Safety is the most important call you will ever make.

■ A Guide to Safe and Responsible Wireless Phone Use

Tens of millions of people in the U.S. today take advantage of the unique combination
of convenience, safety and value delivered by the wireless telephone. Quite simply,
the wireless phone gives people the powerful ability to communicate by voice—
almost anywhere, anytime—with the boss, with a client, with the kids, with
emergency personnel or even with the police. Each year, Americans make billions
of calls from their wireless phones, and the numbers are rapidly growing.But an
important responsibility accompanies those benefits, one that every wireless phone
user must uphold. When driving a car, driving is your first responsibility. A wireless
phone can be an invaluable tool, but good judgment must be exercised at all times
while driving a motor vehicle—whether on the phone or not.The basic lessons are
ones we all learned as teenagers. Driving requires alertness, caution and courtesy.
It requires a heavy dose of basic common sense—keep your head up, keep your eyes
on the road, check your mirrors frequently and watch out for other drivers. It requires
obeying all traffic signs and signals and staying within the speed limit. It means
using seatbelts and requiring other passengers to do the same. But with wireless
phone use, driving safely means a little more. This brochure is a call to wireless
phone users everywhere to make safety their first priority when behind the wheel
of a car. Wireless telecommunications is keeping us in touch, simplifying our lives,
protecting us in emergencies and providing opportunities to help others in need.
When it comes to the use of wireless phones, safety is your most important call.

■ Wireless Phone "Safety Tips"

Below are safety tips to follow while driving and using a wireless phone which
should be easy to remember.

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, including automatic redial and 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 grab it without removing
your eyes from the road. If you get an incoming call at an inconvenient time, if
possible, let your voice mail answer it for you.

4. Suspend conversations during hazardous driving conditions or situations. Let
the person you are speaking with know you are driving; if necessary, suspend
the 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’s 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 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.

10

Message from the CTIA

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 9-1-1 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 9-1-1 or other local emergency number, as you would
want others to do for you.

10. Call roadside assistance or a special wireless nonemergency 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 still can 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.

Careless, distracted individuals and people driving irresponsibly represent a hazard
to everyone on the road. Since 1984, the Cellular Telecommunications Industry
Association and the wireless industry have conducted educational outreach to
inform wireless phone users of their responsibilities as safe drivers and good
citizens. As we approach a new century, more and more of us will take advantage
of the benefits of wireless telephones. And, as we take to t he roads, we all have a
responsibility to drive safely.The wireless industry reminds you to use your phone
safely when driving. For more information, please call 1-888-901-SAFE.

Message from the FDA

4. Message from the FDA

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) provides the following consumer
information about wireless phones.

See http://www.fda.gov/cellphones/ for updated information.

Do wi rel ess phones pose a hea lth haz ard?

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 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.

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 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 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

12

Message from the FDA

• 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 primary subject of the safety questions discussed in this document.

What is FDA doing to find out more about the possible health effects of
wireless phone RF?

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
programs around the world. 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

Development Agreement (CRADA) to do research on wireless phone safety. FDA
provides the scientific oversight, obtaining input from experts in government,
industry, and academic organizations. 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.

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

13

Message from the FDA

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.

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.

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 using 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.

Do hands-free kits for wireless phones reduce risks from exposure to RF emissions?

Since there are no known risks from exposure to RF emissions from wireless phones,
there is no reason to believe that hands-free kits reduce risks. 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 phone, which is the source of
the RF emissions, will not be placed against the head. On the other hand, if the phone
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 phones 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.

14

Message from the FDA

Do wireless phone accessories that claim to shield the head from RF
radiation work?

Since there are no known risks from exposure to RF emissions from wireless phones,
there is no reason to believe that accessories that claim to shield the head from
those emissions reduce risks. Some products that claim to shield the user from RF
absorption use special phone cases, while others involve nothing more than a
metallic accessory attached to the phone. Studies have shown that these products
generally do not work as advertised. Unlike "hand-free" kits, these so-called "shields"
may interfere with proper operation of the phone. The phone may be forced to boost
its power to compensate, leading to an increase in RF absorption. In February 2002,
the Federal trade Commission (FTC) charged two companies that sold devices that
claimed to protect wireless phone users from radiation with making false and
unsubstantiated claims. According to FTC, these defendants lacked a reasonable
basis to substantiate their claim.

How does FCC Audit Cell Phone RF?

