Use of theremaining TIA language isencouraged when appropriate.
Exposure to RadioFrequency SignalYour wireless handheld portabletelephone is a lowpower radiotransmitter and receiver. When itis ON, it receives and also sendsout radio frequency (RF) signals.In August, 1996, the FederalCommunications Commissions(FCC) adopted RF exposure
guidelines with safety levels forhandheld wireless phones. Thoseguidelines are consistent with thesafety standards previously setby both U.S. and internationalstandards bodies:ANSI C95.1 (1992) *NCRP Report 86 (1986)ICNIRP (1996)Those standards were based oncomprehensive and periodicevaluations of the relevantscientific literature. For example,over 120 scientists, engineers,and physicians from universities,government health agencies, andindustry reviewed the availablebody of research to develop theANSI Standard (C95.1).* American National StandardsInstitute; National Council onRadiation Protection andMeasurements; International
Commission on Non-IonizingRadiation ProtectionThe design of your phonecomplies with the FCC guidelines(and those standards).
Antenna CareUse only the supplied or anapproved replacement antenna.Unauthorized antennas,modifications, or attachmentscould damage the phone andmay violate FCC regulations.
Phone OperationNORMAL POSITION: Hold thephone as you would any othertelephone with the antennapointed up and over yourshoulder.
Tips on Efficient OperationFor your phone to operate mostefficiently:
l Do not touch the antennaunnecessarily when the phoneis in use. Contact with theantenna affects call qualityand may cause the phone tooperate at a higher powerlevel than otherwise needed.
DrivingCheck the laws and regulationson the use of wireless phones inthe areas where you drive. Alwaysobey them. Also, if using yourphone while driving, please: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 answering acall if driving conditions sorequire.

FDA Consumer UpdateThe U.S. Food and DrugAdministration Center forDevices and Radiological HealthConsumer Update on MobilePhones.
1. Do wireless phones pose ahealth hazard?
The available scientific evidencedoes not show that any healthproblems are associated withusing wireless phones. There isno proof, however, that wirelessphones are absolutely safe.Wireless phones emit low levelsof radiofrequency energy (RF) inthe microwave range while beingused. They also emit very lowlevels of RF when in the Homescreen. Whereas high levels of RF
can produce health effects (byheating tissue), exposure to lowlevel RF that does not produceheating effects causes no knownadverse health effects. Manystudies of low level RF exposureshave not found any biologicaleffects. Some studies havesuggested that some biologicaleffects may occur, but suchfindings have not been confirmedby additional research. In somecases, other researchers have haddifficulty in reproducing thosestudies, or in determining thereasons for inconsistent results.
2. What is the FDA’s roleconcerning the safety of wirelessphones?
Under the law, the FDA does notreview the safety of radiation-emitting consumer products suchas wireless phones before theycan be sold, as it does with new
88
Safety Guidelines
drugs or medical devices.However, the agency hasauthority to take action ifwireless phones are shown toemit radiofrequency energy (RF)at a level that is hazardous to theuser. In such a case, the FDAcould require the manufacturersof wireless phones to notify usersof the health hazard and torepair, replace, or recall thephones so that the hazard nolonger exists.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 intopossible biological effects ofRF of the type emitted bywireless phones;
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 of thefederal agencies that haveresponsibility for differentaspects of RF safety to ensurecoordinated efforts at the federallevel. The following agenciesbelong to this working group:
89
l National Institute forOccupational Safety andHealth
l Environmental ProtectionAgency
l Occupational Safety andHealth Administration(Administración de laseguridad y salud laborales)
l Occupational Safety andHealth Administration
l National Telecommunicationsand Information Administration
The National Institutes of Healthparticipates in some interagencyworking group activities, as well.The FDA shares regulatoryresponsibilities for wirelessphones with the FederalCommunications Commission(FCC). All phones that are soldin the United States must comply
with FCC safety guidelines thatlimit RF exposure. The FCC relieson the FDA and other healthagencies for safety questionsabout wireless phones.The FCC also regulates the basestations that the wireless phonenetworks rely upon. While thesebase stations operate at higherpower than do the wirelessphones themselves, the RFexposures that people get fromthese base stations are typicallythousands of times lower thanthose they can get from wirelessphones. Base stations are thusnot the subject of the safetyquestions discussed in thisdocument.
