Under the law, the 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 (RF) energy at a  
level that is hazardous to the user. In  
such a case, the 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.

limits.  
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 Radio Frequency (RF)  
energy 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.  
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  
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  
do not know with certainty what the  
results of such studies mean for  
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  
ten or more years follow-up may be  
needed to provide answers about  
some health effects, such as cancer.

7. How can I find out how much  
Radio Frequency 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 Radio Frequency  
(RF) energy exposures. The FCC  
established these guidelines in  
consultation with the FDA and the  
other federal health and safety  
agencies. The FCC limit for RF  
exposure from wireless phones 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 Electrical and  
Electronic Engineering (IEEE) and the  
National Council on Radiation  
The FDA has been a leading  
participant in the World Health  
Organization International Electro

its inception in 1996. An influential  
result of this work has been the  
development of a detailed agenda of

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 (RF) energy. Since time is  
a key factor in how much exposure a  
person receives, reducing the  
8. What has the 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 (RF)  
energy 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  
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 the  
RF exposure from these products,  
you can use measures like those  
described above to reduce your RF  
exposure from wireless phone use.  
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

measures described above would  
apply to children and teenagers  
using wireless phones. Reducing the

RF exposure.  
The FDA has tested hearing aids for

Some groups sponsored by other  
national governments have advised

no evidence exists that using a  
wireless phone causes brain tumors

Engineers (IEEE). This standard

and a “compatible” hearing aid at  
the same time. This standard was  
approved by the IEEE in 2000.  
recommendation to limit wireless  
phone use by children was strictly  
precautionary; it was not based on  
scientific evidence that any health  
hazard exists.  
The FDA continues to monitor the  
use of wireless phones for possible  
interactions with other medical  
devices. Should harmful interference  
be found to occur, the FDA will  
conduct testing to assess the  
interference and work to resolve the  
problem.

10 Driver Safety Tips  
Your wireless phone gives you the  
powerful ability to communicate by  
voice almost anywhere, anytime. An  
important responsibility accompanies  
the benefits of wireless phones, one  
that every user must uphold.  
When operating 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:  
5.Don’t take notes or look up phone  
numbers while driving. If you are  
reading an address book or  
1.Get to know your wireless phone  
and its features such as speed dial  
and redial. Carefully read your

attention off the road.  
business card, or writing a “to-do”  
list while driving a car, you are not  
watching where you are going. It is  
common sense. Do not 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.  
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  
can still 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.  
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.  
The above tips are meant as  
general guidelines. Before  
deciding to use your mobile  
device while operating a vehicle,  
it is recommended that you  
consult your applicable  
jurisdiction’s local laws or other  
regulations regarding such use.  
Such laws or other regulations  
may prohibit or otherwise  
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 911 or  
other local emergency number in  
the case of fire, traffic accident,  
road hazard, or medical emergency.  
Remember, it’s a free call on your  
wireless phone!  
restrict the manner in which a  
driver may use his or her phone  
while operating a vehicle.  
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 911 or other local  
emergency number, as you would  
want others to do for you.

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

The exposure limit for wireless  
mobile phones employs a unit of  
measurement known as the Specific  
Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR is  
a measure of the rate of absorption  
of RF energy by the human body  
expressed in units of watts per  
kilogram (W/kg). The FCC requires  
wireless phones to comply with a  
safety limit of 1.6 watts per kilogram  
(1.6 W/kg). The FCC exposure limit  
incorporates a substantial margin of  
safety to give additional protection to  
the public and to account for any  
variations in measurements.  
Tests for SAR 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 SAR is determined  
at the highest certified power level,  
the actual SAR level of the phone
