9. What steps can I take
to reduce my exposure
to radiofrequency
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
radiofrequency 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 scientifi c 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 scientifi c evidence
does not show a danger to
