Limiting Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF)
Fields
For individuals concerned about limiting their exposure to
RF fields, the World Health Organization (WHO) provides
the following advice:
Precautionary measures: Present scientific information
does not indicate the need for any special precautions for
the use of mobile phones. If individuals are concerned,
they might choose to limit their own or their children’s RF
exposure by limiting the length of calls, or using ‘hands-
free’ devices to keep mobile phones away from the head
and body.
Further information on this subject can be obtained from
the WHO home page http://www.who.int/peh-emf (WHO
Fact sheet 193: June 2000).
Distractions
Driving
Full attention must be given to driving at all times in order to
reduce the risk of an accident. Using a phone while driving
(even with a hands-free kit) can cause distraction and lead
to an accident. You must comply with local laws and
regulations restricting the use of wireless devices while
driving.
