If you ever need to call Nokia Customer Care or your service provider, you
will need to provide specific information about your phone. This information
is provided on the phone’s label. We also recommend that you write down

notes” inside the front cover) and have it available if you call.
The label is on the back of the phone
(under the battery). It shows the
following:

Customer Care:

•
•
•
•
The phone’s model number (6590)
Phone type (a technical designation)

CONTACT YOUR SERVICE PROVIDER
Some service providers program a one-key customer support number into
the phone. This number can be useful if you’re having trouble dialing a
number, especially when you’re traveling outside your home area.
This one-key feature may not be available on all systems. Contact your
service provider for availability.
When you need to get in touch with your wireless service provider:
Your phone will automatically dial the provider’s customer support
number if your provider offers this feature.
If your service provider determines that the problem is Nokia-related,
their representative will direct you to the Nokia Customer Care Center
(USA) or Nokia Customer Service (Canada).

HAVE THE PHONE OR ACCESSORY HANDY
Whether you’re calling about your phone or an accessory, have the equipment
with you when you call. For example, if you’re calling about a headset,
please have it available. If a Nokia representative asks a specific question
about the accessory, you will have it available for quick reference.

Tips on efficient operation
Your phone has a built-in antenna. As with
any other radio transmitting device, donot
touch the antenna unnecessarily when the
phone is switched on.
Contact with the antenna affects call

operate at a higher power level than
otherwise needed.
Whenyouavoidtouching
the antenna area during a call, you optimize the antenna
performance and the talktime of your phone.
Normal position: Hold the phone as you would any
other telephone.

SELECTION KEYS
The left and right selection keys ( and
are beneath each corner of the display.
)
Selection keys are used to enter, select, and
exit menus, submenus, and lists, while the
scroll key is used to navigate from within
those items. A selection key’s function is
always defined by the text that appears
above it in the display.
[ 17 ]
For example, in this screen, the word Menu appears above the selection
key. Press the left selection key ( ) to enter the menu function. Press the
right selection key ( ) under Names to access phone book functions.
2
SCROLL KEY
The scroll key is positioned between the
selection keys. Press the up arrow
(
) or the down arrow (
) to
scroll through your phone’s menus and
Phone book.
Dynamic memory use
Some features in your Nokia 6590 phone, including Calendar notes, To-do
list, WAP cache, WAP bookmarks, and WAP security cache and certificates
use a common pool of memory (storage capacity) called dynamic memory.
When any of these features are used, there is less available memory for
other features which are also dependent on dynamic memory. This is
especially true with heavy use.
For example, entering 250 calendar notes, saving multiple WAP
bookmarks and entering several items in your To-do list may consume
most of the available dynamic memory. Consequently, if you attempt to
download a WAP bookmark into your phone, a message saying Memory
full may appear. To proceed, you would need to delete some of the
items/information occupying the available dynamic memory.

The voice features in your phone make communication more convenient.
You can check messages from friends or business associates, record a voice
memo, and use voice dialing and voice commands for handsfree operation.
• ABOUT VOICEMAIL
Voicemail is a network feature that allows callers to leave a voice message
for you when you are not able to take the call.
7
To use Voicemail, you must have:
•
•
•
A Voicemail subscription
A voice mailbox number
A temporary password
These items are assigned by your service provider. Your service provider
should also tell you how to record a greeting for your voice mailbox and
how to change the temporary password.
After you obtain this information from your service provider, you must
then save the voice mailbox number to your phone.
Voicemail indicators
When you receive a voice message, your phone lets you know by beeping,
displaying an icon on the screen, or showing a text message. The method
of notification depends upon your carrier.
Additionally, if you receive more than one Voicemail message, your phone
may display the number of messages that you have received. Finally, if you
subscribe to two different phone lines, the message would indicate the
line to which the message was addressed.
Note: If you have difficulty using the Voicemail feature, contact
your service provider.

“Use special characters” on page 36.
Important: If you enter your PIN as part of the automated dialing
process, anyone who has access to your phone will be able to

Notes about voice tags
Before using voice dialing, note that:
•
•
•
•
Voice tags are not language dependent. They are dependent on the
speaker's voice.
7
Voice tags are sensitive to background noise. Record them and make
calls in a quiet environment.
When recording a voice tag or making a call by saying a voice tag,
hold the phone in the normal position near to your ear.
Very short names are not accepted. Use long names and avoid similar
names for different numbers.
Note: You must say the name exactly as you said it when you
recorded it. This may be difficult in, for example, a noisy
environment or during an emergency, so you should not rely solely
upon voice dialing in all circumstances.