After FCC grants permission for a particular cellular telephone to be marketed, FCC will
occasionally conduct “post-grant” testing to determine whether production versions
of the phone are being produced to conform with FCC regulatory requirements. The
manufacturer of a cell phone that does not meet FCC’s regulatory requirements
may be required to remove the cell phone from use and to refund the purchase price
or provide a replacement phone, and may be subject to civil or criminal penalties.
In addition, if the cell phone presents a risk of injury to the user, FDA may also
take regulatory action. The most important post-grant test, from a consumer’s
perspective, is testing of the RF emissions of the phone. FCC measures the Specific
Absorption Rate (SAR) of the phone, following a very rigorous testing protocol.
As is true for nearly any scientific measurement, there is a possibility that the test
measurement may be less than or greater than the actual RF emitted by the phone.
This difference between the RF test measurement and actual RF emission is because
test measurements are limited by instrument accuracy, because test measurement
and actual use environments are different, and other variable factors. This inherent
variability is known as “measurement uncertainty.” When FCC conducts post-grant
testing of a cell phone, FCC takes into account any measurement uncertainty to
determine whether regulatory action is appropriate. This approach ensures that
when FCC takes regulatory action, it will have a sound, defensible scientific basis.

FDA scientific staff reviewed the methodology used by FCC to measure cell phone
RF, and agreed it is an acceptable approach, given our current understanding of the
risks presented by cellular phone RF emissions. RF emissions from cellular phones
have not been shown to present a risk of injury to the user when the measured SAR
is less than the safety limits set by FCC (an SAR of 1.6 w/kg). Even in a case where

15

the maximum measurement uncertainty permitted by current measurement
standards was added to the maximum permissible SAR, the resulting SAR value
would be well below any level known to produce an acute effect. Consequently,
FCC’s approach with measurement uncertainty will not result in consumers being
exposed to any known risk from the RF emitted by cellular telephones.

FDA will continue to monitor studies and literature reports concerning acute
effects of cell phone RF, and concerning chronic effects of long-term exposure to
cellular telephone RF (that is, the risks from using a cell phone for many years). If
new information leads FDA to believe that a change to FCC’s measurement policy
may be appropriate, FDA will contact FCC and both agencies will work together to
develop a mutually-acceptable approach.

1. La garantía limitada para el Producto cubre UN (1) año a partir de la fecha de

La seguridad es su deber más importante que tendrá que realizar.

■ Una guía para el uso responsable y seguro del teléfono celular

Hoy día millones de personas en los Estados Unidos aprovechan de la combinación
única de comodidad, seguridad y valor que la telefonía celular aporta. Sencillamente,
el teléfono celular da a la gente la habilidad poderosa de poder comunicarse por voz ­casi en todos los sitios a cualquier hora - con el jefe, un cliente, los hijos, en caso de
emergencias o incluso con la policía. Cada año los americanos hacen miles de millones
de llamadas con sus teléfonos celulares, y aun la cifra asciende rápidamente. Pero
una responsabilidad importante acompaña esas ventajas la cual es reconocida por
el usuario de teléfono celular. Cuando es tá conduciendo, su responsabilidad primordial
es conducir. Un teléfono celular puede ser una herramienta indispensable, no obstante,
el conductor deberá tener un buen juicio todo el tiempo mientras está conduciendo ­esté o no esté usando el teléfono. Las lecciones básicas son aquellas que habíamos
aprendido cuando éramos jóvenes. El conducir requiere agilidad, precaución y
cortesía. Necesita mucho sentido común - mantenga la cabeza en posición normal,
dirija la vista hacia el trayecto, compruebe los visores con frecuencia y precaución con
los demás conductores. Deberá respetar todas las señales de tráfico y mantenerse
dentro del límite de velocidad. Deberá abrocharse el cinturón de seguridad y requerir
que los otros pasajeros hagan lo mismo. Pero con el teléfono celular, el conducir
significa algo más. Este folleto es una llamada a todos los usuarios de teléfonos
celulares en todos los sitios para que la seguridad sea su prioridad cuando están
detrás del volante. La telecomunicación celular sirve para ponernos en contacto,
simplificar nuestra vida, protegernos durante una emergencia y proveernos la
oportunidad de poder ayudar a los demás. En cuanto al uso del teléfono celular,
la seguridad es su deber más importante.

■ "Guías de seguridad sobre el uso del Teléfono Celular"

A continuación, se reflejan las guías de seguridad a seguir mientras está conduciendo
y usando un teléfono celular las cuales deberían ser fáciles de recordar.

1. Conozca bien su teléfono celular y sus funciones, tales como la marcación rápida
y rediscado. Lea detenidamente su manual de instrucciones y aprenda a optimizar
las opciones que el teléfono pueda ofrecer, incluyendo rediscado automático y la
memoria. También, aprenda de memoria el teclado para poder usar la función de
marcación rápida sin la necesidad de quitar la vista de la carretera.

