Can I minimize my RF exposure?
If you are concerned about RF, there are
several simple steps you can take to minimize
your RF exposure. You can, of course, reduce
your talk time. You can place more distance
between your body and the source of the RF,
as the exposure level drops off dramatically
with distance. The FDA/FCC website states
that "hands-free kits can be used with
wireless phones for convenience and comfort.
These systems reduce the absorption of
RF energy in the head because the phone,
which is the source of the RF emissions, will
not be placed against the head. On the other
hand, if the phone is mounted against the
waist or other part of the body during use,
then that part of the body will absorb more
RF energy. Wireless phones marketed in the
U.S. are required to meet safety requirements
regardless of whether they are used
against the head or against the body. Either
configuration should result in compliance with
the safety limit."Also, if you use your wireless
phone while in a car, you can use a phone
with an antenna on the outside of the vehicle.
You should also read and follow your wireless
phone manufacturer's instructions for the safe
operation of your phone.
