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.
Do wireless phones pose any special risks to children?
The FDA/FCC website states that "the scientific evidence does not show a danger to
users of wireless communication devices, including children."The FDA/FCC website
further states that "some groups sponsored by other national governments have
advised that children be discouraged from using wireless phones at all". For example,
the Stewart Report from the United Kingdom ["UK"] 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. [The UK's]
recommendation to limit cell phone use by children was strictly precautionary; it was
not based on scientific evidence that any health hazard exists. A copy of the UK's leaflet
is available at http://www.dh.gov.uk (search "mobile"), or you can write to: NRPB,
Chilton, Didcot, Oxon OX11 ORQ, United Kingdom. Copies of the UK's annual reports
on mobile phones and RF are available online at www.iegmp.org.uk and http://www.
hpa.org.uk/radiation/ (search "mobile"). Parents who wish to reduce their children's RF
exposure may choose to restrict their children's wireless phone use.
Where can I get further information about RF emissions?
