Safety
Guidelines
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.

1.Do
wireless
phones
pose
a
health
hazard?
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
standby
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.
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
radiofrequency
energy
(RF)
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
do
not
justify
FDA
regulatory
actions,
the
FDA
has
urged
the
wireless
phone
industry
to
take
a
number
of
steps,
