Safety head because the phone, which is the source of the RF emissions, will not be placed against the head. On the other hand, if the phone is mounted against the waist or other part of the body during use, then that part of the body will absorb more RF energy. Wireless phones marketed in the U.S. are required to meet safety requirements regardless of whether they are used against the head or against the body. Either configuration should result in compliance with the safety limit." Also, if you use your wireless phone while in a car, you can use a phone with an antenna on the outside of the vehicle. You should also read and follow your wireless phone manufacturer's instructions for the safe operation of your phone. Do wireless phones pose any special risks to children? The FDA/FCC website states that "the scientific evidence does not show a danger to users of wireless communication devices, including children." The FDA/FCC website further states that "some groups sponsored by other national governments have advised that children be discouraged from using wireless phones at all". For example, the Stewart Report from the United Kingdom ["UK"] made such a recommendation in December 2000. In this report a group of independent experts noted that no evidence exists that using a cell phone causes brain tumors or other ill effects. [The UK's] recommendation to limit cell phone use by children was strictly precautionary; it was not based on scientific evidence that any health hazard exists. A copy of the UK's leaflet is available at http://www.dh.gov.uk (search "mobile"), or you can write to: NRPB, Chilton, Didcot, Oxon OX11 ORQ, United Kingdom.

Do wireless phones pose any
special risks to children?
The FDA/FCC website states that
“the scientific evidence does not
show a danger to users of wireless
communication devices, including
children.” The FDA/FCC website
further states that “some groups
sponsored by other national
governments have advised that
children be discouraged from using
wireless phones at all”. For example,
the Stewart Report from the United
Kingdom [“UK”] made such a
recommendation in December
2000. In this report a group of
independent experts noted that no
evidence exists that using a cell
phone causes brain tumors or other
ill effects. [The UK’s]
recommendation to limit cell phone
use by children was strictly
precautionary; it was not based on
scientific evidence that any health
hazard exists. A copy of the UK’s
leaflet is available at
“mobile”), or you can write to:

the UK’s annual reports on mobile
phones and RF are available online
at www.iegmp.org.uk and

to reduce their children’s RF
exposure may choose to restrict
their children’s wireless phone use.
