TIA Safety InformationThe following is the completeTIA Safety Information forwireless handheld phones.

Exposure to Radio FrequencySignal

Your wireless handheldportable phone is a low powerradio transmitter and receiver.When ON, it receives andsends out Radio Frequency(RF) signals.In August, 1996, the FederalCommunications Commissions(FCC) adopted RF exposureguidelines with safety levels forhandheld wireless phones.Those guidelines are consistentwith the safety standardspreviously set by both U.S. andinternational standards bodies:

ANSI C95.1 (1992) *

NCRP Report 86 (1986)ICNIRP (1996)

* American National StandardsInstitute; National Council onRadiation Protection andMeasurements; InternationalCommission on Non-IonizingRadiation Protection.Those standards were basedon comprehensive and periodicevaluations of the relevantscientific literature. Forexample, over 120 scientists,engineers, and physicians fromuniversities, government healthagencies, and industry reviewedthe available body of researchto develop the ANSI Standard(C95.1).The design of your phonecomplies with the FCCguidelines (and thosestandards).

78

Antenna Care

Use only the supplied or anapproved replacement antenna.Unauthorized antennas,modifications, or attachmentscould damage the phone andmay violate FCC regulations.

Phone Operation

NORMAL POSITION: Hold thephone as you would any othertelephone with the antennapointed up and over your shoulder.

Tips on Efficient Operation

For your phone to operatemost efficiently:

Don’t touch the antennaunnecessarily when the phoneis in use. Contact with theantenna affects call quality andmay cause the phone tooperate at a higher power levelthan otherwise needed.

Driving

Check the laws and regulationson the use of wireless phonesin the areas where you driveand always obey them. Also, ifusing your phone while driving,please observe the following:l Give full attention to driving

-- driving safely is your firstresponsibility;

l Use hands-free operation, ifavailable;

l Pull off the road and parkbefore making or answeringa call if driving conditions orthe law require it.

Electronic Devices

Most modern electronicequipment is shielded from RFsignals. However, certainelectronic equipment may notbe shielded against the RFsignals from your wireless phone.

Pacemakers

The Health IndustryManufacturers Associationrecommends that a minimumseparation of six (6) inches bemaintained between a handheldwireless phone and a pacemakerto avoid potential interferencewith the pacemaker. Theserecommendations are consistentwith the independent researchby and recommendations ofWireless Technology Research.

Persons with pacemakers:

l Should ALWAYS keep thephone more than six (6)inches from their pacemakerwhen the phone is turnedON;

l Should not carry the phonein a breast pocket;

l Should use the ear oppositethe pacemaker to minimize the potential forinterference;

l Should turn the phone OFFimmediately if there is anyreason to suspect thatinterference is taking place.

Hearing Aids

Some digital wireless phonesmay interfere with somehearing aids. In the event ofsuch interference, you maywant to consult your serviceprovider (or call the customerservice line to discussalternatives).

Other Medical Devices

If you use any other personalmedical device, consult themanufacturer of your device todetermine if it is adequately

FDA ConsumerUpdate

The U.S. Food and DrugAdministration’s Center forDevices and RadiologicalHealth Consumer Update onMobile Phones:1. Do wireless phones pose ahealth hazard?

The available scientificevidence does not show thatany health problems areassociated with using wirelessphones. There is no proof,however, that wireless phonesare absolutely safe. Wirelessphones emit low levels of RadioFrequency (RF) energy in themicrowave range while beingused. They also emit very lowlevels of RF when in standbymode. Whereas high levels ofRF can produce health effects(by heating tissue), exposure

90

to low level RF that does notproduce heating effects causesno known adverse healtheffects. Many studies of lowlevel RF exposures have notfound any biological effects.Some studies have suggestedthat some biological effectsmay occur, but such findingshave not been confirmed byadditional research. In somecases, other researchers havehad difficulty in reproducingthose studies, or indetermining the reasons forinconsistent results.2. What is the FDA's roleconcerning the safety ofwireless phones?

