment?

Radiofrequency energy (RF) from wireless phones can interact with some electronic

devices. For this reason, FDA helped develop a detailed test method to measure

Section 4A: Safety

157

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 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.

WhichotherfederalagencieshaveresponsibilitiesrelatedtopotentialRF

healtheffects?

Certain agencies in the Federal Government have been involved in monitoring,

researching or regulating issues related to human exposure to RF radiation.These

agencies include the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the Environmental

Protection Agency (EPA), the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA),

the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), the National

Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) and the Department of

Defense (DOD).

By authority of the Radiation Control for Health and Safety Act of 1968, the Center

for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) of the FDA develops performance

standards for the emission of radiation from electronic products including X-ray

equipment, other medical devices, television sets, microwave ovens, laser products

and sunlamps.The CDRH established a product performance standard for

microwave ovens in 1971 limiting the amount of RF leakage from ovens. However,

the CDRH has not adopted performance standards for other RF-emitting products.

The FDA is, however, the lead federal health agency in monitoring the latest research

developments and advising other agencies with respect to the safety of RF-emitting

products used by the public, such as cellular and PCS phones.

The FDA’s microwave oven standard is an emission standard (as opposed to an

exposure standard) that allows specific levels of microwave leakage (measured at

five centimeters from the oven surface).The standard also requires ovens to have

two independent interlock systems that prevent the oven from generating

microwaves the moment that the latch is released or the door of the oven is opened.

The FDA has stated that ovens that meet its standards and are used according to the

manufacturer’s recommendations are safe for consumer and industrial use. More

information is available from: www.fda.gov/cdrh.

The EPA has, in the past, considered developing federal guidelines for public

exposure to RF radiation. However, EPA activities related to RF safety and health are

presently limited to advisory functions. For example, the EPA now chairs an Inter-

agency RadiofrequencyWorking Group, which coordinates RF health-related

activities among the various federal agencies with health or regulatory

responsibilities in this area.

OSHA is responsible for protecting workers from exposure to hazardous chemical

and physical agents. In 1971, OSHA issued a protection guide for exposure of

workers to RF radiation [29 CFR 1910.97]. However, this guide was later ruled to be

only advisory and not mandatory. Moreover, it was based on an earlier RF exposure

standard that has now been revised. At the present time, OSHA uses the IEEE and/or

FCC exposure guidelines for enforcement purposes under OSHA’s “general duty

clause”(for more information see:http://www.osha-

slc.gov/SLTC/radiofrequencyradiation/index.html.

NIOSH is part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. It conducts

research and investigations into issues related to occupational exposure to chemical

and physical agents. NIOSH has, in the past, undertaken to develop RF exposure

guidelines for workers, but final guidelines were never adopted by the agency.

NIOSH conducts safety-related RF studies through its Physical Agents Effects Branch

in Cincinnati,Ohio.

The NTIA is an agency of the U.S. Department of Commerce and is responsible for

authorizing Federal Government use of the RF electromagnetic spectrum. Like the

FCC, the NTIA also has NEPA responsibilities and has considered adopting guidelines

for evaluating RF exposure from U.S. Government transmitters such as radar and

military facilities.

The Department of Defense (DOD) has conducted research on the biological effects

of RF energy for a number of years.This research is now conducted primarily at the

U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory located at Brooks Air Force Base,Texas.The DOD

Web site for RF biological effects information is listed with other sites in conjunction

with a question on other sources of information, below.

Whofundsandcarriesout researchonthebiologicaleffectsof

RFenergy?

Research into possible biological effects of RF energy is carried out in laboratories in

the United States and around the world. In the U.S., most research has been funded

by the Department of Defense, due to the extensive military use of RF equipment

such as radar and high-powered radio transmitters. In addition, some federal

agencies responsible for health and safety, such as the Environmental Protection

Agency (EPA) and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), have sponsored and

conducted research in this area. At the present time, most of the non-military

research on biological effects of RF energy in the U.S. is being funded by industry

organizations. More research is being carried out overseas, particularly in Europe.

In 1996, theWorld Health Organization (WHO) established the International EMF

Project to review the scientific literature and work towards resolution of health

concerns over the use of RF technology. WHO maintains aWeb site that provides

extensive information on this project and about RF biological effects and research

(www.who.ch/peh-emf).

