call under any circumstances, even when your phone  
is locked. Your phone’s preprogrammed emergency  
number(s) may not work in all locations, and  
sometimes an emergency call cannot be placed due  
to network, environmental, or interference issues.

WARNING! Read this information  
before operating the phone.  
In August 1996, the Federal  
Communications Commission (FCC)  
of the United States, with its action  
in Report and Order FCC 96-326,  
adopted an updated safety standard  
for human exposure to Radio  
frequencies: cellular services at 800  
MHz and Personal Communication  
Services (PCS) at 1.9 GHz.  
CDMA technology uses a feature  
called DSSS (Direct Sequence  
Spread Spectrum) that enables the  
phone to keep communication from  
being crossed and to use one  
frequency channel by multiple  
users in the same specific area.  
This results in a 10-fold capacity  
increase when compared with  
analog mode. In addition, features  
such as soft/ softer handoff, hard  
handoff, and dynamic RF power  
control technologies combine to  
reduce call interruptions.  
Frequency (RF) electromagnetic  
energy emitted by FCC regulated  
transmitters. Those guidelines are  
consistent with the safety standard  
previously set by both U.S. and  
international standards bodies. The  
design of this phone complies with  
the FCC guidelines and these  
international standards.

RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is a family of web feed formats used to  
publish frequently updated content such as blog entries, news headlines or  
podcasts. An RSS document, which is called a feed, web feed, or channel,  
contains either a summary of content from an associated web site or the full  
text. RSS makes it possible for people to keep up with their favorite web sites  
in an automated manner that is easier than checking them manually.  
To add an RSS feed, you must first be on a website that supports RSS. The

1. Do wireless phones pose a  
health hazard?  
http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/topics/no  
ise/default.html  
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  
122  
 
G
G
cases, other researchers have had  
difficulty in reproducing those  
studies, or in determining the  
reasons for inconsistent results.  
Design wireless phones in a way  
that minimizes any RF exposure  
to the user that is not necessary  
for device function; and  
2. What is the FDA's role  
concerning the safety of wireless  
phones?  
Cooperate in providing users of  
wireless phones with the best  
possible information on possible  
effects of wireless phone use on  
human health.  
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.  
Although the existing scientific data  
does not justify FDA regulatory  
actions, the FDA has urged the  
wireless phone industry to take a  
number of steps, including the  
following:  
The FDA belongs to an interagency  
working group of the federal  
agencies that have responsibility  
for different aspects of RF safety to  
ensure coordinated efforts at the  
federal level. The following  
agencies belong to this working  
group:

Safety  
are sold in the United States must  
comply with FCC safety guidelines  
that limit RF exposure. The FCC  
relies on the FDA and other health  
agencies for safety questions about  
wireless phones.  
The FCC also regulates the base  
stations that the wireless phone  
networks rely upon. While these  
base stations operate at higher  
power than do the wireless phones  
themselves, the RF exposures that  
people get from these base stations  
are typically thousands of times  
lower than those they can get from  
wireless phones. Base stations are  
thus not the subject of the safety  
questions discussed in this  
developed with the advice of the  
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 far below the FCC safety  
limits.

document.  
The research done thus far has  
produced conflicting results, and  
many studies have suffered from  
flaws in their research methods.  
Animal experiments investigating  
the effects of Radio Frequency (RF)  
energy 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  
3. What kinds of phones are the  
subject of this update?  
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  
Radio Frequency (RF) energy  
because of the short distance  
between the phone and the user’s  
head.  
These RF exposures are limited by  
FCC safety guidelines that were

risk?  
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 do not 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  
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  
investigated any possible  
populations, but ten 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  
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  
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.

users. The CRADA will also include  
a broad assessment of additional  
research needs in the context of  
the latest research developments  
around the world.  
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.  
The FDA has been a leading  
participant in the World Health  
Organization International Electro  
Magnetic 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  
Cooperative Research And  
Development Agreement (CRADA)  
to do research on wireless phone  
safety. The FDA provides the  
scientific oversight, obtaining input  
7. How can I find out how much  
Radio Frequency energy exposure I  
can get by using my wireless  
phone?  
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 consultation with the  
FDA and the other federal 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  
126  
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  
(http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety)  
gives directions for locating the FCC  
identification number on your  
phone so you can find your phone’s  
RF exposure level in the online  
listing.  
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

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 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.

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  
does 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.

10 Driver SSafettyy 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.  
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:  
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.  
4. Suspend conversations during  
hazardous driving conditions or  
situations. Let the person you are  
speaking with know you are  
driving; if necessary, suspend  
the call in heavy traffic or  
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  
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.  
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  
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  
130  
 
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.  
8. Use your wireless phone to call  
for help. Your wireless phone is  
one of the greatest tools you can  
own to protect yourself and your  
family in dangerous situations --  
with your phone at your side,  
help is only three numbers away.  
Dial 911 or other local  
emergency number in the case  
of fire, traffic accident, road  
hazard, or medical emergency.  
Remember, it’s a free call on your  
wireless phone!  
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.  
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,  
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  
suspend conversations which  
have the potential to divert your  
attention from the road.

emergency services. But you  
can still use your wireless  
phone to lend a hand. If you see
