described above to reduce your RF exposure from wireless phone use.

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

 

 

(RF) energy, the measures

S a fety

described above would apply to

children and teenagers using

 

 

wireless phones. Reducing the

 

 

time of wireless phone use and

 

 

increasing the distance between

 

 

the user and the RF source will

 

 

reduce RF exposure.

Some groups sponsored by other national governments have advised that children be discouraged from using wireless phones at all. For example, the

98government in the United

Kingdom distributed leaflets containing such a recommendation in December 2000. They noted that no evidence exists that using a wireless phone causes brain tumors or other ill effects. Their recommendation to limit wireless phone use by children was strictly precautionary; it was not based on scientific evidence that any health hazard exists.

11. What about wireless phone interference with medical equipment?

Radio Frequency (RF) energy from wireless phones can interact with some electronic devices. For this reason, the FDA helped develop a detailed test method to measure Electro Magnetic Interference (EMI) of implanted cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators from wireless telephones. This test method is
