12safety and usage informationis located at greater distances from the user, theexposure to RF is drastically lower because aperson's RF exposure decreases rapidly withincreasing distance from the source. The so-called“cordless phones,” which have a base unitconnected to the telephone wiring in a house,typically operate at far lower power levels, and thusproduce RF exposures well within the FCC'scompliance limits.Do wireless phones pose a healthhazard?The available scientific evidence does not show thatany health problems are associated with usingwireless phones. There is no proof, however, thatwireless phones are absolutely safe. Wirelessphones emit low levels of radio frequency energy(RF) in the microwave range while being used. Theyalso emit very low levels of RF when in the stand-bymode. Whereas high levels of RF can producehealth effects (by heating tissue), exposure to lowlevel RF that does not produce heating effectscauses no known adverse health effects. Manystudies of low level RF exposures have not foundany biological effects. Some studies have suggestedthat some biological effects may occur, but suchfindings have not been confirmed by additionalresearch. In some cases, other researchers havehad difficulty in reproducing those studies, or indetermining the reasons for inconsistent results.
