Exposure to Radio Frequency  
Signal  
Your wireless handheld portable  
telephone is a lowpower radio  
transmitter and receiver. When it is  
ON, it receives and also sends out  
radio frequency (RF) signals.  
* American National Standards  
Institute; National Council  
on Radiation Protection and  
Measurements; International  
Commission on Non-Ionizing  
Radiation Protection  
The design of your phone complies  
with the FCC guidelines (and those  
standards).  
In August, 1ꢆꢆꢄ, 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:  
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.  
ANSI Cꢆꢃ.1 (1ꢆꢆꢀ) *  
ꢀꢄ  
 
Pull off the road and park before  
making or answering a call if  
driving conditions so require.  
Phone Operation  
NORMAL POSITION: Hold the phone  
as you would any other telephone  
with the antenna pointed up and over  
your shoulder.  
Electronic Devices  
Most modern electronic equipment  
is shielded from RF signals. However,  
certain electronic equipment may not  
be shielded against the RF signals  
from your wireless phone.  
Tips on Efficient Operation  
For your phone to operate most  
efficiently:  
Do not 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.  
Pacemakers  
The Health Industry Manufacturers  
Association recommends that a  
minimum separation of six (ꢄ’) 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.  
Driving  
Check the laws and regulations on  
the use of wireless phones in the  
areas where you drive. Always obey  
them. Also, if using your phone while  
driving, please:  
Persons with pacemakers:  
Give full attention to driving - driving  
safely is your first responsibility;  
Use hands-free operation, if  
available;  
Should ALWAYS keep the phone  
more than six inches from their  
pacemaker when the phone is  
turned ON;

breast pocket.  
in these areas instruct you to do so.  
Hospitals or health care facilities may  
use equipment that could be sensitive  
to external RF energy.  
Should use the ear opposite  
the pacemaker to minimize the  
potential for interference.  
If you have any reason to suspect  
that interference is taking place,  
turn your phone OFF 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.  
Hearing Aids  
Some digital wireless phones may  
interfere with some hearing aids. In  
the event of such interference, you  
may want to consult AT&T.  
Posted Facilities  
Other Medical Devices  
Turn your phone OFF in any facility  
where posted notices so require.  
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.  
Aircraft  
FCC regulations prohibit using your  
phone while in the air. Turn your  
phone OFF before boarding an  
aircraft.  
Health Care Facilities  
Turn your phone OFF in health care  
facilities when any regulations posted

you would normally be advised to turn  
off your vehicle engine.  
Blasting Areas  
To avoid interfering with blasting  
operations, turn your phone OFF  
when in a ‘blasting areas or in areas  
posted: ‘Turn off two-way radio’. Obey  
all signs and instructions.  
For Vehicles Equipped with  
an Air Bag  
An air bag inflates with great force.  
DO NOT place objects, including  
either installed or portable wireless  
equipment, in the area over the air  
bag or in the air bag deployment  
area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment  
is improperly installed and the air bag  
inflates, serious injury could result.  
Potentially Explosive  
Atmosphere  
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.  
Areas with a potentially explosive  
atmosphere are often, but not always,  
marked clearly. Potential areas  
may include: fueling areas (such  
as gasoline 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 particles

1. Do wireless phones pose a  
health hazard?  
2. What is the FDA’s role  
concerning the safety of  
wireless phones?  
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 radiofrequency energy (RF) in the  
microwave range while being used.  
They also emit very low levels of RF  
when in the Home screen. Whereas  
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  
radiofrequency energy (RF) at a level  
ꢁꢀ  
 
that is hazardous to the user. In such aspects of RF safety to ensure  
a case, the FDA could require the  
manufacturers of wireless phones to  
coordinated efforts at the federal  
level. The following agencies belong

to repair, replace, or recall the phones  
so that the hazard no longer exists.  
National Institute for Occupational  
Safety and Health  
Although the existing scientific data  
do not justify FDA regulatory actions,  
the FDA has urged the wireless  
phone industry to take a number of  
steps, including the following:  
Environmental Protection Agency  
Occupational Safety and Health  
Administration (Administración de la  
seguridad y salud laborales)

Design wireless phones in a way  
that minimizes any RF exposure to  
the user that is not necessary for  
device function; and  
The 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. The FCC relies  
on the FDA and other health agencies  
for safety questions about wireless  
phones.  
Cooperate in providing users of  
wireless phones with the best  
possible information on possible  
effects of wireless phone use on  
human health.

exposures far below the FCC safety  
limits.  
3. What kinds of phones are the  
subject of this update?  
4. What are the results of the  
research done already?  
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  
radiofrequency energy (RF) because  
of the short distance between the  
phone and the user’s head. These  
RF exposures are limited by FCC  
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

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  
of the studies can answer questions  
about long-term exposures, since the  
average period of phone use in these  
studies was around three years.  
5. What research is needed to  
decide whether RF exposure  
from wireless phones poses a  
health risk?  
Acombination 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  
pre-disposed to develop cancer  
in the absence of RF exposure.  
Other studies exposed the animals  
to RF for up to ꢀꢀ 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 ꢀ000. Between them, the  
studies investigated any possible  
association between the use of  
wireless phones and primary brain  
cancer, glioma, meningioma, or  
acoustic neuroma, 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

6. What is the FDA doing to find  
out more about the possible  
health effects of wireless phone  
RF?  
The 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). The  
FDA has been a leading participant  
in the World Health Organization  
International Electromagnetic Fields  
(EMF) Project since its inception in  
1ꢆꢆꢄ. An influential result of this  
work has been the development of  
& Internet Association (CTIA) have  
a formal Cooperative Research  
and Development Agreement  
(CRADA) to do research on wireless  
phone safety. The FDA provides  
the scientific oversight, obtaining  
input from experts in government,  
industry, and academic organizations.  
CTIA-funded research is conducted  
through contracts with 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.

