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?
