Safety Information  
Important: Read this information before using your wireless handheld  
phone.  
Exposure  
to Radio  
Frequency  
Signals  
Your wireless handheld portable telephone is a low power radio  
transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it receives and also sends out  
radio frequency (RF) signals. In August 1996, the Federal  
Communications Commissions (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines  
with safety levels for handheld wireless phones. Those guidelines are  
consistent with safety standards previously set by both U.S. and  
international standards bodies:  
American National Standards Institute. C95.1 (1992).  
National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements.  
Report 86 (1986).  
International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection.  
(1996).  
Ministry of Health (Canada). Safety Code 6.  
Those standards were based on comprehensive and periodic evaluations of  
the relevant scientific literature. For example, over 120 scientists,  
engineers, and physicians from universities, government health agencies,  
and industry reviewed the available body of research to develop the ANSI  
Standard (C95.1).  
The design of your phone complies with the FCC guidelines (and those  
standards).  
Important: To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines,  
if you wear a handset on your body use the Motorola supplied or approved  
carrying case, holster, or other body-worn accessory. If you do not use a  
body-worn accessory, ensure the antenna is at least one inch (2.5  
centimeters) from your body when transmitting. Use of non-Motorola  
accessories may violate FCC RF exposure guidelines.  
Antenna  
Care  
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized  
antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the phone and  
may violate FCC regulations.  
Phone  
Operation  
Normal Operation:  
Hold the phone as you would any other telephone, with the antenna  
pointed up and over your shoulder.  
6
 
Safety Information  
Tips on Efficient Operation:  
Observe the following guidelines to operate your phone most efficiently:  
Extend your antenna fully.  
Do not touch the antenna unnecessarily when the phone is in use.  
Contact with the antenna affects call quality and may cause the  
phone to operate at a higher power level than otherwise needed.  
Caution:All batteries can cause property damage, injury or burns if a  
conductive material, such as jewelry, keys or beaded chains, touches  
exposed terminals. The material may complete an electrical circuit and  
become quite hot. To protect against such unwanted current drain,  
exercise care in handling any charged battery, particularly when placing  
it inside your pocket, purse or other container with metal objects. When the  
battery is detached from the phone: your battery is packed with a  
protective cover; please use this cover for storing your battery when  
not in use.  
Batteries  
Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless telephones in the  
areas where you drive. Always obey them. Observe the following guidelines  
when using your phone while driving:  
Driving  
Give full attention to driving–driving safely is your first responsibility;  
Use hands-free operation, if available;  
Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if  
driving conditions so require.  
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals. However,  
certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals  
from your wireless phone.  
Electronic  
Devices  
Pacemakers  
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a  
minimum separation of six (6”) inches be maintained between a  
handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference  
with the pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the  
independent research by and recommendations of Wireless Technology  
Research.  
7
Safety Information  
Persons with pacemakers:  
Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches from their  
pacemaker when the phone is turned ON;  
Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket;  
Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the poten-  
tial for interference.  
Should turn the phone OFF immediately if you have any reason to  
suspect that interference is taking place.  
Hearing Aids  
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the  
event of such interference, you may want to consult your hearing aid  
manufacturer to discuss alternatives.  
Other Medical Devices  
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of  
your device to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF  
energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this  
information.  
Turn your phone OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted  
in these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities  
may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.  
Vehicles  
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded  
electronic systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its  
representative regarding your vehicle. You should also consult the  
manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.  
Posted  
Facilities  
Turn your phone OFF in any facility where posted notices so  
require.  
Aircraft  
FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while in the air. Switch OFF  
your phone before boarding an aircraft.  
Blasting  
Areas  
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone  
OFF when in a “blasting area” or in areas posted: “Turn off two-way  
radio.” Obey all signs and instructions.  
8
Safety Information  
Turn your phone OFF and do not remove the battery when in any area  
with a potentially explosive atmosphere, and obey all signs and  
instructions. Sparks from your battery in such areas could cause an  
explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.  
Potentially  
Explosive  
Atmospheres  
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always,  
clearly marked. They include fueling areas such as gasoline stations;  
below deck on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities; areas  
where fuel odors are present (for example, if a gas/propane leak occurs in  
a car or home); areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such  
as grain, dust, or metal powders; and any other area where you would  
normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.  
An air bag inflates with great force. DO NOT place objects, including both Vehicles  
Equipped  
with Air  
Bags  
installed or portable wireless equipment, in the area over the air bag or in  
the air bag deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is  
improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious injury could result.  
Your wireless radiotelephone is designed for excellent durability under  
normal use conditions. Protect your wireless telephone from water  
damage that could result from spills or excessive exposure to rain. Never  
submerge your wireless phone.

