Important Safety Information
Cell Phone Industry Actions
Although the existing scientific data do not
justify FDA regulatory actions, the FDA has
urged the cell phone industry to take a number
of steps, including the following:
●
Support-needed research on possible
biological effects of RF for the type of signal
emitted by cell phones;
●
Design cell phones in a way that minimizes
any RF exposure to the user; and
●
Cooperate in providing users of cell phones
with the current information on cell phone
use and human health concerns.
The FDA also is working with voluntary
standard-setting bodies such as the Institute of
Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), the
International Commission on Non-Ionizing
Radiation Protection (ICNIRP), and others to
assure that safety standards continue to
adequately protect the public.

Steps to Reduce Exposure to Radio Frequency
Energy
If there is a risk from being exposed to radio
frequency energy (RF) from cell phones - 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
