    What has FDA done to measure the radio 
    frequency energy coming from wireless 
    phones?
    The Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) is 
    developing a technical standard for measuring the radio 
    frequency energy (RF) exposure from wireless phones and 
    other wireless hand sets 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.

    What steps can I take to reduce my exposure to 
    radio frequency 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 
    radio frequency 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 does not demonstrate that wireless 
    phones are harmful. But if you are concerned about RF 
    exposure from these products, you can use measures like 
    those described above to reduce your RF exposure from 
    wireless phone use.
    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 radio frequency 
    energy (RF), the measured 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 
    e715.book  Page 138  Thursday, October 2, 2003  7:53 PM 
    						
    							Health and Safety Information 
    139
    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.
    What about wireless phone interference with 
    medical equipment?
    Radio frequency 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 on 
    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 “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 problem.

    CTIA Safety Information
    Exposure to radio frequency signals
    Your wireless hand held 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 
    hand-held wireless phones. Those guidelines are consistent 
    with the safety standards previously set by both U.S. and 
    international standard bodies:
     OANSI C95.1 (1992) ONCRP Report 86 (1986) OICNIRP (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 (C95.1).
    The design of your phone complies with the FCC guidelines 
    (and those standards).

    Driving
    Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless 
    telephones in the areas where you drive. Always obey them. 
    Also, if using your phone while driving, please:
     OGive full attention to driving--driving safety is your  first responsibility. OUse hands-free operation, if available. OPull off the road and park before making or answering a call if 
    driving conditions so require.
    Electronic devices
    Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF 
    signals. However, certain electronic equipment may not be 
    shielded against RF signals from your wireless phone.
    Pacemakers
    The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends 
    that a minimum separation of six (6”) inches 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: OShould ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches from their 
    pacemaker when the pacemaker is turned on;
     OShould not carry the phone in a breast pocket; OShould use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the 
    potential for interference.
     OIf you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking 
    place, turn your phone OFF 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 (or call the customer 
    service line to discuss alternatives.) Optional for each phone 
    manufacturer.

    Other medical devices
    If you use any other personal medical device, consult the 
    manufacturer of your device to determine if they are 
    adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician 
    may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.
    Turn your phone OFF in health care facilities when any 
    regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so. 
    Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment 
    that could be sensitive to external RF energy.
    Vehicles
    RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately 
    shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles. Check with 
    the manufacturer or its representative regarding your 
    vehicle. You should also consult the manufacturer of any 
    equipment that has been added to your vehicle.
    Posted facilities
    Turn your phone OFF in any facility where posted notices so 
    require.
    Aircraft
    FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while in the air. 
    Switch OFF your phone before boarding an aircraft.
    Blasting areas
    To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your 
    phone OFF when in a “blasting area” or in areas posted: 
    “Turn off two-way radio”. Obey all signs and instructions.
    Potentially explosive atmospheres
    Turn your phone OFF 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 of even death.

    Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often but 
    not always clearly marked. They include fueling areas such 
    as gasoline stations; below deck on boats; fuel or chemical 
    transfer or storage facilities; vehicles using liguefied 
    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.
    For vehicles equipped with an airbag
    An airbag inflates with great force. DO NOT place objects, 
    including both installed or portable wireless equipment, in 
    the area over the air bag deployment area. If in-vehicle 
    wireless equipment is improperly installed and the air bag 
    inflates, serious injury could result.