Under the law, the FDA doesnot review the safety ofradiation-emitting consumerproducts such as wirelessphones before they can be

sold, as it does with new drugsor medical devices. However,the agency has authority totake action if wireless phonesare shown to emit RadioFrequency (RF) energy at alevel that is hazardous to theuser. In such a case, the FDAcould require themanufacturers of wirelessphones to notify users of thehealth hazard and to repair,replace, or recall the phones sothat the hazard no longerexists.Although the existing scientificdata do not justify FDAregulatory actions, the FDA hasurged the wireless phoneindustry to take a number ofsteps, including the following:l Support needed research

into possible biologicaleffects of RF of the typeemitted by wireless phones;

91

For Your Safety

l Design wireless phones in away that minimizes any RFexposure to the user that isnot necessary for devicefunction; and

l Cooperate in providing usersof wireless phones with thebest possible information onpossible effects of wirelessphone use on human health.

The FDA belongs to aninteragency working group ofthe federal agencies that haveresponsibility for differentaspects of RF safety to ensurecoordinated efforts at thefederal level. The followingagencies belong to this workinggroup:l National Institute for

Occupational Safety andHealth

l Environmental ProtectionAgency

l Occupational Safety andHealth Administration

l NationalTelecommunications andInformation Administration

The National Institutes ofHealth participates in someinteragency working groupactivities, as well.The FDA shares regulatoryresponsibilities for wirelessphones with the FederalCommunications Commission(FCC). All phones that are soldin the United States mustcomply with FCC safetyguidelines that limit RFexposure. The FCC relies onthe FDA and other healthagencies for safety questionsabout wireless phones.The FCC also regulates thebase stations that the wirelessphone networks rely upon.

92

While these base stationsoperate at higher power thando the wireless phonesthemselves, the RF exposuresthat people get from thesebase stations are typicallythousands of times lower thanthose they can get fromwireless phones. Base stationsare thus not the subject of thesafety questions discussed inthis document.3. What kinds of phones arethe subject of this update?

The term “wireless phone”refers here to handheld wirelessphones with built-in antennas,often called “cell”, “mobile”, or “PCS”phones. These types of wirelessphones can expose the user tomeasurable Radio Frequency(RF) energy because of theshort distance between thephone and the user’s head.

These RF exposures are limitedby FCC safety guidelines thatwere developed with the adviceof the FDA and other federalhealth and safety agencies.When the phone is located atgreater distances from the user,the exposure to RF isdrastically lower because aperson's RF exposuredecreases rapidly withincreasing distance from thesource. The so-called “cordlessphones,” which have a baseunit connected to thetelephone wiring in a house,typically operate at far lowerpower levels, and thus produceRF exposures far below theFCC safety limits.4. What are the results of theresearch done already?

The research done thus far hasproduced conflicting results,and many studies have suffered

93

For Your Safety

from flaws in their researchmethods. Animal experimentsinvestigating the effects ofRadio Frequency (RF) energyexposures characteristic ofwireless phones have yieldedconflicting results that oftencannot be repeated in otherlaboratories. A few animalstudies, however, havesuggested that low levels of RFcould accelerate thedevelopment of cancer inlaboratory animals. However,many of the studies thatshowed increased tumordevelopment used animals thathad been geneticallyengineered or treated withcancer-causing chemicals so asto be pre-disposed to developcancer in the absence of RFexposure. Other studiesexposed the animals to RF forup to 22 hours per day. Theseconditions are not similar to

the conditions under whichpeople use wireless phones, sowe do not know with certaintywhat the results of suchstudies mean for human health.Three large epidemiologystudies have been publishedsince December 2000.Between them, the studiesinvestigated any possibleassociation between the use ofwireless phones and primarybrain cancer, glioma,meningioma, or acousticneuroma, tumors of the brainor salivary gland, leukemia, orother cancers. None of thestudies demonstrated theexistence of any harmful healtheffects from wireless phone RFexposures. However, none ofthe studies can answerquestions about long-termexposures, since the averageperiod of phone use in thesestudies was around three years.

