Information on health
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) published
statements and questions and answers concerning mobile telephones and health. Microsoft Mobile encourages you
to visit these websites for updated information. You can access the FDA website at www.fda.gov/Radiation-
EmittingProducts/RadiationEmittingProductsandProcedures/HomeBusinessandEntertainment/CellPhones/
default.htm and the FCC website at transition.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety/rf-faqs.html. Additional health-related
information is available from the World Health Organization (WHO) at www.who.int/mediacentre/factsheets/fs193/
en/ and The National Cancer Institute ("NCI") www.cancer.gov/cancertopics/factsheet/Risk/cellphones. In the
event that you are concerned about possible health effects, the FDA suggests that you limit your own or your children’s
radio frequency (RF) exposure by limiting the length of calls or by using handsfree devices.
Vehicles
Radio signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in vehicles. For more
information, check with the manufacturer of your vehicle or its equipment.
Check regularly that all wireless device equipment in your vehicle is mounted and operating properly. Do not store or
carry flammable or explosive materials in the same compartment as the device, its parts, or accessories. Do not place
your device or accessories in the air bag deployment area.
Safety and texting while driving
Safety should be every driver’s first priority. Drivers must obey all local laws that may include restrictions on the use of
mobile telephones or accessories while driving. If use is legal, always keep your hands free to operate the vehicle while
driving and use a handsfree device whenever possible. Suspend calls in heavy traffic or hazardous weather. Get to know
your mobile phone and its features and make any necessary information inputs prior to driving. Do not input data or
engage in text messaging while driving. Mobile telephones should not be used when use may be a distraction to the
driver.
The Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association (CTIA) has published further info and tips on safe use of cellular
telephones at www.ctia.org/consumer_info/safety, which we encourage you to review.