Introduction to Batteries  
Each battery is shipped in an uncharged state with a protective  
clip on it. Before you can use your phone, you will need to  
remove the clip from the battery and charge it.  
Battery Clips  
It is a good idea to save the protective clip to store and carry the  
battery when not in use. The clip prevents objects from touching  
the battery terminals, thereby reducing the risk of injury or  
damage from a short circuit.  
Removing the Main Battery Clip

Charging Batteries  
Using the Internal Rapid Charger  
Believe it or not, there is a battery charger built right into your  
phone! To make use of the internal charger, you will need either  
*
an AC adapter or a vehicle power adapter.  
Keep in mind: When the internal charger is in use and the  
phone is ON, you can still place and receive calls. However,  
talking on the phone requires energy, so your phone may not  
charge while the call is in progress.  
Attach  
Plug the AC or vehicle power adapter into

Charging Batteries  
The Battery Indicator  
In the upper right corner of your phone’s display, there is a  
battery indicator filled with three segments. The more segments  
you see, the greater the charge.  
The border of the battery icon will flash during charging.  
When the battery is fully charged, the battery icon will stop  
flashing and become solid.  
Low  
High  
Battery Storage and Disposal  
To prolong the life of batteries, avoid exposing them to  
temperatures below -10°C (14°F) or above 45°C (113°F). It is a  
good idea to take your phone with you when you leave your car.  
Never dispose of batteries in fire.  
Caution: To prevent injuries or burns, do not allow metal  
objects to contact or short circuit the battery terminals.  
16  
   
Charging Batteries  
Expert Performance (E•P®)Charging System  
The E•P system enables your phone’s built-in charger to  
communicate with installed batteries and tailor its charging  
cycle to optimize performance. If you see Invalid Battery  
when you power up the phone, the built-in charger is not able to  
communicate with the battery and cannot charge it. There are  
several possible reasons for this message. The most likely one is  
that the battery is not a Motorola original and it does not have  
the appropriate E•P technology. We recommend that you use  
only Motorola original batteries and accessories and that you  
store your batteries in their protective clips when not in use.  
17  
Charging Batteries  
Using the Desktop Charger  
The Desktop Charger’s front pocket can charge batteries while  
they are attached to your phone, and the rear pocket can charge  
batteries separately.  
If you have a Desktop Charger:  
Attach

Tip:  
Open the phone to see the charge status for the front pocket.  
See pages 26-27  
to learn how to  
read the display.  
The Rear Pocket LED Indicator:  
Red means the battery is charging.  
Flashing yellow means the battery is waiting to be charged.  
Green means the battery is charged to 90% of its capacity.  
Another hour of charging will bring it up to 100% capacity.  
Flashing red means the battery is damaged and cannot be  
charged.  
Desktop Charger Charging Times  
The time it takes for your battery to obtain a full charge is  
affected by a variety of factors, including:  
Temperature Batteries should be at or near room tempera-  
ture when charging. To prolong battery life and charge  
capacity, avoid exposing your batteries to temperatures below  
-10°C (14°F) or above 45°C (113°F). It is a good idea to  
take your phone with you when you leave your car.  
Inactivity New batteries, or batteries that have been stored  
for long periods of time, may not rapid charge properly. In  
these instances, the battery requires an overnight charge.  
Extended Usage Over extended periods of time, batteries  
gradually wear down and require longer charging times.  
This is normal. If you charge your battery regularly and  
notice a decrease in talk-time or an increase in charging  
time, then it is probably time to purchase a new battery.