3. What kinds of phones are thesubject of this update?
The term ‘wireless phone’ refershere to handheld wireless phones
90
Safety Guidelines
with built-in antennas, oftencalled ‘cell’, ‘mobile’, or ‘PCS’phones. These types of wirelessphones can expose the user tomeasurable radiofrequencyenergy (RF) because of the shortdistance between the phone andthe user’s head. These RFexposures are limited by FCCsafety guidelines that weredeveloped with the advice of theFDA and other federal health andsafety agencies. When the phoneis located at greater distancesfrom the user, the exposure to RFis drastically lower because aperson’s RF exposure decreasesrapidly with increasing distancefrom the source. The so-called‘cordless phones,’ which have abase unit connected to thetelephone wiring in a house,typically operate at far lowerpower levels, and thus produceRF exposures far below the FCC
safety limits.
4. What are the results of theresearch done already?
The research done thus far hasproduced conflicting results, andmany studies have suffered fromflaws in their research methods.Animal experiments investigatingthe effects of radiofrequencyenergy (RF) exposurescharacteristic of wireless phoneshave yielded conflicting resultsthat often cannot be repeated inother laboratories. A few animalstudies, however, have suggestedthat low levels of RF couldaccelerate the development ofcancer in laboratory animals.However, many of the studiesthat showed increased tumordevelopment used animals thathad been genetically engineeredor treated with cancer causingchemicals so as to be pre-
91
92
disposed to develop cancer inthe absence of RF exposure.Other studies exposed theanimals to RF for up to 22 hoursper day. These conditions arenot similar to the conditionsunder which people use wirelessphones, so we don’t know withcertainty what the results of suchstudies mean for human health.Three large epidemiology studieshave been published sinceDecember 2000. Between them,the studies investigated anypossible association between theuse of wireless phones andprimary brain cancer, glioma,meningioma, or acousticneuroma, tumors of the brain orsalivary gland, leukemia, or othercancers. None of the studiesdemonstrated the existence ofany harmful health effects fromwireless phone RF exposures.However, none of the studies can
answer questions about long-term exposures, since the averageperiod of phone use in thesestudies was around three years.
5. What research is needed todecide whether RF exposurefrom wireless phones poses ahealth risk?
Acombination of laboratorystudies and epidemiologicalstudies of people actually usingwireless phones would providesome of the data that areneeded. Lifetime animal exposurestudies could be completed in afew years. However, very largenumbers of animals would beneeded to provide reliable proofof a cancer promoting effect ifone exists. Epidemiologicalstudies can provide data that isdirectly applicable to humanpopulations, but 10 or moreyears follow-up may be needed
Safety Guidelines
to provide answers about somehealth effects, such as cancer.This is because the intervalbetween the time of exposure toa cancer-causing agent and thetime tumors develop - if they do-may be many, many years. Theinterpretation of epidemiologicalstudies is hampered bydifficulties in measuring actual RFexposure during day-to-day useof wireless phones. Many factorsaffect this measurement, such asthe angle at which the phone isheld, or which model of phone isused.
6. What is the FDA doing to findout more about the possiblehealth effects of wireless phoneRF?
The FDA is working with the U.S.National Toxicology Program andwith groups of investigatorsaround the world to ensure that
high priority animal studies areconducted to address importantquestions about the effects ofexposure to radiofrequencyenergy (RF). The FDA has been aleading participant in the WorldHealth Organization InternationalElectromagnetic Fields (EMF)Project since its inception in1996. An influential result of thiswork has been the developmentof a detailed agenda of researchneeds that has driven theestablishment of new researchprograms around the world. Theproject has also helped develop aseries of public informationdocuments on EMF issues. TheFDA and the CellularTelecommunications & InternetAssociation (CTIA) have a formalCooperative Research andDevelopment Agreement(CRADA) to do research onwireless phone safety. The FDA
93
provides the scientific oversight,obtaining input from experts ingovernment, industry, andacademic organizations. CTIA-funded research is conductedthrough contracts withindependent investigators. Theinitial research will include bothlaboratory studies and studies ofwireless phone users. TheCRADA will also include a broadassessment of additional researchneeds in the context of the latestresearch developments aroundthe world.
