Appendix B: Guide to Safe and 

Responsible Wireless Phone Use

Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association 

“Safety is the most 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 

*In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile

phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kilogram (W/kg) aver-

aged 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.