Pause Dialing  
*
When you call automated systems like Voicemail or bank-by-  
*
phone, a recorded message prompts you for PIN numbers,  
account numbers, etc. Pause Dialing can make using  
automated systems easy by allowing you to store these numbers  
in the same memory location as the automated system’s access  
number. Separate each set of numbers with a “pause”– a  
special character that tells your phone to wait before sending  
additional numbers.  
Storing a Number with Pause Dialing  
The pause occupies a one-digit space in your phone’s memory.  
Once you have entered a string of numbers and pauses, store the  
string in the same way you store other entries.  
Tip:

Getting Started with  
the Data Connectivity Kit  
Attaching the Data Cable  
Before you install the fax/modem software on your computer,  
it is a good idea to attach the cable to the computer and phone.  
Plug into Plug the smaller end of the data cable, with  
1.  
2.  
Phone  
the release tab facing up, into the accessory  
connector on your phone.  
Plug into The other end of the data cable is a 9-pin plug  
Computer Find the matching serial port on the back of  
your computer and insert the 9-pin plug, then  
tighten the screws by hand.  
2.  
1.  
To indicate the cable is attached on both ends, your phone will  
beep once.  
Keep in mind: To save power, some laptops deactivate unused  
serial ports. If this happens, open an application that uses the  
serial port, like a fax or dial-up application, and your computer  
will automatically activate the port.  
Installing the Software  
To begin making wireless data calls, you will need to install  
the software from the CD-ROM that came with the Data  
Connectivity Kit. The software is designed to take you through  
the installation process step by step.  
117  
 
Placing a Data Call  
Keep in mind: You will not be able to place a data or fax call  
through your phone’s keypad, using last ten dialed, or with  
Caller ID. All data and fax calls must be placed through your  
computer.  
Connect Make sure the cable is connected properly.  
1.  
2.  
Place  
Call  
Open the application on your computer, like a  
fax or dial-up application, and place the call  
through the application on your computer.  
The phone will display the number your com-  
puter is calling (or the name if in the internal  
Phone Book). You will see: Connecting.  
If the call is not connected, your phone will  
return to the idle display.

Ending a Data Call  
Always end a data call by closing the connection through the  
application on your computer. See the User’s Guide that came  
with the software for more information.  
Keep in mind: If you set pre-arrangement before the call, your  
phone will remain in the pre-arranged state when the data call  
is ended. You will see either Fax Ready or Data Ready. See  
page 120 for more information.  
Important: The normal ways to end calls, like pressing º or  
the Smart Button, will end a data call but may disrupt your  
computer. Likewise, disconnecting the cable or turning OFF  
your phone will also end a data call, but may affect the  
application on your computer. We recommend always closing  
the data connection through the software application.  
119  
 
Setting up Pre-arrangement  
Some networks require you to change a setting on your phone  
before you can receive an incoming fax or data call. This is  
called pre-arrangement. There is no need to worry about  
placing data or fax calls – the pre-arrangement setting only  
applies to receiving calls.  
Keep in mind: In pre-arrangement mode, you will not be able  
to receive incoming voice calls.

Troubleshooting  
Q. I pressed the power button, but nothing happened. What’s  
wrong with my phone?  
A. Check that you have installed a battery and that the battery is charged. See  
page 12 for information about installing your battery.  
Locked  
Q. The display says  
. How do I unlock my phone?  
A. Try entering the last three digits of your wireless number. If that does not  
work, try using the factory preset lock code: 123. If this fails, call your  
Service Provider (the company that sends you your monthly wireless bill)  
for assistance. For more information on your phone’s security features, see  
the Lock/Security chapter, page 86.  
Q. My battery did not last as long as I expected. What can I do to  
extend battery life?  
A. To get the most from your battery, make sure it is fully charged. To charge  
the battery to 100% of its capacity, leave it in the charger for an extra hour  
after the charger’s light turns green.  
Exposing your battery to extreme temperatures—below -10°C (14°F) or  
above 45°C (113°F)—can shorten battery life. Batteries are especially  
sensitive to high temperature extremes. It is a good idea to always take your  
phone with you when you leave your car.  
Q. I tried to place a call and received a fast busy signal.  
A. This sound means that your call was not processed. For example, the  
network may be temporarily busy. To redial the number, press the Smart  
Button or press æ before ending your call attempt, or press º and try the  
call again later. See page 99 for more information on redialing.  
128  
 
