Safety

9. What steps can I take to reduce my exposure to Radio Frequency energy from my wireless phone?

 

 

If there is a risk from these

 

 

products — and at this point we

 

 

do not know that there is — it is

 

 

probably very small. But if you

 

 

are concerned about avoiding

 

 

even potential risks, you can take

 

 

a few simple steps to minimize

 

 

your exposure to Radio

Frequency (RF) energy. Since

time is a key factor in how much

 

 

exposure a person receives,

 

 

reducing the amount of time

 

 

spent using a wireless phone will

 

 

reduce RF exposure. If you must

 

 

conduct extended conversations

 

 

by wireless phone every day, you

 

 

could place more distance

 

 

between your body and the

 

 

source of the RF, since the

 

 

exposure level drops off

 

 

dramatically with distance. For

example, you could use a headset and carry the wireless phone away from your body or use a wireless phone connected to a remote antenna. Again, the scientific data do not demonstrate that wireless phones are harmful. But if you are concerned about the RF exposure from these products, you can use measures like those 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 described above would apply to