Timed profiles can be very useful in preventing missed calls. For example,
suppose you attend an event that requires you set your phone to the
Silent profile before the event starts, but forget to return it to Normal
until hours after the event is over. During this time, you’ve missed several
calls because your phone’s ringing tone was silent. A timed profile can
prevent this from happening by automatically returning your phone to the
default profile at a time you specify.
Note: Timed profiles can be set up to 24 hours in advance.

• NOTES ON WIRELESS INTERNET ACCESS
This section gives a brief overview of wireless Internet technology.
Technology background
WAP
A technology called Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) is to mobile
devices what the World Wide Web (WWW) is to personal computers. The
mobile community began developing WAP several years ago to provide
access to the Internet for mobile users.
[ 122 ]
Your wireless Internet browser
Today, most WAP sites are made up of text and hyperlinks. Some pages
even contain low-resolution graphics, or require data input. Your service
provider and others are free to design WAP sites as they choose, so the
sites are as variable as Web pages on the Internet.
Internet content on your personal computer is called a “web page.”
Internet content on your mobile phone is called a “page,” or “WAP card.”
GPRS
General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) is a technology used to send and
receive data via short bursts or packets over the wireless network. GPRS
allows you to stay connected to the Internet. This feature allows for faster
downloads of information and no time spent completing a dial-up connection.
Applications using GPRS include the WAP browser, text messaging and
dial-up connections for making digital data calls.
• For information about how to track time spent online, see “Check data
calls” on page 59.
• For information about sending messages via GPRS, see “Choose other
message settings” on page 74.
12
• For information about dial-up connections, refer to “GPRS dial-up
connections” on page 159.
• For availability, pricing, and subscription to GPRS services, contact
your service provider.
The service provider’s role
Because wireless Internet content is designed to be viewed from your
phone, your wireless service provider now becomes your “wireless Internet
service provider” as well.
It’s likely that your service provider has created a home page and set up
your browser to go to this page when you log on to the Internet. Once at
your service provider’s home page, you’ll find links to a number of other
sites.
[ 123 ]
• SET UP FOR BROWSING
You should not need to do anything to set up your phone for browsing.
Your service provider usually modifies the appropriate settings when you
subscribe to the feature. Contact your service provider if you have problems
using the browser.
• SIGN ON TO THE INTERNET
You use the Services menu to connect to the Internet.

16 Reference information
• BATTERY STATEMENTS
Charging and Discharging
Your phone is powered by a rechargeable battery.
Note that a new battery's full performance may be achieved only after
two or three complete charge and discharge cycles!
The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times but it will
eventually wear out. When the operating time (talk time and standby
time) is noticeably shorter than normal, it is time to buy a new battery.
Use only batteries approved by the phone manufacturer and recharge
your battery only with the chargers approved by the manufacturer.
Unplug the charger when not in use. Do not leave the battery connected
to a charger for longer than a week, since overcharging may shorten its
lifetime. If left unused, a fully charged battery will discharge itself over
time.
Temperature extremes can affect the ability of your battery to charge;
allow it to cool down or warm up first.
Use the battery only for its intended purpose.
Never use any charger or battery which is damaged or worn out.
16
Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental short-circuiting can occur
when a metallic object (coin, clip, or pen) causes direct connection of the
+ and - terminals of the battery (metal strips on the battery), for example,
when you carry a spare battery in your pocket or purse. Short-circuiting
the terminals may damage the battery or the connecting object.
Leaving the battery in hot or cold places, such as in a closed car in summer
or winter conditions, will reduce the capacity and lifetime of the battery.
Always try to keep the battery between 59°F and 77°F. A phone with a hot
[ 160 ]
Reference information
or cold battery may temporarily not work, even when the battery is fully
charged. Batteries' performance is particularly limited in temperatures
well below freezing.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire!
Dispose of batteries according to local regulations (for example,
recycling). Do not dispose of as household waste.
• IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
This section provides additional safety information. A brief overview of
safety can be found in “Safety first” on page 1.
Traffic safety
Do not use a hand-held telephone while driving a vehicle. Always secure
the phone in its holder; do not place the phone on the passenger seat or
where it can break loose in a collision or sudden stop.
Remember road safety always comes first!
Operating environment
Remember to follow any special regulations in force in any area and
always switch off your phone whenever it is forbidden to use it, or when
it may cause interference or danger.
Use the phone only in its normal operating positions.
When connecting the phone or any accessory to another device, read the