Troubleshooting  
Q. I tried to place a call but received an alternating  
high/low tone. What does this mean?  
A. This sound means your call did not connect to the network. Most likely, you  
dialed the number too soon after turning the phone ON. Wait until you see  
your phone’s idle display (in the main display either Ready, the name of  
your Service Provider, or your programmable banner) before placing a call.  
An alternating tone may also indicate that your phone’s signal is blocked.  
Make sure the antenna is fully extended and move clear of any obstructions,  
like bridges, parking garages, tall buildings, etc.  
Invalid  
Q. Whenever I turn the phone ON, the display says:  
Battery  
. What does this mean and why am I not able to charge  
the battery?  
A. Your wireless phone uses the Motorola Expert Performance (E•P) Charging  
System. The E•P system enables the built-in charger to communicate with  
attached batteries and tailor its charging cycle to optimize performance.  
If you see Invalid Battery when you power up the phone, the built-in  
charger is not able to communicate with the battery and cannot charge it.  
You could see this message for several reasons. The most likely one is that  
the battery is not a Motorola original and it does not have the appropriate  
E•P technology. We recommend that you use only Motorola original  
batteries and accessories and that you store your batteries in their  
protective covers when not in use.  
1 Call  
Q. My phone started beeping, and the display says:  
Unanswered  
. What happened?  
A. Someone tried to call you while you were in an area where the signal was  
weak. Press Ç to clear your display, extend your phone’s antenna, and  
avoid obstructions like tunnels, parking garages and tall buildings  
whenever possible.  
129  
Troubleshooting  
Q. My phone was stolen. What should I report and to whom?  
A. Report a stolen phone to the police and to your Service Provider (the  
company that sends you your monthly wireless service bills).  
Q. I plugged the data cable* into my phone but my phone did not  
beep. How do I know if the data cable is ready to go?  
A. The beep is a sure sign that you are setup correctly. If you did not hear the  
beep, the first thing to check is that your phone is data capable. To do so, see  
page 116.  
Next make sure that both ends of the data cable are connected, the smaller  
end to your phone and larger to your computer. Also check the model  
number of the cable to be sure you have the right one. Look for SYN7464  
printed on the cable.  
If all of the above checks out, your computer may have deactivated the port  
to save power. Try opening an application that uses the port, like a fax or  
dial-up application, and your computer will automatically activate the port.  
*
Q. My phone beeped when I attached the data cable but my fax  
and data applications don’t work at all. What’s wrong?  
A. Keep in mind that you must be in an area with digital coverage. Check your  
phone’s display for  
coverage area.  
(the Digital Indicator) to be sure you’re in a digital  
Some wireless networks may not support data or fax transmission. If you see  
the digital indicator but you are roaming on an unfamiliar network, this  
may be the case.  
Also remember that data and fax transmission usually requires a  
subscription. Call your Service Provider for more information.  
Q. When sending data* with the data cable, why does the  
computer show a connection rate of 19200 Kbps?  
A. 19200 is the rate of the connection between your computer and the phone.  
The rate of the connection between your phone and the network is displayed  
on your phone and will be either 14400 or 9600.  
Network and service dependent feature. Not available in all areas.

Troubleshooting  
*
Q. I can’t end my data call by closing the application on my  
computer. What can I do?  
A. If necessary, try pressing º on the phone. You might also disconnect the  
cable or turn OFF the phone. Remember, if possible always close the  
connection through your computer. These alternative methods may disrupt  
the application on your computer.  
*
Service Not  
Q. I launched the Minibrowser but the display says:

. What is wrong?  
A. You are in an area without service. To see if you have digital service, you can  
always look in the display for  
(the Digital Indicator).  
If you see the Digital Indicator and still cannot use the Minibrowser, you  
may be connected to a digital network that does not support wireless  
Internet access.

