Health and safety information
Exposure to radio frequency (RF)
signals
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 (FCC) 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 the
safety standards that were developed by
independent scientific organizations through
periodic and through evaluation of scientific
studies.
The standards include a substantial safety
margin designed to assure the safety of all
persons, regardless of age and health.
C406.book Page 71 Wednesday, August 23, 2006 10:16 AM
1. In the U.S. 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
substantial margin of safety to give additional protection
for the public and to account for any variations in
measurements.
In general, the closer you are to a wireless base
station antenna, the lower the power output of
the phone. Before a new model phone 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 governmentadopted 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. While there
may be differences between the SAR levels of
various phones and at various positions, they
all meet the government requirement.
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 printed in the label
on the phone.
Health and safety information
The exposure standard for wireless phones
employs a unit of measurement known as
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). The SAR limit
set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg1.
SAR tests are conducted using standard
operating positions specified 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.

Precautions when using batteries
•
•
•
Never use any charger or battery that is
damaged in any way.
Use the battery only for its intended
purpose.
If you use the phone near the network’s
base station, it uses less power; talk and
standby time are greatly affected by the
signal strength on the cellular network and
the parameters set by the network operator.
C406.book Page 73 Wednesday, August 23, 2006 10:16 AM
•
•
•
•
•
Do not leave the battery in hot or cold
places, such as in a car in summer or winter
conditions, as you will reduce the capacity
and lifetime of the battery. Always try to
keep the battery at room temperature. A
phone with a hot or cold battery may
temporarily not work, even when the
battery is fully charged. Li-ion batteries are
particularly affected by temperatures below
0° C (32° F).
Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental
short-circuiting can occur when a metallic
object (coin, clip or pen) causes a direct
connection between the + and -. terminals
of the battery (metal strips on the battery),
for example when you carry a spare battery
in a pocket or bag. Short-circuiting the
terminals may damage the battery or the
object causing the short-circuiting.
Health and safety information
•
Battery charging time depends on the
remaining battery charge and the type of
battery and charger used. The battery can
be charged and discharged hundreds of
times, but it will gradually wear out. When
the operation time (talk time and standby
time) is noticeably shorter than normal, it is
time to buy a new battery.
If left unused, a fully charged battery will
discharge itself over time.
Use only Samsung-approved batteries and
recharge your battery only with Samsungapproved chargers. When a charger is not in
use, disconnect it from the power source.
Do not leave the battery connected to a
charger for more than a week, since
overcharging may shorten its life.
Extreme temperatures will affect the
charging capacity of your battery: it may
require cooling or warming first.

dispose of batteries in a fire.
Road safety
Your wireless phone gives you the powerful
ability to communicate by voice, almost
anywhere, anytime. But an important
responsibility accompanies the benefits of
wireless phones, one that every user must
uphold.
When driving a car, driving is your first
responsibility. When using your wireless phone
behind the wheel of a car, practice good
common sense and remember the following
tips.
1. Get to know your wireless phone and its
features, such as speed dial and redial. If
available, these features help you to place
your call without taking your attention off
the road.
74
2. When available, use a hands-free device. If
possible, add an extra layer of convenience
and safety to your wireless phone with one
of the many hands-free accessories
available today.
3. Position your wireless phone within easy
reach. Be able to access your wireless phone
without removing your eyes from the road.
If you get an incoming call at an
inconvenient time, let your voicemail answer
it for you.
4. Let the person you are speaking with know
you are driving; if necessary, suspend the
call in heavy traffic or hazardous weather
conditions. Rain, sleet, snow, ice and even
heavy traffic can be hazardous.
5. Do not take notes or look up phone numbers
while driving. Jotting down a To Do list or
flipping through your phonebook takes your
attention away from your primary
responsibility, driving safely.
C406.book Page 75 Wednesday, August 23, 2006 10:16 AM
9. Use your wireless phone to help others in
emergencies. If you see a car accident,
crime in progress or other serious
emergency where lives are in danger, call
the emergency number, as you would want
others to do for you.
10.Call roadside assistance or a special
nonemergency wireless assistance number
when necessary. 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 any other special nonemergency wireless
number.
Health and safety information
6. Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if
possible, place calls when you are not
moving or before pulling into traffic. Try to
plan calls when your car will be stationary. If
you need to make a call while moving, dial
only a few numbers, check the road and
your mirrors, then continue.
7. Do not engage in stressful or emotional
conversations that may be distracting. Make
the people with whom you are talking aware
that you are driving and suspend
conversations that have the potential to
divert your attention from the road.
8. Use your wireless phone to call for help. Dial
the emergency number in the case of fire,
traffic accident or medical emergencies.
Remember, it is a free call on your wireless
phone!

