9. What steps can I take to reduce
my exposure to Radio Frequency
energy from my wireless phone?
If there is a risk from these products -
and at this point we do not know that
there is - it is probably very small. But if
you are concerned about avoiding even
potential risks, you can take a few simple
steps to minimize your exposure to Radio
Frequency (RF) energy. Since time is
a key factor in how much exposure a
person receives, reducing the amount of
time spent using a wireless phone will
reduce RF exposure. If you must conduct
extended conversations by wireless phone
every day, you could place more distance
between your body and the source of
the RF , since the exposure level drops off
dramatically with distance. For example,
you could use a headset and carry the
wireless phone away from your body
or use a wireless phone connected to
a remote antenna. Again, the scientific
data does not demonstrate that wireless