94

5. What research is needed todecide whether RF exposurefrom wireless phones poses ahealth risk?

A combination of laboratorystudies and epidemiologicalstudies of people actually usingwireless phones would providesome of the data that areneeded. Lifetime animalexposure studies could becompleted in a few years.However, very large numbers ofanimals would be needed toprovide reliable proof of acancer promoting effect if oneexists. Epidemiological studiescan provide data that isdirectly applicable to humanpopulations, but ten or moreyears follow-up may be neededto provide answers about somehealth effects, such as cancer.This is because the intervalbetween the time of exposure

to a cancer-causing agent andthe time tumors develop — ifthey do — may be many, manyyears. The interpretation ofepidemiological studies ishampered by difficulties inmeasuring actual RF exposureduring day-to-day use ofwireless phones. Many factorsaffect this measurement, suchas the angle at which thephone is held, or which modelof phone is used.6. What is the FDA doing tofind out more about thepossible health effects ofwireless phone RF?

The FDA is working with theU.S. National ToxicologyProgram and with groups ofinvestigators around the worldto ensure that high priorityanimal studies are conductedto address important questions

95

For Your Safety

about the effects of exposureto Radio Frequency (RF)energy. The FDA has been a leadingparticipant in the World HealthOrganization InternationalElectro Magnetic Fields (EMF)Project since its inception in1996. An influential result ofthis work has been thedevelopment of a detailedagenda of research needs thathas driven the establishment ofnew research programs aroundthe world. The project has alsohelped develop a series ofpublic information documentson EMF issues. The FDA and the CellularTelecommunications & InternetAssociation (CTIA) have aformal Cooperative ResearchAnd Development Agreement(CRADA) to do research onwireless phone safety. The FDA

provides the scientificoversight, obtaining input fromexperts in government,industry, and academicorganizations. CTIA-fundedresearch is conducted throughcontracts with independentinvestigators. The initialresearch will include bothlaboratory studies and studiesof wireless phone users. TheCRADA will also include abroad assessment of additionalresearch needs in the contextof the latest researchdevelopments around theworld.7. How can I find out howmuch Radio Frequency energyexposure I can get by usingmy wireless phone?

All phones sold in the UnitedStates must comply withFederal Communications

96

Commission (FCC) guidelinesthat limit Radio Frequency (RF)energy exposures. The FCCestablished these guidelines inconsultation with the FDA andthe other federal health andsafety agencies. The FCC limitfor RF exposure from wirelessphones is set at a SpecificAbsorption Rate (SAR) of 1.6watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg).The FCC limit is consistent withthe safety standards developedby the Institute of Electricaland Electronic Engineering(IEEE) and the National Councilon Radiation Protection andMeasurement. The exposurelimit takes into considerationthe body’s ability to removeheat from the tissues thatabsorb energy from the wirelessphone and is set well belowlevels known to have effects.Manufacturers of wirelessphones must report the RF

exposure level for each modelof phone to the FCC. The FCCwebsite(http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety)gives directions for locating theFCC identification number onyour phone so you can findyour phone’s RF exposure levelin the online listing.8. What has the FDA done tomeasure the Radio Frequencyenergy coming from wirelessphones?

The Institute of Electrical andElectronic Engineers (IEEE) isdeveloping a technical standardfor measuring the RadioFrequency (RF) energyexposure from wireless phonesand other wireless handsetswith the participation andleadership of FDA scientistsand engineers. The standard,“Recommended Practice for

97

For Your Safety

Determining the Spatial-PeakSpecific Absorption Rate (SAR)in the Human Body Due toWireless CommunicationsDevices: ExperimentalTechniques”, sets forth the firstconsistent test methodologyfor measuring the rate at whichRF is deposited in the heads ofwireless phone users. The testmethod uses a tissue-simulating model of the humanhead. Standardized SAR testmethodology is expected togreatly improve theconsistency of measurementsmade at different laboratorieson the same phone. SAR is themeasurement of the amount ofenergy absorbed in tissue,either by the whole body or asmall part of the body. It ismeasured in watts/kg (ormilliwatts/g) of matter. Thismeasurement is used to

determine whether a wirelessphone complies with safetyguidelines. 9. What steps can I take toreduce my exposure to RadioFrequency energy from mywireless phone?

