Restricting Children’s Access to Your Device

Your device is not a toy. Do not allow children to play with it
because they could hurt themselves and others, damage the
device, or use services that increase your device bill.

Keep the device and all its parts and accessories out of the
reach of small children.

The scientific evidence does not show a danger to any users of
cell phones from RF exposure, including children and
teenagers. The steps adults can take to reduce RF exposure
apply to children and teenagers as well.

Ⅲ

Reduce the amount of time spent on the cell phone;

Ⅲ

Use speaker mode or a headset to place more distance
between the head and the cell phone.

Some groups sponsored by other national governments have
advised that children be discouraged from using cell phones at
all. For example, The Stewart Report from the United Kingdom
made such a recommendation in December 2000. In this
report, a group of independent experts noted that no evidence
exists that using a cell phone causes brain tumors or other ill

effects. Their recommendation to limit cell phone use by
children was strictly precautionary; it was not based on
scientific evidence that any health hazard exists. Additional
information on the safety of RF exposures from various sources
can be obtained from the following organizations (updated 1/1/