7. How can I find out how muchradio frequency energyexposure I can get by using mywireless phone?
All phones sold in the UnitedStates must comply with FederalCommunications Commission(FCC) guidelines that limit radiofrequency energy (RF) exposures.
The FCC established theseguidelines in consultation withthe FDA and the other federalhealth and safety agencies. TheFCC limit for RF exposure fromwireless telephones is set at aSpecific Absorption Rate (SAR)of 1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6W/kg). The FCC limit isconsistent with the safetystandards developed by theInstitute of Electrical andElectronic Engineering (IEEE) andthe National Council onRadiation Protection andMeasurement. The exposure limittakes into consideration thebody’s ability to remove heatfrom the tissues that absorbenergy from the wireless phoneand is set well below levels knownto have effects. Manufacturers ofwireless phones must report theRF exposure level for each modelof phone to the FCC. The FCC
94
Safety Guidelines
website(http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety) gives directions for locating theFCC identification number onyour phone so you can find yourphone’s RF exposure level in theonline 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 energy (RF) exposurefrom wireless phones and otherwireless handsets with theparticipation and leadership ofFDA scientists and engineers.The standard, ‘RecommendedPractice for Determining theSpatial- Peak Specific AbsorptionRate (SAR) in the Human Body
Due to Wireless CommunicationsDevices: ExperimentalTechniques,’ sets forth the firstconsistent test methodology formeasuring the rate at which RF isdeposited in the heads ofwireless phone users. The testmethod uses a tissuesimulatingmodel of the human head.Standardized SAR testmethodology is expected togreatly improve the consistencyof measurements made atdifferent laboratories on thesame phone. SAR is themeasurement of the amount ofenergy absorbed in tissue, eitherby the whole body or a smallpart of the body. It is measuredin watts/kg (or milliwatts/g) ofmatter. This measurement is usedto determine whether a wirelessphone complies with safetyguidelines.
95
9. What steps can I take toreduce my exposure toradiofrequency energy from mywireless phone?
If there is a risk from theseproducts - and at this point wedo not know that there is - it isprobably very small. But if youare concerned about avoidingeven potential risks, you can takea few simple steps to minimizeyour exposure to radiofrequencyenergy (RF). Since time is a keyfactor in how much exposure aperson receives, reducing theamount of time spent using awireless phone will reduce RFexposure. If you must conductextended conversations bywireless phone every day, youcould place more distancebetween your body and thesource of the RF, since theexposure level drops off
dramatically with distance. Forexample, you could use aheadset and carry the wirelessphone away from your body oruse a wireless phone connectedto a remote antenna. Again, thescientific data do notdemonstrate that wirelessphones are harmful. But if youare concerned about the RFexposure from these products,you can use measures like thosedescribed above to reduce yourRF exposure from wireless phoneuse.
10. What about children usingwireless phones?
The scientific evidence does notshow a danger to users ofwireless phones, includingchildren and teenagers. If youwant to take steps to lowerexposure to radiofrequencyenergy (RF), the measures
96
Safety Guidelines
described above would apply tochildren and teenagers usingwireless phones. Reducing thetime of wireless phone use andincreasing the distance betweenthe user and the RF source willreduce RF exposure. Somegroups sponsored by othernational governments haveadvised 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. Theirrecommendation to limit wirelessphone use by children wasstrictly precautionary; it was notbased on scientific evidence thatany health hazard exists.
