Consumer Information on Wireless Phones

Section 14

Some groups sponsored by other national governments 
have advised that children be discouraged from using 
wireless phones at all.  For example, the government in the 
United Kingdom distributed leaflets containing such a 
recommendation in December 2000.  They noted that no 
evidence exists that using a wireless phone causes brain 
tumors or other ill effects.  Their recommendation to limit 
wireless phone use by children was strictly 
precautionary; it was not based on scientific evidence that 
any health hazard exists.

Do hands-free kits for wireless phones reduce risks from 
exposure to RF emissions?

Since there are no known risks from exposure to RF 
emissions from wireless phones, there is no reason to 
believe that hands-free kits reduce risks.  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.

Do wireless phone accessories that claim to shield the 
head from RF radiation work?

Since there are no known risks from exposure to RF 
emissions from wireless phones, there is no reason to
