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 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 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.
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 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.
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 December 2000. They noted that no evidence exists 
that using a wireless phone causes brain tumors or other ill effects. Their 
recommendation to limit wireless phone use by children was strictly
