Consumer Information About Radio Frequency Emissions
Your wireless device, 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 devices.
Are wireless devices safe?
Scientific research on the subject of wireless devices and radio frequency (“RF”) energy
has been conducted worldwide for many years, and continues. In the United States, the
Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) and the Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”)
set policies and procedures for wireless devices. The FDA issued a website publication on
health issues related to device usage where it states, The scientific community at large
… believes that the weight of scientific evidence does not show an association between
exposure to radiofrequency (RF) from the devices and adverse health outcomes. Still the
scientific community does recommend conducting additional research to address gaps
in knowledge. That research is being conducted around the world and FDA continues to
monitor developments in this field. You can access the joint FDA/FCC website at http://
www.fda.gov (under “C” in the subject index, select Cell Phones > Research). You can also
contact the FDA toll-free at (888) 463-6332 or (888) INFO-FDA. In June 2000, the FDA entered
into a cooperative research and development agreement through which additional scientific
