agencies.  When the phone is located at greater distances 
from the user, the exposure to RF is drastically lower 
because a person's RF exposure decreases rapidly with 
increasing distance from the source.  The so-called 
"cordless phones," which have a base unit connected to 
the telephone wiring in a house, typically operate at far 
lower power levels, and thus produce RF exposures well 
within the FCC's compliance limits.

Do wireless phones pose a health hazard?

The available scientific evidence does not show that any 
health problems are associated with using wireless 
phones.  There is no proof, however, that wireless phones 
are absolutely safe.  Wireless phones emit low levels of 
radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range 
while being used.  They also emit very low levels of RF 
when in the stand-by mode.  Whereas high levels of RF 
can produce health effects (by heating tissue), exposure 
to low level RF that does not produce heating effects 
causes no known adverse health effects.  Many studies of 
low level RF exposures have not found any biological 
effects.  Some studies have suggested that some 
biological effects may occur, but such findings have not 
been confirmed by additional research.  In some cases, 
other researchers have had difficulty in reproducing 
those studies, or in determining the reasons for 
inconsistent results.

What is FDA's role concerning the safety of wireless 
phones?

Under the law, FDA does not review the safety of 
radiation-emitting consumer products such as wireless
