the backlight off and locks the touch screen by sensing when the phone is

near your ear. This extends battery life and prevents you from unintentionally

activating the touch screen during calls.

and touch screen functions. Do not cover the proximity sensor with screen

protectors or any other type of protective film. This could cause the sensor to

2. What is the FDA’s role concerning the safety of wireless phones?

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RadioFrequency(RF)energyatalevelthatishazardoustotheuser.

Insuchacase,the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doesnotjustifyFDAregulatoryactions,the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.

The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

• OccupationalSafetyandHealthAdministration

• NationalTelecommunicationsandInformationAdministration

TheNationalInstitutesofHealthparticipatesinsomeinteragencyworkinggroup

activities,aswell.

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.

TheFCCalsoregulatesthebasestationsthatthewirelessphonenetworksrelyupon.

101

For Your Safety

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

arethusnotthesubjectofthesafetyquestionsdiscussedinthisdocument.

3. What kinds of phones are the subject of this update?

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RadioFrequency(RF)energybecauseof

theshortdistancebetweenthephoneandtheuser’shead.

TheseRFexposuresarelimitedbyFCCsafetyguidelinesthatweredevelopedwith

theadviceoftheFDAandotherfederalhealthandsafetyagencies.Whenthephone

islocatedatgreaterdistancesfromtheuser,theexposuretoRFisdrasticallylower

becauseaperson’sRFexposuredecreasesrapidlywithincreasingdistancefrom

thesource.Theso-called“cordlessphones,”whichhaveabaseunitconnectedto

thetelephonewiringinahouse,typicallyoperateatfarlowerpowerlevels,andthus

produceRFexposuresfarbelowtheFCCsafetylimits.

4. What are the results of the research done already?

Theresearchdonethusfarhasproducedconflictingresults,andmanystudieshave

sufferedfromflawsintheirresearchmethods.Animalexperimentsinvestigatingthe

5. What research is needed to decide whether RF exposure from wireless

phones poses a health risk?

Acombinationoflaboratorystudiesandepidemiologicalstudiesofpeopleactually

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

7. How can I find out how much Radio Frequency energy exposure I can

get by using my wireless phone?

AllphonessoldintheUnitedStatesmustcomplywithFederalCommunications

8. What has the FDA done to measure the Radio Frequency energy coming

9. What steps can I take to reduce my exposure to Radio Frequency energy

from my wireless phone?

Ifthereisariskfromtheseproducts—andatthispointwedonotknowthatthere

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exposuretoRadioFrequency

Somegroupssponsoredbyothernationalgovernmentshaveadvisedthatchildrenbe

7.11 Warranty Laws

The following laws govern warranties that arise in retail sales of consumer goods:

• The California Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act [CC §§1790 et seq],

• The California Uniform Commercial Code, Division Two [Com C §§2101 et seq], and

• The federal Magnuson-Moss Warranty Federal Trade Commission Improvement Act [15 USC §§2301

et seq; 16 CFR Parts 701– 703]. A typical Magnuson-Moss Act warranty is a written promise that the

product is free of defects or a written promise to refund, repair, or replace defective goods. [See 15

USC §2301(6).] Remedies include damages for failing to honor a written warranty or service contract

or for violating disclosure provisions. [See 15 USC §2310(d).] Except for some labeling and disclosure

requirements, the federal Act does not preempt state law. [See 15 USC §2311.]

The Consumer Warranty Act does not affect the rights and obligations of parties under the state

Uniform Commercial Code, except the provisions of the Act prevail over provisions of the Commercial

Code when they conﬂ ict. [CC §1790.3.]

For purposes of small claims actions, this course will focus on rights and duties under the state laws.