16
Electronic devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio frequency (RF)
signals. However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded
against the RF signals from your wireless phone.
[ 161 ]
PACEMAKERS
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of 6
inches (20 cm) be maintained between a hand-held 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. Persons with
pacemakers:
•
Should always keep the phone more than 6 inches (20 cm) from their
pacemaker when the phone is switched on
•
•
Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket
Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential
for interference.
•
If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place,
switch off your phone immediately.
HEARING AIDS
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the
event of such interference, you may want to consult your service provider.
Other medical devices
Operation of any radio transmitting equipment, including cellular phones,
may interfere with the functionality of inadequately protected medical
devices. Consult a physician or the manufacturer of the medical device to
determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF energy or if
you have any questions. Switch off your phone 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.
16
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded
electronic systems in motor vehicles (for example, electronic fuel
injection systems, electronic antiskid/antilock braking systems, electronic
[ 162 ]
Reference information
speed control systems, air bag systems). 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
Switch your phone off in any facility where posted notices so require.
Potentially explosive atmospheres
Switch off your phone when in any area with a potentially explosive
atmosphere and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could
cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.
Users are advised to switch off the phone when at a refueling point
(service station). Users are reminded of the need to observe restrictions on
the use of radio equipment in fuel depots (fuel storage and distribution
areas), chemical plants, or where blasting operations are in progress.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often but not always
clearly marked. They include below deck on boats; chemical transfer or
storage facilities; vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane
or butane); 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.
Vehicles
Only qualified personnel should service the phone or install the phone in
a vehicle. Faulty installation or service may be dangerous and may
invalidate any warranty which may apply to the unit.
16
Check regularly that all wireless phone equipment in your vehicle is
mounted and operating properly.
Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases or explosive materials in the
same compartment as the phone, its parts or accessories.
[ 163 ]
For vehicles equipped with an air bag, remember that an air bag inflates
with great force. Do not place objects, including both 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.
FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while in the air. Switch off your
phone before boarding an aircraft. The use of wireless telephones in an
aircraft may be dangerous to the operation of the aircraft, disrupt the
wireless telephone network, and may be illegal.
Failure to observe these instructions may lead to suspension or denial of
telephone services to the offender, legal action, or both.
• EMERGENCY CALLS
IMPORTANT! This phone, like any wireless phone, operates using
radio signals, wireless, and landline networks as well as user-
programmed functions. Because of this, connections in all
conditions cannot be guaranteed. Therefore you should never rely
solely upon any wireless phone for essential communications (for
example, medical emergencies).
Emergency calls may not be possible on all wireless phone networks or
when certain network services and/or phone features are in use. Check
with local service providers.

[ 165 ]
CERTIFICATION INFORMATION (SAR)
EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and
manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio
frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of
the U.S. Government. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines
and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The
guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent
scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of
scientific studies. The standards include a substantial safety margin
designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR
limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg.* Tests for SAR are conducted using
standard operating positions accepted by the FCC with the phone
transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency
bands. Although the 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. This is because the phone is designed to operate at
multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to reach the
network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna,
the lower the power output.
Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested
and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the limit established by
the government-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are
performed in positions and locations (for example, at the ear and worn on
the body) as required by the FCC for each model. The highest SAR value
for this model phone as reported to the FCC when tested for use at the
ear is 1.13 W/kg, and when worn on the body, as described in this user
guide, is 1.02 W/kg. (Body-worn measurements differ among phone
models, depending upon available accessories and FCC requirements).
16
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various phones
and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement.
[ 166 ]
Reference information
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone
with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF
exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model phone is on file with
the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID LJP NSM-9.
For body worn operation, this phone has been tested and meets the FCC
RF exposure guidelines when used with the Nokia accessories supplied or
designated for this product. Use of other accessories may not ensure
compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines.
*In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones used
by the public is 1.6 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over one gram of
tissue. The standard incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give
additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in
measurements. SAR values may vary depending on national reporting
requirements and the network band. For SAR information in other regions
please look under product information at www.nokia.com.

