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 energy (RF). 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.

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 energy (RF), the measures 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 government 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
