Are Wi reless Phon es and Device s Safe?
Scientific research on the subject of wireless
devices and radio freq uency (“ RF”) ene rgy has
been co nducted w orldwide fo r many years , and
continues . In the United States, t he Food and
Drug Adminis tration (“FDA”) an d the Federal
Communications Commission (“FCC”) set policies and
proce dures for wi reless device s. The FDA issu ed a
website public ation on health issu es related to cell
phon e usage where it states that , while resea rch is
ongoing, “available scientific evidence—including
World He alth Organ ization [ “WHO” ] findings [in t he
Inter phone study] released Ma y 17, 2010—shows
no increased h ealth risk d ue to radiofrequen cy (RF)
ener gy, a form of electromagne tic radiation that
is emit ted by cell pho nes.” The FDA al so cites a
separate National Cancer Institute program finding
that , despite the drama tic increase in cell pho ne
use, occurre nces of brain c ancer did not i ncrease
bet ween 1987 and 2 005. You can access t he FDA
website at http://www.fda.gov/ForConsumers/
ConsumerUpdates/ucm212273.htm. You can also
conta ct the FDA toll-f ree at (888) 463-6332 or (888)
INFO-FDA. T he FCC has its ow n website publicatio n
stating tha t “[t]here i s no scientific evidence that
proves that wi reless phon e usage can lea d to cancer
or other problems, including headaches, dizziness
or memory loss.” This publication is available at
http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/cellular.html or t hrough
the FCC at (8 88) 225- 5322 or (88 8) CALL-FCC.
The Na tional Cancer Institute ( “NCI”) s tates that
conce rns about t he potential healt h effect s
of using cellular phone s—“and specifically the
sug gestion that using a cell phon e may increas e a
pers on’s risk of developing brain ca ncer —are not
supported by a grow ing body of research on the
subject.” You can access NCI’s review of the research
at http://www.cancer.gov/ncicancerbulletin/
NCI_Cancer_Bulletin_092308/page7. The WHO’s
Inter phone study is th e largest study of c ell phone
use and brain tu mors ever under taken. WHO
summarized its conclusions concerning Interphone
as follows: “O verall, no in crease in ris k of glioma or
menin gioma was observed with u se of mobile pho nes.
Ther e were suggestion s of an increased risk of
glioma at the hi ghest exposure levels, b ut biases and

What D oes Specif ic Absorpt ion Rate (SAR) Me an?
In 1996, the FCC, working with th e FDA, the U.S . Environmental Prote ction Agency (EPA) an d other agen cies,
established RF exposure safet y guidelines for wire less
devices in the U nited States. Before a wireless device
model i s available for sale to th e public, it must be tes ted by
the ma nufacturer an d certified t o the FCC that it does not
exceed limits established by the FCC.
One of t hese limits i s expresse d as a Specific Ab sorption
Rate, o r “SAR.” SA R is a measure of the rate of absorption of
RF ene rgy in the b ody. Tests f or SAR are conducted with t he
wireless device trans mitting a t its highest power level in all
teste d frequenc y bands. Since 1996 , the FCC has requ ired
that t he SAR of hand held wireles s devices not e xceed 1.6
wat ts per kilogr am, averaged over on e gram of tiss ue.
Although the SAR is determined at t he highes t power level,
the ac tual SAR val ue of a wireless device w hile operating
can be le ss than the re ported SA R value. This is because the
SAR val ue may vary f rom call to call , dependin g on factor s
such as p roximity to a cell site, t he proximit y of the wireless
device to the body while i n use, and the u se of hands-fr ee
devices.
For mor e information abo ut SARs, se e the FCC’s
OET Bu lletins 56 (http://transition.fcc.gov/Bureaus/