11. What about wireless phoneinterference with medicalequipment?
Radio frequency energy (RF)from wireless phones can interactwith some electronic devices. Forthis reason, the FDA helpeddevelop a detailed test methodto measure electromagneticinterference (EMI) of implantedcardiac pacemakers anddefibrillators from wirelesstelephones. This test method isnow part of a standardsponsored by the Association forthe Advancement of Medicalinstrumentation (AAMI). Thefinal draft, a joint effort by theFDA, medical devicemanufacturers, and many othergroups, was completed in late2000. This standard will allowmanufacturers to ensure thatcardiac pacemakers and
97
defibrillators are safe fromwireless phone EMI. The FDA hastested hearing aids forinterference from handheldwireless phones and helpeddevelop a voluntary standardsponsored by the Institute ofElectrical and ElectronicEngineers (IEEE). This standardspecifies test methods andperformance requirements forhearing aids and wireless phonesso that no interference occurswhen a person uses a‘compatible’ phone and a‘compatible’ hearing aid at thesame time. This standard wasapproved by the IEEE in 2000.The FDA continues to monitorthe use of wireless phones forpossible interactions with othermedical devices. Should harmfulinterference be found to occur,the FDA will conduct testing toassess the interference and work
to resolve the problem.

10 Driver Safety TipsYour wireless phone gives youthe powerful ability tocommunicate by voice almostanywhere, anytime. An importantresponsibility accompanies thebenefits of wireless phones, onethat every user must uphold.When operating a car, driving isyour first responsibility.When using your wireless phonebehind the wheel of a car,practice good common senseand remember the following tips:
1. Get to know your wirelessphone and its features such asspeed dial and redial. Carefullyread your instruction manualand learn to take advantage ofvaluable features most phonesoffer, including automaticredial and memory. Also, work
99
to memorize the phonekeypad so you can use thespeed dial function withouttaking your attention off theroad.
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. Position your wireless phonewithin easy reach. Make sureyou place your wireless phonewithin easy reach and whereyou can reach it withoutremoving your eyes from theroad. If you get an incomingcall at an inconvenient time, if
possible, let your voicemailanswer it for you.
4. Suspend conversations duringhazardous driving conditionsor situations. Let the personyou are speaking with knowyou are driving; if necessary,suspend the call in heavytraffic or hazardous weatherconditions. Rain, sleet, snowand ice can be hazardous, butso is heavy traffic. As a driver,your first responsibility is topay attention to the road.
5. Do not take notes or look upphone numbers while driving.If you are reading an AddressBook or business card, orwriting a “to-do” list whiledriving a car, you are notwatching where you are going.It is common sense. Don’t getcaught in a dangerous
100
Safety Guidelines
situation because you arereading or writing and notpaying attention to the roador nearby vehicles.
6. Dial sensibly and assess thetraffic; if possible, place callswhen you are not moving orbefore pulling into traffic. Tryto plan your calls before youbegin your trip or attempt tocoincide your calls with timesyou may be stopped at a stopsign, red light or otherwisestationary. But if you need todial while driving, follow thissimple tip— dial only a fewnumbers, check the road andyour mirrors, then continue.
7. Do not engage in stressful oremotional conversations thatmay be distracting. Stressfulor emotional conversations
and driving do not mix; theyare distracting and evendangerous when you arebehind the wheel of a car.Make people you are talkingwith aware you are driving andif necessary, suspendconversations which have thepotential to divert yourattention from the road.
8. Use your wireless phone tocall for help. Your wirelessphone is one of the greatesttools you can own to protectyourself and your family indangerous situations — withyour phone at your side, helpis only three numbers away.Dial 911 or other localemergency number in thecase of fire, traffic accident,road hazard or medicalemergency. Remember, it is a
101
free call on your wirelessphone!
9. Use your wireless phone tohelp others in emergencies.Your wireless phone providesyou a perfect opportunity tobe a “Good Samaritan” inyour community. If you see anauto accident, crime inprogress or other seriousemergency where lives are indanger, call 911 or other localemergency number, as youwould want others to do foryou.
10. Call roadside assistance or aspecial wireless non-emergency assistance numberwhen necessary. Certainsituations you encounter whiledriving may require attention,but are not urgent enough to
merit a call for emergencyservices. But you can still useyour wireless phone to lend ahand. If you see a broken-down vehicle posing noserious hazard, a broken trafficsignal, a minor traffic accidentwhere no one appears injuredor a vehicle. You know to bestolen, call roadside assistanceor other special non-emergency wireless number.

