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 expo-
sure to radiofrequency energy (RF). Since time is a key
factor in how much exposure a person receives, reduc-
ing the amount of time spent using a wireless phone will
reduce RF exposure.
• If you must condict extended conversationsby wireless
phone every dey, you could place more distance
between your body and the source of the RF, since the
exposure level drops off dramatically with distamce.
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 wire-
less 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 radiofre-
quency 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.