of your w ireless device.
Can I Min imize My RF E xposure W hile Using My Phone or
Device?
If you ar e concerne d about RF, there ar e several simple
steps y ou can take to minimize y our RF expo sure. You
can, o f course, re duce your tal k time. You can place m ore
dista nce betwe en your body a nd the source of the R F, as
the exposure level drops off dramatically with distance.
The FDA /FCC website s tates that “ [h]ands-fr ee kits can be
used with wire less devices f or convenience and co mfort.
Thes e systems reduce absorpt ion of RF ener gy in the he ad
because the p hone, which is a sour ce of the RF emi ssions,
will not be placed agains t the head. O n the other hand, if
the ph one is moun ted against t he waist or ot her part of
the bo dy during use, then that pa rt of the body will absorb
more R F energy. Wi reless phones marke ted in the U.S .
are required to meet safety requirements regardless of
whet her they are used aga inst the hea d or against t he body.
Either confi guration s hould resul t in compliance with t he
safety limi t.” Also, if you u se your wireless device while in
a car, you can use a wire less device wi th an antenna on the
outs ide of the vehic le. You shou ld also read an d follow your
wireless device manu facture r’s instr uc t ions for the s afe
operation of your wire less device.
Do Wireless Phones Pose Any Special Ris ks to Childre n?
The FDA website states that “[t ]he scientific evidence
does not show a da nger to any users of cell phone s from
RF exposure, including children an d teenager s.” The FDA
website fur ther state s that “[s]o me groups sponsored by
other national governments have advised that children
be dis cour aged from usi ng cell phones at all. Fo r example,
the Stew art Repor t from the U nited Kingdom [“U K”] made
such a re com men dation in De cember 2000. In this report
a grou p of indepen dent expe rts noted t hat no evide nce

interference with the device.
Persons who have such devices:
• S hould ALWAYS keep the wireless phone more t han
six (6) in ches from th eir implantable medical device
when t he wireless p hone is tur ned ON;
• S hould not carry the wireless phone in a breast
pocket;
• S hould use the e ar opposite the implantable medic al
device to minimize the p otential fo r interfe rence;
• S hould turn t he wireless p hone OFF imm ediately if
there is any reason to su spect tha t interfe rence is

Caut ion: Avoid Poten tial Hearing Loss
Prolo nged expos ure to loud sou nds (includi ng music) is
the mo st common ca use of preven table hearing loss .
Some scientific research suggests that using portable
audio d evices, such as por table music pla yers and
cellula r telephones, at high volum e settings for lon g
dura tions, may lead to permanen t noise-induced hearin g
loss. T his include s the use of hea dphones (including
headsets, earbuds, and Bluetooth® or other wireless
devices). Exp osure to ver y loud sound h as also been
associated in s ome studies with ti nnitus (a ring ing in the
ear), hypersensitivit y to sound, and disto rted hearing.
Indiv idual susceptibility to noi se-induced hear ing loss
and other potential hearing problems varies.
The am ount of sou nd produced by a portable audio
device varies d epending on the nat ure of the so und, the
device, the device set tings, an d the headphones . You
should follow some commonsense recommendations
when u sing any por table audio d evice:
• S et the volume in a quiet e nvironme nt and selec t the
lowest volume a t which you can hear ad equately.
8
• W hen using headpho nes, turn t he volume down if
you cannot he ar the people s peaking near you or if
the pe rson sitting nex t to you can hear what you are
listening to.
• D o not turn th e volume up to blo ck out noisy
sur roun d ings. If you choose to listen to your po rtable
device in a noisy e nvironme nt, use noise-ca ncelling
headphones to block out background environmental
noise.
• L imit the amo unt of time yo u listen. As the volu me
increases, less time is required before your hearing
could be affected.
• Avoid using headphones after exposure to extremely
loud no ises, such as rock con certs, that mig ht cause
temporary hearing loss. Temporary hearing loss

Drive Responsibly
When b ehind the wheel, s afe drivin g is your
respo nsi bility and it should alway s be your first priori ty.
Scien tific resear ch on the subject of wireless p hone
use and driving has been conducted worldwide for
several years. Accord ing to the Nat ional Highway
Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the available
research indicates that using a wireless phone while
driv ing degrad es a driver ’s performance, whether it is a
hands-free or h and-held wi reless phon e. NHTSA adv ises
that t he “safest course o f action is to r efrain from
using a ce ll phone while drivi ng.” NHTSA’s policy on “Ce ll
Phon e Use While Dri ving,” as well as Frequently A sked
Ques tions on the s ubject, a re available a t www.nhtsa.gov

