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 before 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

causes brain tumors or other ill effects.