Operating environment
Electronic devices
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.
When connecting the phone or any accessory to
another device, read its user’s guide for
detailed safety instructions. Do not connect
incompatible products.
As with other mobile radio transmitting
equipment, users are advised that for the
satisfactory operation of the equipment and for
the safety of personnel, it is recommended that
the equipment should only be used in the
normal operating position (held to your ear with
the antenna pointing over your shoulder).
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. Consult the manufacturer to
discuss alternatives.
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a
minimum distance of 15 cm (6 inches) be
maintained between a wireless phone and a
pacemaker to avoid potential interference with
the pacemaker. These recommendations are
consistent with the independent research and
recommendations of Wireless Technology
Research.
C406.book Page 77 Wednesday, August 23, 2006 10:16 AM
Hearing aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with
some hearing aids. In the event of such
interference, you may wish to consult your
hearing aid manufacturer to discuss
alternatives. Other Medical Devices If you use
any other personal medical devices, consult the
manufacturer of your device to determine if it is
adequately shielded from external RF energy.
Your physician may be able to assist you in
obtaining this information. 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.
Health and safety information
Persons with pacemakers:
• Should always keep the phone more than 15
cm (6 inches) 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 potential interference
If you have any reason to suspect that
interference is taking place, switch off your
phone immediately.
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.

Health and safety information
Posted facilities
Switch off your phone in any facility where
posted notices require you to do so.
Potentially explosive environments
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 while 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.
78
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.
Emergency calls
This phone, like any wireless phone, operates
using radio signals, wireless and landline
networks, as well as user-programmed
functions, which cannot guarantee connection
in all conditions. Therefore, you should never
rely solely on any wireless phone for essential
communications (medical emergencies, for
example).
C406.book Page 79 Wednesday, August 23, 2006 10:16 AM
When making an emergency call, remember to
give all the necessary information as accurately
as possible. Remember that your phone may be
the only means of communication at the scene
of an accident; do not end the call until given
permission to do so.
1. If the phone is not on, switch it on.
2. Key in the emergency number for your
present location (for example, 112 or any
other official emergency number).
Emergency numbers vary by location.
3. Press [ ].
If certain features are in use (call barring, for
example), you may first need to deactivate
those features before you can make an
emergency call. Consult this document and
your local cellular service provider.

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 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 safety
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 (SAR). The SAR
limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg. SAR Tests 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 new model phone is available for sale

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 seat belts
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

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. 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.
88
3. 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
voicemail answer it for you.
4. Suspend conversations during hazardous
driving conditions or situations. Let the
person you are speaking with know you are
driving; if necessary, suspend the 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.
C406.book Page 89 Wednesday, August 23, 2006 10:16 AM
7. 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.
8. 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!
Health and safety information
5. 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.
6. 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. 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.

1. What kinds of phones are the subject of this
update?
The term wireless phone refers here to handheld wireless phones with built-in antennas,
often called cell, mobile, or PCS phones. These
types of wireless phones can expose the user to
measurable radio frequency 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
well within the FCC’s compliance limits.
2. 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 radio
frequency 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.
3. 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
radio frequency 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.
92
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:
C406.book Page 93 Wednesday, August 23, 2006 10:16 AM
•
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 primary subject
of the safety questions discussed in this
document.
4. 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 radio frequency energy (RF).

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.

Health and safety information
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
94
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.
5. 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
C406.book Page 95 Wednesday, August 23, 2006 10:16 AM
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.
95
Phone
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.
7. Do hands-free kits for wireless phones
reduce risks from exposure to RF emissions?
Since there are no known risks from exposure
to RF emissions from wireless phones, there is
no reason to believe that hands-free kits reduce
Health and safety information
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.
6. 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 measures described above would apply to
children and teenagers using wireless phones.
Reducing the time of wireless phone use and
C406.book Page 96 Wednesday, August 23, 2006 10:16 AM
Health and safety information
risks. Hands-free kits can be used with wireless
phones for convenience and comfort. These
systems reduce the absorption of RF energy in
the head because the phone, which is the
source of the RF emissions, will not be placed
against the head. On the other hand, if the
phone is mounted against the waist or other
part of the body during use, then that part of
the body will absorb more RF energy. Wireless
phones marketed in the U.S. are required to
meet safety requirements regardless of
whether they are used against the head or
against the body. Either configuration should
result in compliance with the safety limit.
8. Do wireless phone accessories that claim to
shield the head from RF radiation work?
Since there are no known risks from exposure
to RF emissions from wireless phones, there is
no reason to believe that accessories that claim
to shield the head from those emissions reduce
risks. Some products that claim to shield the
96
user from RF absorption use special phone
cases, while others involve nothing more than a
metallic accessory attached to the phone.
Studies have shown that these products
generally do not work as advertised. Unlike
“hand-free” kits, these so-called “shields” may
interfere with proper operation of the phone.
The phone may be forced to boost its power to
compensate, leading to an increase in RF
absorption. In February 2002, the Federal trade
Commission (FTC) charged two companies that
sold devices that claimed to protect wireless
phone users from radiation with making false
and unsubstantiated claims. According to FTC,
these defendants lacked a reasonable basis to
substantiate their claim.
9. 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
C406.book Page 97 Wednesday, August 23, 2006 10:16 AM
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.
10.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
radio frequency 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
Health and safety information

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 compatible hearing aid at the same time.

C406.book Page 98 Wednesday, August 23, 2006 10:16 AM
Health and safety information
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, gioma, meningioma,
or acoustic neuroma, tumors of the brain or
salivary gland, leukemia, or other cancers.
None of the studies demonstrated the existence
98
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.
11.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.

responsibilities related to potential RF health
effects?

exposures from various sources can be