Safety Guidelines
Consumer Information onSAR (Specific AbsorptionRate)This Model Phone Meets theGovernment’s Requirements forExposure to Radio Waves.Your wireless phone is a radiotransmitter and receiver. It isdesigned and manufactured notto exceed the emission limits forexposure to radio frequency (RF)energy set by the FederalCommunications Commission(FCC) of the U.S. Government.These limits are part ofcomprehensive guidelines andestablish permitted levels of RFenergy for the generalpopulation. The guidelines arebased on standards that weredeveloped by independentscientific organizations throughperiodic and thorough evaluationof scientific studies. The
standards include a substantialsafety margin designed to assurethe safety of all persons,regardless of age and health.The exposure standard forwireless mobile phones employsa unit of measurement known asthe Specific Absorption Rate, orSAR. The SAR limit set by theFCC is 1.6W/kg.* Tests for SAR are conductedusing standard operatingpositions specified by the FCCwith the phone transmitting at itshighest certified power level in alltested frequency bands.Although SAR is determined atthe highest certified power level,the actual SAR level of the phonewhile operating can be well belowthe maximum value. Because thephone is designed to operate atmultiple power levels to use onlythe power required to reach the
103
network, in general, the closeryou are to a wireless base stationantenna, the lower the poweroutput.Before a phone model is availablefor sale to the public, it must betested and certified to the FCCthat it does not exceed the limitestablished by the government-adopted requirement for safeexposure. The tests areperformed in positions andlocations (e.g., at the ear andworn on the body) as requiredby the FCC for each model. Thehighest SAR value for LG Arenaphone when tested for use at theear is 0.97 W/kg and when wornon the body, as described in thisuser’s manual, is 0.53 W/kg.(Body-worn measurements differamong phones models,depending upon availableaccessories and FCC
requirements.) While there maybe differences between SARlevels of various phones and atvarious positions, they all meetthe government requirement forsafe exposure.The FCC has granted anEquipment Authorization for thismodel phone with all reportedSAR levels evaluated as incompliance with the FCC RFemission guidelines. SARinformation on this model phoneis on file with the FCC and canbe found under the DisplayGrant section ofhttp://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccidafter searching on FCC IDBEJC500G.
104
Safety Guidelines
Additional information onSpecific Absorption Rates (SAR)can be found on the CellularTelecommunications IndustryAssociation (CTIA) website athttp://www.ctia.org* In the United States andCanada, the SAR limit for mobilephones used by the public is 1.6watts/kg (W/kg) averaged overone gram of tissue. The standardincorporates a substantial marginof safety to give additionalprotection for the public and toaccount for any variations inmeasurements.
Hearing Aid Compatibility(HAC) with Mobile PhonesWhen some mobile phones areused near some hearing devices(hearing aids and cochlearimplants),users may detect abuzzing, humming, or whiningnoise. Some hearing devices aremore immune than others to thisinterference noise, and phonesalso vary in the amount ofinterference they generate. Thewireless telephone industry hasdeveloped ratings for some oftheir mobile phones, to assisthearing device users in findingphones that may be compatiblewith their hearing devices. Not allphones have been rated. Phonesthat are rated have the rating ontheir box or a label on the box.The ratings are not guarantees.Results will vary depending onthe user’s hearing device and
105
hearing loss. If your hearingdevice happens to be vulnerableto interference, you may not beable to use a rated phonesuccessfully. Trying out thephone with your hearing deviceis the best way to evaluate it foryour personal needs.M-Ratings: Phones rated M3 orM4 meet FCC requirements andare likely to generate lessinterference to hearing devicesthan phones that are not labeled.M4 is the better/higher of thetwo ratings.T-Ratings: Phones rated T3 orT4 meet FCC requirements andare likely to be more usable witha hearing device’s telecoil (“TSwitch” or “Telephone Switch”)than unrated phones. T4 is thebetter/higher of the two ratings.(Note that not all hearing deviceshave telecoils in them.)
Hearing devices may also bemeasured for immunity to thistype of interference. Your hearingdevice manufacturer or hearinghealth professional may help youfind results for your hearingdevice. The more immune yourhearing aid is, the less likely youare to experience interferencenoise from mobile phones.To ensure that the Hearing AidCompatibility rating for yourphone is maintained, secondarytransmitters such as Bluetooth®components must be disabledduring a call.
