Portable Cellular Telephone  
DRIVING SAFETY  
Talking on the phone while driving is extremely dangerous and is illegal in  
some states. Remember, safety comes first. Check the laws and  
regulations on the use of phones in the areas where you drive.  
Always obey them.  
EXPOSURE TO RADIO FREQUENCY SIGNALS  
Your wireless handheld portable telephone is a low power radio  
transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it receives and also sends out  
radio frequency (RF) signals.  
Also, if using your phone while driving, please:  
l
l
l
Give full attention to driving. Driving safely is your first responsibility.  
Use hands-free operation, if available.  
In August 1996, the Federal Communications Commissions (FCC)  
adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for handheld wireless  
phones. Those guidelines are consistent with the safety standards  
previously set by both U.S. and international standards bodies:  
Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call, if  
driving conditions so require.  
ANSI C95.1 (1992) *  
NCRP Report 86 (1986) *  
ICNIRP (1996) *  
If you must use the phone while driving, please use one-touch, speed  
dialing, and auto answer modes.  
An airbag inflates with great force. DO NOT place objects, including both  
installed or portable wireless equipment, in the area over the airbag or in  
the air bag deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is  
improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious injury could result.  
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 (C951).  
The design of your phone complies with the FCC guidelines (and those  
standards).  
WARNING: Failure to follow these instructions may lead to serious  
personal injury and possible property damage.  
ANTENNA CARE  
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna.  
Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage  
the phone and may violate FCC regulations.

OTHER SAFETY GUIDELINES  
ELECTRONIC DEVICES  
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF energy.  
However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against  
the RF signals from your wireless phone.  
AIRCRAFT  
FCC and Transport Canada Regulations prohibit using your phone while  
in the air. Turn your phone OFF before boarding an aircraft.  
PACEMAKERS  
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a  
minimum separation of six (6”) inches be maintained between a handheld  
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 :  
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  
l
ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches from your  
pacemaker when the phone is turned on.  
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 or even death.  
l
l
Do not carry the phone in a breast pocket.  
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always,  
clearly marked. They include fueling areas such as gas stations; below  
deck on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities; vehicles using  
liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane); areas where the air  
contains chemicals or articles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders; and  
any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your  
vehicle’s engine.  
Use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for  
interference.  
l
If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place,  
turn your phone OFF immediately.  
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 healthcare facilities when any regulations posted  
in these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or healthcare facilities may  
be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.

PRECAUTIONS  
WARNING! Read this Information before using  
Your Handheld Portable Telephone is a high quality piece of  
equipment. Before operating, read all instructions and cautionary  
markings on (1) AC Adaptor (2) Battery and (3) Product Using Battery.  
CAUTIONS  
In August 1996 the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the  
United States with its action in Report and Order FCC 96-326 adopted an  
updated safety standard for human exposure to radio frequency  
electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC regulated transmitters. Those  
guidelines are consistent with the safety standard previously set by both  
U.S. and international standards bodies. The design of this phone  
complies with the FCC guidelines and these international standards.  
Use only the supplied or an approved antenna. Unauthorized antennas,  
modifications, or attachments could impair call quality, damage the  
phone, or result in violation of FCC regulations.  
DO NOT use this equipment in an extreme environment where  
high temperature or high humidity exists.  
DO NOT abuse the equipment. Avoid striking, shaking or  
shocking. When not using, lay down the unit to avoid possible  
damage due to instability.  
Do not use the phone with a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna  
comes into contact with the skin, a minor burn may result. Please contact  
your local dealer for replacement antenna.  
DO NOT expose this equipment to rain or spilled beverages.  
DO NOT use unauthorized accessories.  
BODY-WORN OPERATION  
This device was tested for typical body-worn operations with the  
back of the phone kept 2.0 cm. from the body. To maintain  
compliance with FCC RF exposure requirements, use only belt-clips,  
holsters or similar accessories that maintain a 2.0 cm. separation  
distance between the user’s body and the back of the phone,  
including the antenna. The use of belt-clips, holsters and similar  
accessories should not contain metallic components in its assembly.  
The use of accessories that do not satisfy these requirements may  
not comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, and should be  
avoided.  
DO NOT disassemble the phone or its accessories. If service  
or repair is required, return unit to an authorized Audiovox  
cellular service center. If unit is disassembled, the risk of  
electric shock or fire may result.  
DO NOT short-circuit the battery terminals with metal items etc.