2. Cuando esté disponible, use la función manos libres. Hoy día se dispone de una
cantidad de accesorios manos libres. Aunque elija el dispositivo de montaje
instalado para su teléfono celular o un microteléfono, aproveche los
dispositivos disponibles.

3. Coloque su teléfono celular para un alcance fácil. Asegúrese de ubicar su teléfono
celular a la mano, donde lo pueda levantar sin tener que quitar la vista de la
carretera. Cuando entre una llamada, si es posible, que su buzón de voz lo responda.

4. Posponga cualquier conversación mientras esté conduciendo en una situación muy
peligrosa. Como conductor, su responsabilidad es prestarle atención al tráfico.
Dígale a la otra persona que usted está conduciendo; si fuera necesario, cancele la
llamada en embotellamientos o durante situaciones peligrosas de tiempo. La lluvia,
aguanieve, nieve y hielo pueden ser tan peligrosas como los embotellamientos.
Como conductor, su responsabilidad es prestarle atención al tráfico.

5. No tome notas o busque números telefónicos cuando esté conduciendo. Si está
leyendo un directorio o tarjeta de negocio, o escribiendo una lista de "tareas"
mientras está conduciendo, no estará al tanto de su ruta. Es caso de sentido
común. No se involucre en situaciones de tráfico peligrosas debido a que usted esté
leyendo o escribiendo sin prestar atención al tráfico y a los vehículos cercanos.

6. Marque con sensatez y esté al tanto del tráfico; si fuera posible, haga las llamadas
cuando esté estacionado o retirado de la carretera antes de hablar. Trate de planear
sus llamadas antes de emprender el viaje para que sus llamadas coincidan con las
señales de Stop, semáforos en rojo o estacionamientos. Pero, si es preciso hacer
una llamada mientras esté conduciendo, siga esta norma sencilla: marque unos
pocos números, compruebe la carretera y sus visores, y luego continúe.

7. Evite conversaciones estresantes y emotivas que puedan distraer la atención.
No se pueden combinar el conducir y las conversaciones emotivas y estresantes ­es muy peligroso cuando está detrás del volante. Que la persona con quien está
hablando sepa que usted está conduciendo, y si es necesario, evite conversaciones
de distracción.

8. Utilice su teléfono celular para pedir socorro. Su teléfono celular es una de las
mejores herramientas que puede adquirir para protegerse a usted y a su familia
en situaciones peligrosas - con su teléfono a su lado te ndrá el socorro a su alcance
con sólo la marcación de tres números. Marque 9-1-1 o el número local de
emergencia en caso de incendio, accidente de tráfico, peligro en la carretera o
emergencia médica. Recuerde, ¡es una llamada gratis en su teléfono celular!

9. Use su teléfono celular para ayudar a los demás en tiempo de emergencia. Su
teléfono celular le brinda la oportunidad perfecta para ser "un buen samaritano"
en su comunidad. En situaciones de accidente de tráfico, crímenes u otras
emergencias de vida, llame al 9-1-1 o el número local de emergencia, como
usted quiere que los demás hagan por usted.

10. Cuando sea necesario, llame al centro de asistencia de tráfico u otro número
celular de ayuda para situaciones que no son de emergencia. Puede encontrar
ciertas situaciones cuando esté conduciendo las cuales no merecen la necesidad
de referirlas a los servicios de emergencia. Pero sí puede usar su teléfono celular
para echar una mano. Si ve un automóvil que no corre en medio de la carretera
aunque no signifique ningún peligro, señales rotas de tráfico, un accidente
de tráfico sin ningún herido, o un vehículo robado, llame a la asistencia o a
otros números especiales de teléfonos celulares en situaciones que no son
de emergencia.

Las personas irresponsables, descuidadas, distraídas y los que conduzcan
irresponsablemente representan un peligro en la carretera. Al acercarnos hacia un
siglo nuevo, más gente se aprovechará de las ventajas de los teléfonos celulares.
Desde el año 1984, la Asociación de la Industria de Telecomunicaciones Celulares
(CTIA) y la industria celular han realizado asistencia educativa para informar a los
usuarios de teléfonos celulares de su responsabilidad siendo conductores cautelosos
y buenos ciudadanos. Al acercarnos hacia un siglo nuevo, más gente se aprovechará
de las ventajas de los teléfonos celulares. Y, al dirigirnos a la carretera, todos
tenemos la responsabilidad de conducir con cautela.

La industria celular le recuerda utilizar con seguridad su teléfono
mientras conduce.
