Avoid Potential Hearing Loss
Prolonged exposure to loud sounds (including music)
is the most common cause of preventable hearing
loss. Some scientific research suggests that using
portable audio devices, such as portable music players,
at high volume settings for long durations may lead to
permanent noise-induced hearing loss. This includes the

use of headphones (including headsets, earbuds and
Bluetooth® or other wireless devices). Exposure to very
loud sound has also been associated in some studies
with tinnitus (a ringing in the ear), hypersensitivity to
sound and distorted hearing. Individual susceptibility to
noise-induced hearing loss and other potential hearing
problems varies. The amount of sound produced by a
portable audio device varies depending on the nature
of the sounds, the device, the device setting and the
headphones. You should follow some commonsense
recommendations when using any portable audio device:

devices. The FDA issued a website publication on
health issues related to cell device usage where it
states, “The scientific community at large believes that
the weight of scientific evidence does not show an
association between exposure to radiofrequency (RF)
from cell devices and adverse health outcomes. Still
the scientific community does recommend conducting
additional research to address gaps in knowledge. That
research is being conducted around the world and
FDA continues to monitor developments in this field.
You can access the joint FDA/FCC website at http://
Cell Devices > Research). You can also contact the
FDA toll-free at (888) 463-6332 or (888) INFO-FDA.
In June 2000, the FDA entered into a cooperative
research and development agreement through which
additional scientific research is being conducted.
The FCC issued its own website publication stating
that “there is no scientific evidence that proves that
wireless device usage can lead to cancer or a variety
of other problems, including headaches, dizziness or
memory loss”. This publication is available at http://
www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety or through the FCC at (888)
225-5322 or (888) CALL-FCC.
Vehicle-Mounted External Antenna
(Optional, if available.)
To satisfy FCC RF exposure requirements, keep
8 inches (20 cm) between the user / bystander
and vehicle-mounted external antenna. For more
information about RF exposure, visit the FCC website
Caution
Use only the supplied antenna. Use of unauthorized
antennas (or modifications to the antenna) could
impair RF quality, damage the device, void your
warranty and/or violate FCC regulations. Don’t use the
device with a damaged antenna. A damaged antenna
could cause a minor skin burn. Contact your local
dealer for a replacement antenna.
Consumer Information About Radio Frequency
Emissions
Your wireless device, which contains a radio transmitter
and receiver, emits radio frequency energy during
use. The following consumer information addresses
commonly asked questions about the health effects of
wireless devices.
What does “SAR” mean?
In 1996, the FCC, working with the FDA, the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency, and other agencies,
established RF exposure safety guidelines for wireless
devices in the United States. Before a wireless device
model is available for sale to the public, it must be
tested by the manufacturer and certified to the FCC
that it does not exceed limits established by the
FCC. One of these limits is expressed as a Specific
Absorption Rate, or “SAR.” SAR is a measure of the
Are wireless devices safe?
Scientific research on the subject of wireless
devices and radio frequency (“RF”) energy has been
conducted worldwide for many years, and continues. In
the United States, the Food and Drug Administration
(“FDA”) and the Federal Communications Commission
(“FCC”) set policies and procedures for wireless
11

rate of absorption of RF energy in the body. Tests for
SAR are conducted with the device transmitting at
its highest power level in all tested frequency bands.
Since 1996, the FCC has required that the SAR of
handheld wireless devices not exceed 1.6 watts per
kilogram, averaged over one gram of tissue. Although
the SAR is determined at the highest power level,
the actual SAR value of a wireless device while
operating can be less than the reported SAR value.
This is because the SAR value may vary from call
to call, depending on factors such as proximity to a
cell site, the proximity of the device to the body while
in use, and the use of hands-free devices. Before
a device model is available for sale to the public, it
must be tested and certified to the FCC that it does
not exceed the limit established by the government-
adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are
performed in positions and locations (e.g., at the ear
and worn on the body) as required by the FCC for
each model.

the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association
cfm/AID/10371. You may also wish to contact the
manufacturer of your device.
Can I minimize my RF exposure?
If you are concerned about RF, there are several
simple steps you can take to minimize your RF
exposure. You can, of course, reduce your use time.
You can place more distance between your body and
the source of the RF, as the exposure level drops
off dramatically with distance. The FDA/FCC website
states that “hands-free kits can be used with wireless
devices for convenience and comfort. On the other
hand, if the device 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
devices 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.”
The highest SAR value for this device when worn on
the body, as described in this user guide, is 1.05 W/kg.
While there may be differences between SAR levels
of various devices and at various positions, they all
meet the government requirement for safe exposure.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization
for this model device with all reported SAR levels
evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF emission
guidelines. SAR information on this model device
is on file with the FCC and can be found under the
ea/fccid/ after searching on FCC ID BEJV909. For
more information about SARs, see the FCC’s OET
Do wireless devices pose any special risks to
children?
The FDA/FCC website states that “the scientific
evidence does not show a danger to users of wireless
communication devices, including children.” The
FDA/FCC website further states that “some groups
sponsored by other national governments have
advised that children be discouraged from using
wireless devices at all”. For example, the Stewart
Report from the United Kingdom [“UK”] made such a
recommendation in December 2000. In this report a

group of independent experts noted that no evidence
exists that using a cell device causes brain tumors or
other ill effects. The UK’s recommendation to limit
cell device use by children was strictly precautionary;
it was not based on scientific evidence that any health
hazard exists. A copy of the UK’s leaflet is available
can write to: NRPB, Chilton, Didcot, Oxon OX11 ORQ,
United Kingdom. Copies of the UK’s annual reports
on mobile devices and RF are available online at www.
(search “mobile”). Parents who wish to reduce their
children’s RF exposure may choose to restrict their
children’s wireless device use.
