For Your Safety
the consistency of measurements made at different
laboratories on the same tablet. SAR is the measurement
of the amount of energy absorbed in tissue, either by the
whole body or a small part of the body. It is measured in
watts/kg (or milliwatts/g) of matter. This measurement is
used to determine whether a tablet complies with safety
guidelines.
9. What steps can I take to reduce my exposure to
Radio Frequency energy from my tablet?
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 tablet will
reduce RF exposure. If you must conduct extended
32
conversations using a wireless device 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 tablet away from your body or
use a wireless device connected to a remote antenna.
Again, the scientific data does not demonstrate that
tablets are harmful. But if you are concerned about the
RF exposure from these products, you can use measures
like those described above to reduce your RF exposure
from tablet use.
10. What about children using tablets?
The scientific evidence does not show a danger to users
of tablets, including children and teenagers. If you want
to take steps to lower exposure to Radio Frequency (RF)
energy, the measures described above would apply to
children and teenagers using tablets. Reducing the time