Safety is the most important call you will ever make.
A Guide to Safe and Responsible Wireless Phone Use
Tens of millions of people in the U.S. today take advantage of the unique
combination of convenience, safety and value delivered by the wireless telephone.
Quite simply, the wireless phone gives people the powerful ability to communicate
by voice--almost anywhere, anytime--with the boss, with a client, with the kids,
with emergency personnel or even with the police. Each year, Americans make
billions of calls from their wireless phones, and the numbers are rapidly growing.
But an important responsibility accompanies those benefits, one that every wireless
phone user must uphold. When driving a car, driving is your first responsibility. A
wireless phone can be an invaluable tool, but good judgment must be exercised at
all times while driving a motor vehicle--whether on the phone or not.
The basic lessons are ones we all learned as teenagers. Driving requires alertness,
caution and courtesy. It requires a heavy dose of basic common sense---keep your
head up, keep your eyes on the road, check your mirrors frequently and watch out
for other drivers. It requires obeying all traffic signs and signals and staying within
the speed limit. It means using seatbelts and requiring other passengers to do the
same.
But with wireless phone use, driving safely means a little more. This brochure is a
call to wireless phone users everywhere to make safety their first priority when
behind the wheel of a car. Wireless telecommunications is keeping us in touch,
simplifying our lives, protecting us in emergencies and providing opportunities to
help others in need.
When it comes to the use of wireless phones, safety is your most important call.
Wireless Phone "Safety Tips"
Below are safety tips to follow while driving and using a wireless phone which
should be easy to remember.
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.
2
3
4
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.
Position your wireless phone within easy reach. Make sure you place your
wireless phone within easy reach and where you can grab it without removing
your eyes from the road. If you get an incoming call at an inconvenient time, if
possible, let your voice mail answer it for you.
Suspend conversations during hazardous driving conditions or situations. Let
the person you are speaking with know you are driving; if necessary, suspend the
[ 190 ]
Appendix A Message from the CTIA
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.
Do not 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’s common sense. Don’t get caught in a
dangerous situation because you are reading or writing and not paying attention
to the road or nearby vehicles.
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
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.
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
9-1-1 or other local emergency number in the case of fire, traffic accident, road
hazard or medical emergency. Remember, it is a free call on your wireless phone!
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 9-1-1 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 still can 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 traffic accident
where no one appears injured or a vehicle you know to be stolen, call roadside
assistance or other special non-emergency wireless number.
Careless, distracted individuals and people driving irresponsibly represent a hazard
to everyone on the road. Since 1984, the Cellular Telecommunications Industry
Association and the wireless industry have conducted educational outreach to
inform wireless phone users of their responsibilities as safe drivers and good
citizens. As we approach a new century, more and more of us will take advantage of
the benefits of wireless telephones. And, as we take to the roads, we all have a
responsibility to drive safely.
The wireless industry reminds you to use your phone safely when driving.

Consumer Update on Wireless Phones
U.S. Food and Drug Administration
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 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.
2. What is FDA's role concerning the safety of wireless phones?
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.
Although the existing scientific data do not justify FDA regulatory actions, 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
Cooperate in providing users of wireless phones with the best possible information on
possible effects of wireless phone use on human health.
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:
•
•
•
•
•
National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health
Environmental Protection Agency
Federal Communications Commission
Occupational Safety and Health Administration
National Telecommunications and Information Administration
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. 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 document.
3. What kinds of phones are the subject of this update?
[ 194 ]
Appendix B Message from the FDA
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 far
below the FCC safety limits.
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 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.
5.What research is needed to decide whether RF exposure from wireless
phones poses a health risk?
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.
6. What is FDA doing to find out more about the possible health effects
of wireless phone RF?
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 radiofrequency energy (RF).
FDA has been a 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.
[ 195 ]
FDA and the Cellular Telecommunications & 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.
7. How can I find out how much radiofrequency 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 radiofrequency energy (RF) exposures. FCC established these
guidelines in consultation with FDA and the other federal health and safety agencies. The FCC
limit for RF exposure from wireless telephones 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 (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.
8. What has FDA done to measure the radiofrequency energy coming
from wireless phones?
The Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) is developing a technical standard for
measuring the radiofrequency energy (RF) exposure from wireless phones and other wireless
handsets with the participation and leadership of FDA scientists and engineers. The standard,
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 guidelines.
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.
[ 196 ]
Appendix B Message from the FDA
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.
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 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.
11. What about wireless phone interference with medical equipment?
Radiofrequency energy (RF) from wireless phones can interact with some electronic devices. For
this reason, FDA helped develop a 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 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
no interference occurs when a person uses a compatible phone and a accompanied 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.