7. How can I find out how  
much radio frequency energy  
of wireless phones must report the  
RF exposure level for each model of  
exposure I can get by using my phone to the FCC. The FCC website  
wireless phone?  
All phones sold in the United  
(http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety)  
gives directions for locating the FCC  
identification number on your phone  
so you can find your phone’s RF  
exposure level in the online listing.  
8. What has the FDA done to  
measure the radio frequency  
energy coming from wireless  
phones?  
States must comply with Federal  
Communications Commission (FCC)  
guidelines that limit radio frequency  
energy (RF) 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 telephones  
is set at a Specific Absorption Rate  
(SAR) of 1.ꢄ watts per kilogram (1.ꢄ  
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  
Protection and Measurement.  
The Institute of Electrical and  
Electronic Engineers (IEEE) is  
developing a technical standard  
for measuring the radio frequency  
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  
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  
(SAR) in the Human Body Due to  
Wireless Communications Devices:  
Experimental Techniques,’ sets forth  
the first consistent test methodology  
ꢁꢅ  
 
Safety Guidelines  
for measuring the rate at which RF  
is deposited in the heads of wireless  
phone users. The test method uses  
a tissuesimulating model of the  
human head. Standardized SAR  
test methodology is expected to  
greatly improve the consistency of  
measurements made at different  
(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  
laboratories on the same phone. SAR and the source of the RF, since the  
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.  
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  
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.  
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  
ꢁ8  
 
exposure to radiofrequency energy  
(RF), the measures described above

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.

first responsibility.

CellPhones/default.htm)  
Federal Communications Commission  
(FCC) RF Safety Program  
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. Carefully read  
your instruction manual and learn  
to take advantage of valuable  
features most phones offer,  
(http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety)  
International Commission on Non-  
lonizing Radiation Protection (http://  
www.icnirp.de)  
including automatic redial and  
ꢂ0  
 
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.  
3. Position your wireless phone within  
easy reach. Make sure you place  
your wireless phone within easy  
reach and where you can reach 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.  
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.  
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 is  
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  
4. Suspend conversations during  
hazardous driving conditions or  
situations. Let the person you  
are speaking with know you are  
driving; if necessary, suspend the  
ꢂ1  
 
Safety Guidelines  
tip— 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. 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 ꢆ11 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!  
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 ꢆ11 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

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.ꢄW/kg.  
Consumer Information on  
SAR (Specific Absorption  
Rate)  
This Model Phone Meets the  
Government’s Requirements for  
Exposure to Radio Waves.  
* 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  
while operating can be well below  
the maximum value. Because the  
phone is designed to operate at  
multiple power levels 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.  
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 standards that were developed by  
independent scientific organizations  
through periodic and thorough  
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  
evaluation of scientific studies. The  
standards include a substantial safety

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 LG Arena phone when tested  
for use at the ear is 0,00 W/kg and  
when worn on the body, as described  
in this user’s manual, is 0,00 W/kg.  
(Body-worn measurements differ  
among phones models, depending  
upon available accessories and  
FCC requirements.) While there  
may be differences between 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  
emission guidelines. SAR information  
on this model phone is on file with  
the FCC and can be found under the

Industry Association (CTIA) website at  
* In the United States and Canada,  
the SAR limit for mobile phones  
used by the public is 1.ꢄ watts/kg

substantial margin of safety to give  
additional protection for the public  
and to account for any variations in  
measurements.  
Hearing Aid Compatibility  
(HAC) with Mobile Phones  
When some mobile phones are used  
near some hearing devices (hearing  
aids and cochlear implants),users  
may detect a buzzing, humming, or  
whining noise. Some hearing devices  
are more immune than others to this  
interference noise, and phones also  
vary in the amount of interference  
they generate. The wireless telephone  
ꢂꢂ  
 
industry has developed ratings for  
some of their mobile phones, to  
hearing device’s telecoil (“T Switch”  
or “Telephone Switch”) than unrated  
assist hearing device users in finding phones. Tꢂ is the better/higher of the  
phones that may be compatible  
with their hearing devices. Not all  
phones have been rated. Phones  
that are rated have the rating on  
their box or a label on the box. The  
ratings are not guarantees. Results  
will vary depending on the user’s  
hearing device and hearing loss. If  
your hearing device happens to be  
vulnerable to interference, you may  
not be able to use a rated phone  
successfully. Trying out the phone  
with your hearing device is the best  
way to evaluate it for your personal  
needs.  
M-Ratings: Phones rated Mꢁ or  
Mꢂ meet FCC requirements and are  
likely to generate less interference to  
hearing devices than phones that are  
not labeled. Mꢂ is the better/higher of  
the two ratings.  
two ratings. (Note that not all hearing  
devices have telecoils in them.)  
Hearing devices may also be  
measured for immunity to this type  
of interference. Your hearing device  
manufacturer or hearing health  
professional may help you find  
results for your hearing device. The  
more immune your hearing aid is,  
the less likely you are to experience  
interference noise from mobile  
phones.  
To ensure that the Hearing Aid  
Compatibility rating for your phone is  
maintained, secondary transmitters  
such as Bluetooth® and WLAN  
components must be disabled during  
a call.
