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 seat belts 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.
*In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones used by the public is 1.6
watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a sub-
stantial ma gin of safety togive additional protection for the public and to account for any
variations in measurements.
