abruptly disconnects even when
established?
A Press the [SEND] key.
A When frequency is unstable or weak
or if there are too many users,
connection may be cut off even after it
was established. Please try again later
or attempt after relocating to other
areas.
Q How do I view all numbers stored in
memory?
A Press the down navigation key.
Q Why does the LCD not turn on?
Q Why is the connection inconsistent or
not audible in certain areas?
A Remove the battery and turn on the
power after placing it back on. If there
is no change, fully charge the battery
and try again.
A When frequency environment is
unstable in a certain area, connection
may be inconsistent and not audible.
Relocate to another area and try again.
Q Why is there an echo when a
connection is made with certain
telephones in a certain area?
A This is called the ‘Echo Phenomenon’,
where it occurs if connection volume is
too high or caused by special
properties (semi electronic telephone
exchange) of the equipment on the
other end.

Q&A
Q Why does the phone heat up?
Q I cannot find the lock, PIN, or PUK
code. What is my password?
A The phone may get hot when there is a
very long call duration or when games
are played or even when surfing the
Internet for a long time. This has no
effect upon the life of the product or
performance.
A The default lock code is ‘0000’. If you
forget or lose the lock code, contact
your phone dealer. If you forget or lose
a PIN or PUK code, or if you have not
received such a code, contact your
network service provider.
Q Why does the battery life get shorter in
standby mode?
A The battery is worn out. As time passes,
the battery life gradually becomes
shorter. If the battery lasts about half
the amount of time as when first
purchased, it’s time to purchase a new
battery.
Q Why does the battery run out so
quickly during normal use?
A It is due to the user environment or a
large number of calls or weak signal.
Q Why is no number dialed when you
recall a Address Book entry?
A Check that the number has been
stored correctly by using the Address
book Search feature. Re-store them, if
necessary.

microwave range while being used.
They also emit very low levels of RF
when in the 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
phones are shown to emit
radiofrequency energy (RF) 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.
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;

wireless phones with the best
possible information on possible
effects of wireless phone use on

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 subject
of the safety questions discussed in
this document.

3. What kinds of phones are the
subject of this update?
National Telecommunications and
Information Administration
The term ‘wireless phone’ refers here to
handheld 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 FCC safety guidelines that were
developed with the advice of the FDA
and other federal health and safety
agencies. When the phone is located at

Commission (FCC). All phones that are

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 far below the
FCC safety limits.
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.
4. 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 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

which the phone is held, or which
model of phone is used.
6. What is the FDA doing to find out
more about the possible health
effects of wireless phone RF?
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

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. The FDA and the
Cellular Telecommunications & Internet
Association (CTIA) have a formal

do research on wireless phone safety.
The FDA provides the scientific
oversight, obtaining input from
experts in government, industry, and
academic organizations. CTIA-funded

CRADA will also include a broad
assessment of additional research
needs in the context of the latest
research developments around the
world.

forth the first consistent test

9. What steps can I take to reduce my
exposure to radiofrequency 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 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. 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

Radio frequency energy (RF) from
wireless phones can interact with

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

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 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 wireless
phone EMI. The FDA has tested hearing
aids for interference from handheld
wireless phones and helped develop a

device. A number of hands-free
wireless phone accessories are readily
available today. Whether you choose
an installed mounted device for your

set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg. * Tests for SAR
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 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. Because the
phone is designed to operate at multiple
power levels to use only the power
required to reach the network, in