SAR INFORMATION  
SAR INFORMATION  
THIS MODEL PHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S  
REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.  
Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be  
found on the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association (CTIA)  
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  
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.  
* In the United States 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 sub-stantial margin of safety to  
give additional protection for the public and to account for any  
variations in measurements.  
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of  
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The  
SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg. * Tests for SAR are conducted  
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 phone 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 highest SAR value for this model phone when tested for  
use at the ear is 1.15 W/Kg and when worn on the body, as described  
in this user guide, is 0.393W/Kg. (Body-worn measurements differ  
among phone models, depending upon available accessories and  
FCC requirements). While there may be differences between the SAR  
levels of various phones and at various positions, they all meet the  
government requirement for safe exposure.  
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  
PP4TX-110C.

FDA CONSUMER UPDATE  
FDA CONSUMER UPDATE  
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.  
U.S. Food and Drug Administration -Center for Devices and  
Radiological Health Consumer Update on Wireless Phones  
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 far below the  
FCC safety limits.  
1. 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.  
4. 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 radiofrequency 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 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 predisposed 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, glioma, meningioma, or acoustic neu-  
roma, tumors of the brain or salivary gland, leukemia, or other cancers. None of the  
studies demonstrated the existence 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.  
2. 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 de-vices. 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. 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:  
• National Institute for Occupational Safety 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. 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 subject of the safety questions discussed in this  
document.  
5. 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 cancercausing 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.  
6. What is FDA doing to find out more about the possible health effects of  
wireless phone RF?  
C
H
C
H
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  
radiofrequency energy (RF). 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 pro-  
grams around the world.  
3. 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.

FDA CONSUMER UPDATE  
FDA CONSUMER UPDATE  
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 De-velopment Agreement  
(CRADA) to do research on wireless phone safety. FDA provides the scientific  
oversight, obtaining input from experts in government, industry, and academic or-  
ganizations. CTIA-funded research is conducted through contracts to independent  
investigators. The initial research will include both laboratory studies and studies of  
wireless 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.  
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.  
10.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  
radiofrequency energy (RF), the measures 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 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 us-  
7. How can I find out how much radiofrequency energy exposure I can get by  
using my wireless phone?  
All phones sold in the United States must comply with Federal Communications  
Commission (FCC) guidelines that limit radiofrequency energy (RF) exposures. FCC  
established these guidelines in consultation with FDA and the other federal health  
and safety agencies. The FCC limit for RF exposure from wireless telephones is set  
at a Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) of 1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg). The FCC  
limit is consistent with the safety standards developed by the Institute of Electri-cal  
and Electronic Engineering (IEEE) and the National Council on Radiation Protection  
and Measurement. The exposure limit takes into consideration the body’s ability to  
remove heat from the tissues that absorb energy from the wireless phone and is  
set well below levels known to have effects. Manufacturers of wireless phones  
must report the RF exposure level for each model of phone to the FCC. The FCC

level in the online listing.  
ing  
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.  
11.What about wireless phone interference with medical equipment?  
Radiofrequency 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 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 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.  
8. What has FDA done to measure the radiofrequency energy coming from  
wireless phones ?  
The Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) is developing a technical  
standard for measuring the radiofrequency energy (RF) exposure from wireless  
phones and other wireless handsets 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.  
12.Where can I find additional information?  
For additional information, please refer to the following resources:  
• Federal Communications Commission (FCC) RF Safety Pro-gram  
(http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety)  
• International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protec-tion  
(http://www.icnirp.de)  
• World Health Organization (WHO) International EMF Project  
(http://www.who.int/emf)  
• National Radiological Protection Board (UK) (http://www.nrpb.org.uk/)  
9. What steps can I take to reduce my exposure to radiofrequency 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  
radiofrequency 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.
