The FDA also is working with voluntary standard-setting bodies such as the Institute of Electrical and 
Electronics Engineers (IEEE), the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection 
(ICNIRP), and others to assure that safety standards continue to adequately protect the public.
Reducing Exposure: Hands‑Free Kits and Other Accessories
Steps to Reduce Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy
If there is a risk from being exposed to radio frequency energy (RF) from cell phones - 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 RF exposure.
 
● Reduce the amount of time spent using your cell phone;
 
● Use speaker mode or a headset to place more distance between your head and the cell 
phone.
Hands-Free Kits
Hands-free kits may include audio or Bluetooth® headsets and various types of body-worn accessories 
such as belt-clips and holsters. Combinations of these can be used to reduce RF energy absorption 
from cell phones.
Headsets can substantially reduce exposure because the phone is held away from the head in the user’s 
hand or in approved body-worn accessories. Cell phones marketed in the U.S. are required to meet RF 
exposure compliance requirements when used against the head and against the body.
Because there are no known risks from exposure to RF emissions from cell phones, there is no reason 
to believe that hands-free kits reduce risks. Hands-free kits can be used for convenience and comfort. 
They are also required by law in many states if you want to use your phone while driving.
Cell Phone Accessories that Claim to Shield the Head from RF Radiation
Because there are no known risks from exposure to RF emissions from cell phones, there is no reason 
to believe that accessories which claim to shield the head from those emissions reduce risks. Some 
products that claim to shield the user from RF absorption use special phone cases, while others involve 
nothing more than a metallic accessory attached to the phone. 
Studies have shown that these products generally do not work as advertised. Unlike “hands-free” kits, 
these so-called “shields” may interfere with proper operation of the phone. The phone may be forced to 
boost its power to compensate, leading to an increase in RF absorption.
Children and Cell Phones
The scientific evidence does not show a danger to any users of cell phones from RF exposure, including 
children and teenagers. The steps adults can take to reduce RF exposure apply to children and teenagers 
as well.
 
● Reduce the amount of time spent on the cell phone;
 
● Use speaker mode or a headset to place more distance between the head and the cell 
phone.
Some groups sponsored by other national governments have advised that children be discouraged 
from using cell phones at all. For example, The Stewart Report from the United Kingdom 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. Their recommendation 
to limit cell phone use by children was strictly precautionary; it was not based on scientific evidence that 
any health hazard exists.
