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 the safety

standards previously set by both U.S. and

international standards bodies:

ANSI C95.1 (1992) *

NCRP Report 86 (1986) *

ICNIRP (1996) *

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 (C951).

The design of your phone complies with the FCC guidelines (and

those standards).

SAFETY INFORMATION FOR

FCC RF EXPOSURE

SAFETY AND WARRANTY

WARNING! READ THIS INFORMATION BEFORE USING

CAUTIONS

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

frequency 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. Use only the supplied or an

approved antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or

attachments could impair call quality, damage the phone, or result

in violation of FCC regulations. Do not use the phone with a

damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into contact with

the skin, a minor burn may result. Please contact your local dealer

for replacement antenna.

BODY-WORN OPERATION

This device was tested for typical body-worn operations with the

back of the phone kept 2.0 cm. from the body. To maintain

compliance with FCC RF exposure requirements, use only belt-clips,

holsters or similar accessories that maintain a 2.0 cm. separation

distance between the user’s body and the back of the phone,

including the antenna. The use of belt-clips, holsters and similar

accessories should not contain metallic components in its assembly.

The use of accessories that do not satisfy these requirements may

not comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, and should be

avoided.

For more information about RF exposure, please visit the

FCC website at www.fcc.gov.

141

SAR INFORMATION

SAFETY AND WARRANTY

THIS MODEL PHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S

REQUIREMENTS FOR 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 radiofrequency (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 1.6 W/kg. * Tests for SAR are

conducted 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 (e.g.,

at the ear and worn on the body) as required by the FCC for each

model. The highest SAR value for this model phone when tested for

use at the ear is 1.3 W/Kg and when worn on the body, as described

in this user guide, is 0.6W/Kg. (Body-worn measurements differ

among phone models, depending upon available accessories and

FCC requirements). While there may be differences between the

SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet

the government requirement for safe exposure.

142

SAR INFORMATION

SAFETY AND WARRANTY

The SAR testing for Body-worn operation was performed with a

belt clip that provided a 20mm separation. The User’s Manual

indicates that any holsters/clips used with this device should contain

no metallic components.

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

PP4PN-E8300.

Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be

found on the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association

(CTIA) web-site at http://www.wow-com.com.

* In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones

used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over one gram

of tissue. The standard incorporates a sub-stantial margin of safety

to give additional protection for the public and to account for any

variations in measurements.

143

FCC HEARING-AID COMPATIBILITY

(HAC) REGULATIONS FOR

WIRELESS DEVICES

SAFETY AND WARRANTY

On July 10, 2003, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission

(FCC) Report and Order in WT Docket 01-309 modified the

exception of wireless phones under the Hearing Aid Compatibility

Act of 1988 (HAC Act) to require digital wireless phones be

compatible with hearing-aids. The intent of the HAC Act is to

ensure reasonable access to telecommunications services for persons

with hearing disabilities.

While some wireless phones are used near some hearing devices

(hearing aids and cochlear implants), users may detect a buzzing,

humming, or whining noise. Some hearing devices are more

immune than others to this interference noise, and phones also

vary in the amount of interference they generate.

The wireless telephone industry has developed a rating system for

wireless phones, to assist hearing device users find phones that may

be compatible with their hearing devices. Not all phones have been

rated. Phones that are rated have the rating on their box or a label

located on the box.

The ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary depending on the

user’s hearing device and hearing loss. If your hearing device

happens to be vulnerable to interference, you may not be able

to use a rated phone successfully. Trying out the phone with your

hearing device is the best way to evaluate it for your personal

needs.

M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 or M4 meet FCC requirements and are

likely to generate less interference to hearing devices than phones

that are not labeled. M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.

Hearing devices may also be rated. Your

hearing device manufacturer or hearing

health professional may help you find this

rating. Higher ratings mean that the hearing

device is relatively immune to interference

noise. The hearing aid and wireless phone

rating values are then added together. A sum of 5 is considered

acceptable for normal use. A sum of 6 is considered for best use.

144

FCC HEARING-AID COMPATIBILITY

(HAC) REGULATIONS FOR

WIRELESS DEVICES

SAFETY AND WARRANTY

In the above example, if a hearing aid meets the M2 level rating

and the wireless phone meets the M3 level rating, the sum of the

two values equal M5. This should provide the hearing aid user with

“normal usage” while using their hearing aid with the particular

wireless phone. “Normal usage” in this context is defined as a

signal quality that is acceptable for normal operation.

The M mark is intended to be synonymous with the U mark. The T

mark is intended to be synonymous with the UT mark. The M and

T marks are recommended by the Alliance for Telecommunications

Industries Solutions (ATIS). The U and UT marks are referenced in

Section 20.19 of the FCC Rules. The HAC rating and measurement

procedure are described in the American National Standards

Institute (ANSI) C63.19 standard.

FDA CONSUMER UPDATE

SAFETY AND WARRANTY

U.S. Food and Drug Administration -

Center for Devices and Radiological Health

Consumer Update on Wireless Phones

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.

146

FDA CONSUMER UPDATE

SAFETY AND WARRANTY

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 inter-agency

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?

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.

147

FDA CONSUMER UPDATE

SAFETY AND WARRANTY

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 predisposed 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 neu-roma,

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

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.

148

FDA CONSUMER UPDATE

SAFETY AND WARRANTY

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. 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.

149

FDA CONSUMER UPDATE

SAFETY AND WARRANTY

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.

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.

150

FDA CONSUMER UPDATE

SAFETY AND WARRANTY

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 that no interference occurs when a person

uses a “compatible” phone and a “compatible” 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

PROTECT YOUR WARRANTY

SAFETY AND WARRANTY

Read your Warranty carefully, with the special consideration to

paragraph seven of the Limited Warranty for your unit.

“Warranty does not apply to... or to any product or part thereof

which has suffered through alteration... mishandling, misuse,

neglect or accident”.

Many companies are making look alike accessories and in some

cases, promoting that their product is equal to or better than the

Pantech product. Be careful. Some of these products may not be

compatible to use with your Pantech product and may damage the

unit or cause it to malfunction. If service is required on your unit

and it is determined that a non-Pantech accessory has created the

problem with your unit, the Warranty will not apply. In addition,

if the unit has already suffered irreversible damage by reason of a

non-compatible accessory, the Warranty will be voided. To protect

your Warranty, use only compatible accessories which cannot

damage or interfere with the functioning of your Pantech product.