FDA, EPA and other US government agencies responsible for public health and safety

have worked together and in connection withWHO to monitor developments and

identify research needs related to RF biological effects.

HowdoesFCCAudit CellPhoneRF?

After FCC grants permission for a particular cellular telephone to be marketed, FCC

will occasionally conduct “post-grant”testing to determine whether production

versions of the phone are being produced to conform with FCC regulatory

requirements.The manufacturer of a cell phone that does not meet FCC’s regulatory

requirements may be required to remove the cell phone from use and to refund the

purchase price or provide a replacement phone, and may be subject to civil or

criminal penalties. In addition, if the cell phone presents a risk of injury to the user,

FDA may also take regulatory action.The most important post-grant test, from a

consumer’s perspective, is testing of the RF emissions of the phone. FCC measures

the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) of the phone, following a very rigorous testing

protocol. As is true for nearly any scientific measurement, there is a possibility that

the test measurement may be less than or greater than the actual RF emitted by the

phone.This difference between the RF test measurement and actual RF emission is

because test measurements are limited by instrument accuracy, because test

measurement and actual use environments are different, and other variable factors.

This inherent variability is known as “measurement uncertainty.”When FCC

conducts post-grant testing of a cell phone, FCC takes into account any

measurement uncertainty to when determining whether regulatory action is

appropriate.This approach ensures that when FCC takes regulatory action, it will

have a sound, defensible scientific basis.

FDA scientific staff reviewed the methodology used by FCC to measure cell phone RF,

and agreed it is an acceptable approach, given our current understanding of the risks

presented by cellular phone RF emissions. RF emissions from cellular phones have

not been shown to present a risk of injury to the user when the measured SAR is less

than the safety limits set by FCC (an SAR of 1.6 w/kg). Even in a case where the

maximum measurement uncertainty permitted by current measurement standards

was added to the maximum permissible SAR, the resulting SAR value would be well

below any level known to produce an acute effect. Consequently, FCC’s approach

with measurement uncertainty will not result in consumers being exposed to any

known risk from the RF emitted by cellular telephones.

FDA will continue to monitor studies and literature reports concerning acute effects

of cell phone RF, and concerning chronic effects of long-term exposure to cellular

telephone RF (that is, the risks from using a cell phone for many years). If new

information leads FDA to believe that a change to FCC’s measurement policy may be

appropriate, FDA will contact FCC and both agencies will work together to develop a

mutually-acceptable approach.

RoamingCoverage. You are roaming anytime your phone indicates that you are

roaming. Roaming coverage is only available with certain devices and, unless included

as part of your Services, will result in additional charges. Roaming calls placed

"manually" (through an operator or with a credit card) will always incur separate and

additional charges. Depending on your phone settings, you may automatically roam if

there is a gap or interruption in coverage within the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network

coverage area and roaming coverage areas. See your phone guide for how to adjust

phone settings. Certain features and services may not be available in roaming coverage

areas (including PCSVision, voicemail, call waiting, call forwarding, etc.).

Charges. Carefully review the terms of your Services. You will be assessed charges

based on the terms of your Services including, without limitation, monthly recurring

charges and charges based on actual usage (e.g., charges for long distance, roaming,

call forwarding, directory assistance, etc.). Airtime and other time based usage charges

are calculated from when your device first initiates contact with a network until the

network connection is broken, whether or not you were actually successful in

connecting to the intended destination. However, you will not be charged for voice calls

that ring and do not pick up, or if you get a busy signal. For voice calls received by your

device, you are charged from the time shortly before the phone starts ringing until the

call is terminated. You are charged for an entire voice call based on the time period in

which the call is initiated. Partial minutes of use are rounded up to the next minute.