The U.S. Food and Drug  
Administration’s Center for  
Devices and Radiological Health  
Consumer Update on Mobile Phones  
FDA has been receiving inquiries about the safety of mobile phones,  
including cellular phones and PCS phones. The following summarizes  
what is known--and what remains unknown--about whether these  
products can pose a hazard to health, and what can be done to minimize  
any potential risk. This information may be used to respond to questions.  
Why the concern?  
Mobile phones emit low levels of radiofrequency energy (i.e.,  
radiofrequency radiation) in the microwave range while being used. They  
also emit very low levels of radiofrequency energy (RF), considered non-  
significant, when in the stand-by mode. It is well known that high levels of  
RF can produce biological damage through heating effects (this is how  
your microwave oven is able to cook food). However, it is not known  
whether, to what extent, or through what mechanism, lower levels of RF  
might cause adverse health effects as well. Although some research has  
been done to address these questions, no clear picture of the biological  
effects of this type of radiation has emerged to date. Thus, the available  
science does not allow us to conclude that mobile phones are absolutely  
safe, or that they are unsafe. However, the available scientific evidence does  
not demonstrate any adverse health effects associated with the use of  
mobile phones.  
What kinds of phones are in question?  
Questions have been raised about hand-held mobile phones, the kind that  
have a built-in antenna that is positioned close to the user's head during  
normal telephone conversation. These types of mobile phones are of  
concern because of the short distance between the phone's antenna--the  
primary source of the RF--and the person's head. The exposure to RF from  
mobile phones in which the antenna is located at greater distances from  
the user (on the outside of a car, for example) is drastically lower than that  
from hand-held phones, because a person's RF exposure decreases rapidly  
with distance from the source. The safety of so-called “cordless phones,”  
which have a base unit connected to the telephone wiring in a house and  
which operate at far lower power levels and frequencies, has not been  
questioned.  
137  
How much evidence is there that hand-held mobile  
phones might be harmful?  
Briefly, there is not enough evidence to know for sure, either way; however,  
research efforts are on-going. The existing scientific evidence is conflicting  
and many of the studies that have been done to date have suffered from  
flaws in their research methods. Animal experiments investigating the  
effects of RF exposures characteristic of mobile phones have yielded  
conflicting results. A few animal studies, however, have suggested that low  
levels of RF could accelerate the development of cancer in laboratory  
animals. In one study, mice genetically altered to be predisposed to  
developing one type of cancer developed more than twice as many such  
cancers when they were exposed to RF energy compared to controls. There  
is much uncertainty among scientists about whether results obtained from  
animal studies apply to the use of mobile phones. First, it is uncertain how  
to apply the results obtained in rats and mice to humans. Second, many of  
the studies that showed increased tumor development used animals that  
had already been treated with cancer-causing chemicals, and other studies  
exposed the animals to the RF virtually continuously--up to 22 hours per  
day.  
For the past five years in the United States, the mobile phone industry has  
supported research into the safety of mobile phones. This research has  
resulted in two findings in particular that merit additional study:  
1. In a hospital-based, case-control study, researchers looked for an  
association between mobile phone use and either glioma (a type of  
brain cancer) or acoustic neuroma (a benign tumor of the nerve  
sheath). No statistically significant association was found between  
mobile phone use and acoustic neuroma. There was also no  
association between mobile phone use and gliomas when all types of  
types of gliomas were considered together. It should be noted that the  
average length of mobile phone exposure in this study was less than  
three years.  
When 20 types of glioma were considered separately, however, an  
association was found between mobile phone use and one rare type of  
glioma, neuroepithelliomatous tumors. It is possible with multiple  
comparisons of the same sample that this association occurred by  
chance. Moreover, the risk did not increase with how often the mobile  
phone was used, or the length of the calls. In fact, the risk actually  
decreased with cumulative hours of mobile phone use. Most cancer  
138  
causing agents increase risk with increased exposure. An ongoing  
study of brain cancers by the National Cancer Institute is expected to  
bear on the accuracy and repeatability of these results.  
2. Researchers conducted a large battery of laboratory tests to assess the  
effects of exposure to mobile phone RF on genetic material. These  
included tests for several kinds of abnormalities, including mutations,  
chromosomal aberrations, DNA strand breaks, and structural changes  
in the genetic material of blood cells called lymphocytes. None of the  
tests showed any effect of the RF except for the micronucleus assay,  
which detects structural effects on the genetic material. The cells in  
this assay showed changes after exposure to simulated cell phone  
radiation, but only after 24 hours of exposure. It is possible that  
exposing the test cells to radiation for this long resulted in heating.  
Since this assay is known to be sensitive to heating, heat alone could  
have caused the abnormalities to occur. The data already in the  
literature on the response of the micronucleus assay to RF are  
conflicting. Thus, follow-up research is necessary.  
FDA is currently working with government, industry, and academic  
groups to ensure the proper follow-up to these industry-funded  
