IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1. Do not expose the battery charger or adapter to direct sunlight or use it in places with high
humidity, such as a bathroom.

phone.
4. Do not use your phone in high explosive areas as the phone may generate sparks.
5. Do not damage the power cord by bending, twisting, pulling, or heating. Do not use the plug if
it is loose as it may cause a fire or electric shock.
6. Do not place any heavy items on the power cord. Do not allow the power cord to be crimped as
it may cause electric shock or fire.
7. Do not handle the phone with wet hands while it is being charged. It may cause an electric
shock or seriously damage your phone.

1. Do not place or answer calls while charging the phone as it may short-circuit the phone and/or
cause electric shock or fire.
2. Do not hold or let the antenna come in contact with your body during a call.
3. Make sure that no sharp-edged items such as animal’s teeth or nails, come into contact with the
battery. This could cause a fire.
4. Store the battery out of reach of children.
5. Be careful that children do not swallow any parts (such as rubber plugs, earphone, connection
parts of the phone, etc.) This could cause asphyxiation or suffocation resulting in serious injury

2. What is the FDA's role concerning the safety of
wireless phones?
FDA Consumer Update
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s Center for
Devices and Radiological Health Consumer Update
on Mobile Phones:
Under the law, the 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 (RF) energy at a
level that is hazardous to the user. In such a case, the
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.
1. 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 (RF) energy in the
microwave range while being used. They also emit
very low levels of RF when in standby 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.
Although the existing scientific data do not justify
FDA regulatory actions, the 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

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.
The FDA and the Cellular Telecommunications &
Internet Association (CTIA) have a formal
Cooperative Research And Development Agreement
(CRADA) to do research on wireless phone safety.
The FDA provides the scientific oversight, obtaining
input from experts in government, industry, and
academic organizations. CTIA-funded research is
conducted through contracts with 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.
6. What is the FDA doing to find out more about
the possible health effects of wireless phone RF?
The 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 (RF) energy.

All phones sold in the United States must comply with

Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
guidelines that limit Radio Frequency (RF) energy
exposures. The FCC established these guidelines in
with the participation and leadership of FDA

scientists and engineers. The standard,
health and safety agencies. The FCC limit for RF
exposure from wireless phones is set at a Specific
Absorption Rate (SAR) of 1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6
W/kg). The FCC limit is consistent with the safety
standards developed by the Institute of Electrical and
Electronic Engineering (IEEE) and the National
Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement.
The exposure limit takes into consideration the body’s
ability to remove heat from the tissues that absorb
energy from the wireless phone and is set well below
levels known to have effects. Manufacturers of wireless
phones must report the RF exposure level for each
model of phone to the FCC. The FCC website
“Recommended Practice for Determining the Spatial-
Peak Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) in the Human
Body Due to Wireless Communications Devices:
Experimental Techniques”, sets forth the first
consistent test methodology for measuring the rate
at which RF is deposited in the heads of wireless
phone users. The test method uses a tissue-
simulating model of the human head. Standardized
SAR test methodology is expected to greatly improve
the consistency of measurements made at different
laboratories on the same phone. SAR is the
measurement of the amount of energy absorbed in
tissue, either by the whole body or a small part of
the body. It is measured in watts/kg (or milliwatts/g)
of matter. This measurement is used to determine
whether a wireless phone complies with safety

9. What steps can I take to reduce my exposure to
Radio Frequency energy from my wireless phone?
10. What about children using wireless phones?
The scientific evidence does not show a danger to
users of wireless phones, including children and
teenagers. If you want to take steps to lower
exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) energy, 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.
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 (RF)
energy. Since time is a key factor in how much
exposure a person receives, reducing the amount of
time spent using a wireless phone will reduce RF
exposure. If you must conduct extended
Some groups sponsored by other national
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

discouraged from using wireless phones at all. For
example, the government in the United Kingdom

recommendation in December 2000. They noted

at the same time. This standard was approved by the
IEEE in 2000.
The FDA continues to monitor the use of wireless
phones for possible interactions with other medical
devices. Should harmful interference be found to
occur, the FDA will conduct testing to assess the
interference and work to resolve the problem.
Radio Frequency (RF) energy from wireless phones
can interact with some electronic devices. For this
reason, the FDA helped develop a detailed test
method to measure Electro Magnetic 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 the 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

3. Make sure you place your wireless phone within
easy reach and where you can reach 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.
10 Driver Safety Tips
Your wireless phone gives you the powerful ability to
communicate by voice almost anywhere, anytime. An
important responsibility accompanies the benefits of
wireless phones, one that every user must uphold.
4. Suspend conversations during hazardous driving
conditions or situations. Let the person you are
speaking with know you are driving; if necessary,
When operating 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:
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.
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.
5. Don’t 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
is common sense. Do not get caught in a
dangerous situation because you are reading or
writing and not paying attention to the road or
nearby vehicles.
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.

6. Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible,

place calls when you are not moving or before
pulling into traffic. Try to plan your calls before
you begin your trip or attempt to coincide your
calls with times you may be stopped at a stop
sign, red light, or otherwise stationary. But if you
need to dial while driving, follow this simple tip --
dial only a few numbers, check the road and your
mirrors, then continue.
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 911 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
can still 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
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.

The ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary
depending on the user's hearing device and hearing
loss. If your hearing device happens to be vulnerable
to interference, you may not be able to use a rated
phone successfully. Trying out the phone with your
hearing device is the best way to evaluate it for your
personal needs.
FCC Hearing-Aid Compatibility (HAC)
Regulations for Wireless Devices
On July 10, 2003, the U.S. Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) Report and Order in WT Docket
01-309 modified the exception of wireless phones
under the Hearing Aid Compatibility Act of 1988
(HAC Act) to require digital wireless phones be
compatible with hearing-aids. The intent of the HAC
Act is to ensure reasonable access to
M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC
requirements and are likely to generate less
interference to hearing devices than phones that are
not labeled. M4 is the better/higher of the two
ratings.
telecommunications services for persons with hearing
disabilities.
While 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.
Hearing devices may also be rated. Your hearing
device manufacturer or hearing health professional
may help you find this rating. Higher ratings mean
that the hearing device is relatively immune to
interference noise. The hearing aid and wireless
phone rating values are then added together. A sum
of 5 is considered acceptable for normal use. A sum
of 6 is considered for best use.
The wireless telephone industry has developed a
rating system for wireless phones, to assist hearing
device users to find phones that may be compatible
with their hearing devices. Not all phones have been
rated. Phones that are rated have the rating on their
box or a label located on the box.