Sprint PCSVisionCharges. Vision usage is measured in bytes, not in minutes. Bytes

are rounded up to kilobytes. Usage rounding occurs at the top of each clock hour while

in a session and at the end of each session and is then charged to you based on the

terms of your Services. Depending on your Services, usage may be charged against an

allowance or on a fixed price per kilobyte. Usage charges may be rounded up to the next

cent at monthly or other intervals. In certain instances, you may not know that your

session has not ended. As long as your device is connected to our network, you will incur

data usage charges. You will be charged for all data directed to the internet address (or

"IP address") assigned to your device, regardless of who initiates the activity or whether

your device actually receives the data.This includes, but is not limited to, the amount of

data associated with the particular information/item (e.g. game, ringer, email, etc.),

additional data used in accessing, transporting and routing this information/item on

our network, data from partial or interrupted downloads, re-sent data, and data

associated with unsuccessful attempts to reach websites or use applications. Based on

these and a number of other factors (e.g., the specific application, network

performance, etc.) data used and charged to you will vary widely, even for the same

activity. Estimates of data usage – for example, the size of downloadable files – will not

be accurate or a reliable predictor of actual usage. Your invoice will not separately

identify the number of kilobytes attributable to your use of specific sites, sessions or

services.

TaxesandSurcharges.We invoice you for taxes, fees and other charges levied by or

remitted directly to federal, state, local or foreign governments including, without

limitation, sales, gross receipts, Universal Service, use, and excise taxes. If you claim any

tax exemption, you must provide us with a valid tax-exempt document.Tax

exemptions are not applied retroactively. We also invoice you for surcharges that we

collect and keep to pay for the costs of complying with government programs such as

number pooling and portability, and Enhanced 911 service; these charges are not the

taxes nor government imposed assessments.

Invoicing&Payment. Invoicing cycles and dates may change from time to time.

Monthly recurring and related charges for Services are generally invoiced one invoicing

cycle in advance. Other charges are invoiced soon after they are incurred. Most usage is

generally applied to the invoicing cycle in which they are incurred, but in some

instances may be applied to subsequent invoicing cycles. You are responsible for all

charges associated with any device activated on your account, regardless of who used

the device. You must pay all charges by the due date on the invoice. Past dueamounts

("ASL") on any account without notice. We will notify you of an ASL based on your credit

or payment history and may reduce the ASL at any time with prior notice. An ASL should

not be relied on to manage usage on your account. We may suspend an account

without prior notice when the account balance reaches the ASL, even if the account is

not past due. Services can be restored upon payment of an amount that brings the

account balance below the ASL and any past due amounts. If we require a deposit for

you to establish or maintain an account, we will hold the deposit as partial guarantee of

payment for Services. We may change the deposit amount at any time with notice for

good reason. Except as we allow, a deposit may not be used to pay any invoice or delay

payment.The deposit amount, the length of time we hold the deposit and changes to

the deposit amount are determined based on your credit and payment history.The rate

of interest, if any, on the deposit is subject to change. We may mix deposits with our

other funds. If your account is terminated for any reason, we may without notice apply

your deposit to any outstanding charges. We may send any remaining deposit amounts

to your last known address within 75 days after account termination. If the funds are

returned to us, you may claim these funds for one year from the date of return. Any

money held during this one-year period will not accrue interest for your benefit and are

subject to a servicing fee charged against the balance. You forfeit any portion of the

money left after the one-year period.

OtherSprint PCSVisionTerms.You will not receive voice calls while usingVision.

Vision is not available for use with server devices or host computer applications, other

systems that drive continuous heavy traffic or data sessions, or as substitutes for

private lines or frame relay connections. UnlimitedVision plans/options may not be

with other equipment (e.g., computers, etc.) through use of connection kits or other

phone-to-computer/PDA accessories, or Bluetooth or other wireless technology. We

may terminate services without notice for any misuse. You may have access to certain

games, ringers, screen savers and other items on ourVision site ("Premium Services")

purchases on your Sprint PCS invoice based on the charges as specified at purchase.

Subject to the terms of the content purchased, we may delete premium and non-

pictures, games and other content. We may limit the amount of Premium Services you

may purchase in a specific timeframe (month, week, day, or other time period).

messages that can be retained through your account. Indicators of messages on your

device, including mailbox icons, may not always provide an up to date indication of new

messages and you may at times need to manually reset or clear your mailbox indicator.

Legitimate messages may be interrupted by software aimed at prevention of SPAM or

similar messages.

CallerID. If you do not want people you call to receive the number assigned to your

phone, call us at 1-888-211-4PCS for information about automatic Caller ID blocking.

The number assigned to your phone can be blocked on a per-call basis by dialing *67 +