¿Son seg uros los teléfonos y aparatos móviles?
La inve stigación c ientífica en materia de aparatos
móvile s y de energía de radiofrecuencia (R F) se ha
llevad o a cabo en todo el mundo d urante mu chos años,
y aún continú a. En Estado s Unidos, la Administ ración
de Drogas y Alimentos (F DA) y la Comisión Federal
de Comunicaciones (FCC) establecen polí ticas y
procedi mientos para los aparatos móviles. La FDA editó
una pu blicación en su s itio de Inter net sobre pr oblemas
de salu d relacionad os con el uso de tel éfonos móviles en
la cual s e afirma qu e, aunque se están llevando a cabo en
la actualidad investigaciones al respecto, “la evidencia
científic a disponible –incluidas las conclusiones [en
el estudio Interpho ne] de la Orga nización M undial de
la Salu d (OMS) publicad as el 17 de mayo de 2010–
demu estra que no existe un incremento en riesgos para
la salud por la energía d e radiofrec uencia, una forma d e
radiación electromagnética que emiten los teléfonos
móvile s”. La FDA cita tam bién un hallaz go indepen diente

¿Qué sig nifica la Tasa de Ab sorción Específica (SAR)?
En 1996, la FCC, en coordina ción con la FDA, l a Agencia
de Protección A mbiental de EE.UU. (EPA) y otras
agen cias, estableció guí as de seguridad sob re la
exposición a la radiofrecuencia de aparatos móviles
en Esta dos Unidos. Antes d e que se haga di sponible un
aparato móvil para su venta al público, debe someters e a
prue bas por el fabr icante y cer tificar se ante la FCC que
ese aparato móvil no excede los límites establecidos por
la FCC.
Uno de e stos límites s e expresa co mo una Tasa de
Abso rción Especí fica o “SAR ”. La SAR mide la tasa de
absorción de energía de radiofrecuencia en el cuerpo.
Las pr uebas de la SAR se llevan a c abo con el apa rato
móvil t ransmitie ndo a su más alto n ivel de potencia en
todas las bandas de frecuenci a a prueba. D esde 1996,
la FCC ha req uerido que la SAR de los a paratos móviles
manu ales no exceda 1.6 vatios p or kilogram o, cuyo
promedio se hace sobre u n gramo de tej ido. Aunque la
SAR se determina al nivel más alto d e potencia, el valor
real de la SAR de un a parato móvil en oper ación puede
ser inferior al valor de la SAR reportado. Esto s e debe
a que el va lor de la SAR pue de variar con cada lla mada,
dependiend o de factore s como la proxim idad a una
torre celular, la proximida d del aparato m óvil al cuer po
dura nte su uso y el uso d e aparatos d e manos libre s.
15
Para má s información sobre la SAR , consulta los
Bole tine s OET 56 (http://transition.fcc.gov/Bureaus/
Engineering_Technology/Documents/bulletins/oet56/
oet56e4.pdf) y 65 (http://transition.fcc.gov/Bureaus/
Engineering_Technology/Documents/bulletins/oet65/
oet65.pdf). Quizás también s ea conveniente contacta r al
fabricante de tu aparato móvil.
¿Puedo m inimizar m i expo sición a la rad iofrecuen cia
mient ras uso mi teléfono o aparato?
Si te preocupa la radiofrecuencia, hay varias medidas
simple s que puedes t omar para mi nimizar t u exposición
a la radiofrecuencia. Puedes, desde luego, reducir el
tiempo de tus llamadas. Puedes incrementar la distancia
entr e tu cuerpo y la fuent e de radiofre cuencia, ya que
el nivel d e exposición baja de ma nera muy considera ble
con la distancia. En el sit io de Internet de la FDA y la FCC
se afirma que “los paquetes de manos libres pueden ser
usados con los aparatos móviles para la comodid ad y el
confort. Estos sistemas reducen la absorción de ener gía
de radiofrecuencia e n la cabeza de bido a que el teléfono,
el cual e s una fuente d e emisiones d e radiofrec uencia, no
se utiliza pegado a la cabeza . Por otro lado, si el teléf ono
se encuentr a colocado a la al tura de la cin tura u otras
par tes del cuerpo dura nte el uso, entonces e sa parte
del cuerpo absorberá más energía de radiofrecuencia.
16
Se requiere qu e los teléfono s móviles comerciali zados
en EE.U U. cumplan co n los requisitos de seg uridad sin
importar si se usan pegados a la cabeza o al cuerpo.
Cualquier con figuración debe respetar el lími te de
seg uridad”.
Asimi smo, si usas tu apara to móvil mientras estás en
un aut o, puedes us ar un aparat o móvil con antena en el
exterior del vehículo. También deb es leer y segu ir las
instrucciones del fabricante de tu aparato móvil para la
utilización segura de tu aparato móvil.
¿Representan algún riesgo especial para los niños los
telefonos móviles?
En el sitio de Inter net de la FDA se af irma que “la
eviden cia científica no demuestra la existencia de
pelig ro alguno para los us uarios de telé fonos móviles
por expo si ción a radiofrecuencia, ni siquiera para niños
o adolescente s”. Además, en el mismo se afir ma que
“algunos grupos patrocinados por Gobiernos de otros
países han aconsejado que se disuada totalmente
a los niños de usar teléfon os móviles. Por ejemp lo,
en el Inf orme Stewar t del Reino Unido se hiz o esa
misma r ecomendación en diciembre d e 2000. En es te
informe un grupo de expertos independientes señaló
que no e xiste evide ncia de que el us o de teléfonos
móviles provoque la aparición de tumores cerebrales
17
u otros efectos perjudiciales. La recomendación del
Reino Unido de lim itar el uso de teléfonos móviles por
par te de niños era e strictamente p or precaución, no
estaba basada en evidencia científica de que existiera