If there is a risk from theseproducts — and at this pointwe do not know that there is— it is probably very small. Butif you are concerned aboutavoiding even potential risks,you can take a few simple stepsto minimize your exposure toRadio Frequency (RF) energy.Since time is a key factor in howmuch exposure a personreceives, reducing the amountof time spent using a wirelessphone will reduce RF exposure.If you must conduct extendedconversations by wirelessphone every day, you couldplace more distance between

98

your body and the source ofthe RF, since the exposure leveldrops off dramatically withdistance. For example, youcould use a headset and carrythe wireless phone away fromyour body or use a wirelessphone connected to a remoteantenna. Again, the scientificdata do not demonstrate thatwireless phones are harmful.But if you are concerned aboutthe RF exposure from theseproducts, you can use measureslike those described above toreduce your RF exposure fromwireless phone use.10. What about children usingwireless phones?

The scientific evidence doesnot show a danger to users ofwireless phones, includingchildren and teenagers. If youwant to take steps to lowerexposure to Radio Frequency

(RF) energy, the measuresdescribed above would applyto children and teenagers usingwireless phones. Reducing thetime of wireless phone use andincreasing the distancebetween the user and the RFsource will reduce RF exposure. Some groups sponsored byother national governmentshave advised that children bediscouraged from using wirelessphones at all. For example, thegovernment in the UnitedKingdom distributed leafletscontaining such arecommendation in December2000. They noted that noevidence exists that using awireless phone causes braintumors or other ill effects.Their recommendation to limitwireless phone use by childrenwas strictly precautionary; itwas not based on scientific

99

For Your Safety

evidence that any healthhazard exists.11. What about wirelessphone interference withmedical equipment?

Radio Frequency (RF) energyfrom wireless phones caninteract with some electronicdevices. For this reason, theFDA helped develop a detailedtest method to measure ElectroMagnetic Interference (EMI) ofimplanted cardiac pacemakersand defibrillators from wirelesstelephones. This test method isnow part of a standardsponsored by the Associationfor the Advancement ofMedical Instrumentation(AAMI). The final draft, a jointeffort by the FDA, medicaldevice manufacturers, andmany other groups, wascompleted in late 2000. This

standard will allowmanufacturers to ensure thatcardiac pacemakers anddefibrillators are safe fromwireless phone EMI.The FDA has tested hearingaids for interference fromhandheld wireless phones andhelped develop a voluntarystandard sponsored by theInstitute of Electrical andElectronic Engineers (IEEE).This standard specifies testmethods and performancerequirements for hearing aidsand wireless phones so that nointerference occurs when aperson uses a “compatible”phone and a “compatible”hearing aid at the same time.This standard was approved bythe IEEE in 2000. The FDA continues to monitorthe use of wireless phones forpossible interactions with other

100

medical devices. Shouldharmful interference be foundto occur, the FDA will conducttesting to assess theinterference and work toresolve the problem.12.

10 Driver Safety TipsYour wireless phone gives youthe powerful ability tocommunicate by voice almostanywhere, anytime. Animportant responsibilityaccompanies the benefits ofwireless phones, one that everyuser must uphold.When operating a car, driving isyour first responsibility. Whenusing your wireless phonebehind the wheel of a car,practice good common senseand remember the followingtips:

101

For Your Safety

1. Get to know your wirelessphone and its features suchas speed dial and redial.Carefully read yourinstruction manual and learnto take advantage ofvaluable features mostphones offer, includingautomatic redial andmemory. Also, work tomemorize the phone keypadso you can use the speeddial function without takingyour attention off the road.

2. When available, use a hands-free device. A number ofhands-free wireless phoneaccessories are readilyavailable today. Whether youchoose an installed mounteddevice for your wireless phoneor a speaker phone accessory,take advantage of thesedevices if available to you.