research findings. Collaboration with the Cellular  
Telecommunications Industry Association (CTIA) in particular is  
expected to lead to FDA providing research recommendations and  
scientific oversight of new CTIA-funded research based on such  
recommendations.  
Two other studies of interest have been reported  
recently in the literature:  
1. Two groups of 18 people were exposed to simulated mobile phone  
signals under laboratory conditions while they performed cognitive  
function tests. There were no changes in the subjects' ability to recall  
words, numbers, or pictures, or in their spatial memory, but they were  
able to make choices more quickly in one visual test when they were  
exposed to simulated mobile phone signals. This was the only change  
noted among more than 20 variables compared.  
2. In a study of 209 brain tumor cases and 425 matched controls, there  
was no increased risk of brain tumors associated with mobile phone  
use. When tumors did exist in certain locations, however, they were  
more likely to be on the side of the head where the mobile phone was  
used. Because this occurred in only a small number of cases, the  
139  
increased likelihood was too small to be statistically significant.  
In summary, we do not have enough information at this point to assure  
the public that there are, or are not, any low incident health problems  
associated with use of mobile phones. FDA continues to work with all  
parties, including other federal agencies and industry, to assure that  
research is undertaken to provide the necessary answers to the outstanding  
questions about the safety of mobile phones.  
What is known about cases of human cancer that  
have been reported in users of hand-held mobile  
phones?  
Some people who have used mobile phones have been diagnosed with  
brain cancer. But it is important to understand that this type of cancer also  
occurs among people who have not used mobile phones. In fact, brain  
cancer occurs in the U.S. population at a rate of about 6 new cases per  
100,000 people each year. At that rate, assuming 80 million users of  
mobile phones (a number increasing at a rate of about 1 million per  
month), about 4800 cases of brain cancer would be expected each year  
among those 80 million people, whether or not they used their phones.  
Thus it is not possible to tell whether any individual's cancer arose because  
of the phone, or whether it would have happened anyway. A key question is  
whether the risk of getting a particular form of cancer is greater among  
people who use mobile phones than among the rest of the population.  
One way to answer that question is to compare the usage of mobile phones  
among people with brain cancer with the use of mobile phones among  
appropriately matched people without brain cancer. This is called a case-  
control study. The current case-control study of brain cancers by the  
National Cancer Institute, as well as the follow-up research to be sponsored  
by industry, will begin to generate this type of information.  
What is FDA's role concerning the safety of  
mobile phones?  
Under the law, FDA does not review the safety of radiation-emitting  
consumer products such as mobile phones before marketing, as it does  
with new drugs or medical devices. However, the agency has authority to  
take action if mobile phones are shown to emit radiation at a level that is  
hazardous to the user. In such a case, FDA could require the  
manufacturers of mobile 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  
140  
at this time, FDA has urged the mobile phone industry to take a number of  
steps to assure public safety. The agency has recommended that the  
industry:  
support needed research into possible biological effects of RF of  
the type emitted by mobile phones;  
design mobile phones in a way that minimizes any RF exposure to  
the user that is not necessary for device function; and  
cooperate in providing mobile phone users with the best possible  
information on what is known about possible effects of mobile  
phone use on human health.  
At the same time, FDA belongs to an interagency working group of the  
federal agencies that have responsibility for different aspects of mobile  
phone safety to ensure a coordinated effort at the federal level. These  
agencies are:  
National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health  
Environmental Protection Agency  
Federal Communications Commission  
Occupational Health and Safety Administration  
National Telecommunications and Information Administration  
The National Institutes of Health also participates in this group.  
In the absence of conclusive information about any  
possible risk, what can concerned individuals do?  
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 people are concerned about  
avoiding even potential risks, there are simple steps they can take to do so.  
For example, time is a key factor in how much exposure a person receives.  
Those persons who spend long periods of time on their hand-held mobile  
phones could consider holding lengthy conversations on conventional  
phones and reserving the hand-held models for shorter conversations or  
for situations when other types of phones are not available.  
People who must conduct extended conversations in their cars every day  
could switch to a type of mobile phone that places more distance between  
their bodies and the source of the RF, since the exposure level drops off  
dramatically with distance. For example, they could switch to  
a mobile phone in which the antenna is located outside the  
vehicle,  
141  
a hand-held phone with a built-in antenna connected to a  
different antenna mounted on the outside of the car or built into  
a separate package, or  
a headset with a remote antenna to a mobile phone carried at the  
waist.  
Again, the scientific data do not demonstrate that mobile phones are  
harmful. But if people are concerned about the radiofrequency energy  
from these products, taking the simple precautions outlined above can  
reduce any possible risk.
