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 does
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 chil-
dren 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 children and
teenagers using wireless
phones. Reducing the
time of wireless phone
use and increasing the