3. Make sure you place yourwireless phone within easy reach and where you canreach it without removingyour eyes from the road. Ifyou get an incoming call atan inconvenient time, ifpossible, let your voicemailanswer it for you.

4. Suspend conversationsduring hazardous drivingconditions or situations. Letthe person you are speakingwith know you are driving; ifnecessary, suspend the callin heavy traffic or hazardousweather conditions. Rain,sleet, snow, and ice can behazardous, but so is heavytraffic. As a driver, your firstresponsibility is to payattention to the road.

102

5. Don’t take notes or look upphone numbers whiledriving. If you are reading anaddress book or businesscard, or writing a “to-do” listwhile driving a car, you arenot watching where you aregoing. It is common sense.Do not get caught in adangerous situation becauseyou are reading or writingand not paying attention tothe road or nearby vehicles.

6. Dial sensibly and assess thetraffic; if possible, place callswhen you are not moving orbefore pulling into traffic.Try to plan your calls beforeyou begin your trip orattempt to coincide yourcalls with times you may bestopped at a stop sign, redlight, or otherwisestationary. But if you need

to dial while driving, followthis simple tip -- dial only afew numbers, check the roadand your mirrors, thencontinue.

7.

Consumer Informationon SAR(Specific Absorption Rate)

This Model Phone Meets theGovernment’s Requirementsfor Exposure to Radio Waves.Your wireless phone is a radiotransmitter and receiver. It isdesigned and manufacturednot to exceed the emissionlimits for exposure toradiofrequency (RF) energy set

by the Federal CommunicationsCommission (FCC) of the U.S.Government. These FCCexposure limits are derivedfrom the recommendations oftwo expert organizations, theNational Counsel on RadiationProtection and Measurement(NCRP) and the Institute ofElectrical and ElectronicsEngineers (IEEE). In both cases,the recommendations weredeveloped by scientific andengineering experts drawn fromindustry, government, andacademia after extensivereviews of the scientificliterature related to thebiological effects of RF energy. The exposure Limit for wirelessmobile phones employs a unitof measurement known as theSpecific Absorption Rate, orSAR. The SAR is a measure ofthe rate of absorption of RF

105

For Your Safety

energy by the human bodyexpressed in units of watts perkilogram (W/kg). The FCCrequires wireless phones tocomply with a safety limit of1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6W/kg). The FCC exposure limitincorporates a substantialmargin of safety to giveadditional protection to thepublic and to account for anyvariations in measurements. Tests for SAR are conductedusing standard operatingpositions specified by the FCCwith the phone transmitting atits highest certified power levelin all tested frequency bands.Although SAR is determined atthe highest certified powerlevel, the actual SAR level ofthe phone while operating canbe well below the maximumvalue. Because the phone isdesigned to operate at multiple

power levels to use only thepower required to reach thenetwork, in general, the closeryou are to a wireless basestation antenna, the lower thepower output. Before a phone model isavailable for sale to the public,it must be tested and certifiedto the FCC that it does notexceed the limit established bythe government-adoptedrequirement for safe exposure.The tests are performed inpositions and locations (e.g., atthe ear and worn on the body)as required by the FCC foreach model. This device was tested fortypical body-worn operationswith the back of the phonekept 0.79 inches (2.0 cm)between the user’s body andthe back of the phone. Tocomply with FCC RF exposure

106

requirements, a minimumseparation distance of 0.79inches (2.0 cm) must bemaintained between the user sbody and the back of thephone. Third-party belt-clips,holsters, and similaraccessories containing metalliccomponents should not beused. Body-worn accessoriesthat cannot maintain 0.79inches (2.0 cm) separationdistance between the user'sbody and the back of thephone, and have not beentested for typical body-wornoperations may not complywith FCC RFexposure limits andshould be avoided. The FCC has granted anEquipment Authorization forthis model phone with allreported SAR levels evaluatedas in compliance with the FCCRF emission guidelines.