Aviso: Evita una posible p érdida auditiva
La exposición p rolongada a s onidos fuertes (i ncluida la
música) es la caus a más común de p érdida audi tiva que
podría evitarse. Algunos estudios científicos sugie ren
que el us o de aparato s de audio por tátiles, co mo los
repro ductore s de música por tátiles y los t eléfonos
móviles, programados a un volumen alto durante un
tiempo prolongado, puede causar una pérdida auditiva
perm anente com o consecuencia del r uido. Esto in cluye
el uso de a uriculare s (incluidos a udífonos, Blueto oth® u
otros aparatos móviles). En algunos estudios también
se ha aso ciado la exposición a sonidos m uy altos con el
20
tinit us (zumbido e n el oído), hiper sensibilida d a sonidos
y audición distor sionada. La susceptibilidad individual
a la pérd ida auditiva provoc ada por el ruid o y otros
problemas potenciales de audición varía.
La can tidad de sonido prod ucida por un ap arato de aud io
portátil varía según la naturaleza del sonido, el aparato,
la programación del aparato y los auriculares. Al usar
cualq uier aparat o de audio por tátil, deberás se guir
algunas recomendaciones razonables:
• Programa el volumen en un ambiente tranquilo
y selecciona el volumen má s bajo que te per mita
escuchar de manera adecuada.
• C uando uses a uriculare s, baja el volum en si no
puedes escuchar a las personas que están hablando
cerca d e ti o si la person a sentada ju nto a ti puede
escuchar lo que tú estás escuchando.
• No subas el volumen para bloquear ambientes
rui dosos . Si quieres es cuchar alg o en tu aparato
por tátil en un ambiente r uidoso, usa a uriculare s
anti rruido par a bloquear el r uido de fondo ambien tal.
• L imita el tiemp o que estás es cuchando. A medida que
aume nta el volume n, se requiere menos tiempo p ara
que tu a udición resu lte afecta da.
21
• Evita el uso de auriculare s después de e star
expu esto a ruido s muy fuer tes, como concier tos
de rock , que podrían causar una p érdida audi tiva
temporal. Co n la pérdida au ditiva temporal, los
volúmenes peligrosos pueden sonarte como
normales.
• N o te exponga s a ningún niv el de volumen q ue te
provoque mole stia alguna. Si después de usar tu
apa rato d e audio portátil sientes zu mbidos en
los oídos, escuchas voces con un sonido apagado
o expe ri mentas al guna dificultad temporal en tu
audición, sus pende el uso y co nsulta con tu médico.
