Consumer Information About Radio Frequency Emissions
Your wireless phone, 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 phones.
Are wireless phones safe?Scientific research on the subject of wireless phones and radio frequency 
(“RF”) energy has been conducted worldwide for many years, and continues. 
In the United States, the Food and Drug...

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 rate of absorption of  RF energy in the body. Tests for SAR are 
conducted with the phone transmitting at its highest power level in all tested 
frequency bands. Since 1996, the FCC has required that the SAR of handheld  
wireless phones not exceed 1.6 watts per kilogram, averaged over one gram of 
tissue....

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 talk 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 phones for convenience 
and comfort. These systems reduce the absorption of RF energy in the head 
because the...

Tips on Efficient OperationFor your phone to operate most efficiently:
Don’t touch the antenna unnecessarily when the phone is in use. Contact 
with the antenna affects call quality and may cause the phone to operate at a 
higher power level than otherwise needed.
Electronic DevicesMost modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals. However, 
certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals from 
your wireless phone.