The highest SAR value for thismodel phone when tested foruse at the ear is 1.24 W/kgand when worn on the body, asdescribed in this user’s manual,is 0.7 W/kg. While there maybe differences between SARlevels of various phones and atvarious positions, they all meetthe government requirementfor safe exposure.SAR information on this modelphone is on file with the FCCand can be found under theDisplay Grant section ofhttp://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccidafter searching on FCC ID.To find information thatpertains to a particular modelphone, this site uses the phoneFCC ID number which is usuallyprinted somewhere on the caseof the phone. Sometimes itmay be necessary to removethe battery pack to find the

107

For Your Safety

108

number. Once you have theFCC ID number for a particularphone, follow the instructionson the website and it shouldprovide values for typical ormaximum SAR for a particularphone.Additional information onSpecific Absorption Rates(SAR) can be found on theCellular TelecommunicationsIndustry Association (CTIA)website at http://www.ctia.org/*In the United States andCanada, the SAR limit formobile phones used by thepublic is 1.6watts/kg (W/kg) averaged overone gram of tissue. Thestandard incorporates asubstantial margin of safety togive additional protection forthe public and to account forany variations inmeasurements.

FCC Hearing-AidCompatibility (HAC)Regulations forWireless Devices On July 10, 2003, the U.S.Federal CommunicationsCommission (FCC) Reportand Order in WT Docket 01-309 modified the exception ofwireless phones under theHearing Aid Compatibility Actof 1988 (HAC Act) to requiredigital wireless phones becompatible with hearing-aids.The intent of the HAC Act isto ensure reasonable accessto telecommunicationsservices for persons withhearing disabilities. While some wireless phonesare used near some hearingdevices (hearing aids andcochlear implants), users maydetect a buzzing, humming, orwhining noise. Some hearing

109

For Your Safety

devices are more immune thanothers to this interferencenoise, and phones also vary inthe amount of interferencethey generate.The wireless telephoneindustry has developed arating system for wirelessphones, to assist hearingdevice users find phones thatmay be compatible with theirhearing devices. Not allphones have been rated.Phones that are rated have therating on their box or a labellocated on the box.The ratings are notguarantees. Results will varydepending on the user’shearing device and hearingloss. If your hearing devicehappens to be vulnerable tointerference, you may not beable to use a rated phonesuccessfully. Trying out thephone with your hearing

device is the best way toevaluate it for your personalneeds.M-Ratings: Phones rated M3or M4 meet FCC requirementsand are likely to generate lessinterference to hearing devicesthan phones that are notlabeled. M4 is thebetter/higher of the tworatings.T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 orT4 meet FCC requirementsand are likely to generate lessinterference to hearing devicesthan phones that are notlabeled. T4 is thebetter/higher of the tworatings.Hearing devices may also berated. Your hearing devicemanufacturer or hearinghealth professional may helpyou find this rating. Higherratings mean that the hearing

device is relatively immune tointerference noise. Thehearing aid and wirelessphone rating values are thenadded together. A sum of 5 isconsidered acceptable fornormal use. A sum of 6 isconsidered for best use.In the above example, if ahearing aid meets the M2level rating and the wirelessphone meets the M3 levelrating, the sum of the twovalues equal M5. This issynonymous for T ratings.This should provide thehearing aid user with “normalusage” while using theirhearing aid with the particularwireless phone. “Normalusage” in this context isdefined as a signal quality thatis acceptable for normaloperation.

The M mark is intended to besynonymous with the U mark.The T mark is intended to besynonymous with the UTmark. The M and T marks arerecommended by the Alliancefor TelecommunicationsIndustries Solutions (ATIS).The U and UT marks arereferenced in Section 20.19 ofthe FCC Rules. The HACrating and measurementprocedure are described inthe American National

110

Standards Institute (ANSI)C63.19 standard.To enter that the Hearing AidCompatibility rating for yourphone is maintained,secondary transmitters such asBluetooth and WLAN

components must be disabledduring a call. See Page 52 forinstructions to disable thesecomponents.
