conditions. These devices may include, but are not limited to:
wireless LAN (WLAN), Bluetooth and/or 3G.
Remember to follow any special regulations in force in any area, and always switch
off your device when its use is prohibited or when it may cause interference or
danger. Use the device only in its normal operating positions. This device meets RF
exposure guidelines when used normally, and it and its antenna are positioned at
least 1.5 centimeters (5/8 inches) away from your body. It should not contain metal
and you should position the device the above-stated distance from your body. To
successfully transmit data files or messages, this device requires a good quality
connection to the network. In some cases, transmission of data files or messages
may be delayed until such a connection is available. Ensure that the above
separation distance instructions are followed until the transmission is completed.
Parts of the device are magnetic. Metallic materials may be attracted to the device,
and persons with hearing aids should not hold the device to the ear with the hearing
aid. Do not place credit cards or other magnetic storage media near the device,

Medical devices
Operation of any radio transmitting equipment, including wireless phones, may
interfere with the functionality of inadequately protected medical devices. Consult a
physician or the manufacturer of the medical device to determine if they are
adequately shielded from external RF energy or if you have any questions. Switch
off your device in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these areas
instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that
could be sensitive to external RF transmissions.
Pacemakers.
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of
15.3 centimeters (6 inches) be maintained between wireless devices and a pacemaker
to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations are
consistent with the independent research by and recommendations of Wireless
Technology Research. Persons with pacemakers should do the following:
•
Always keep the device more than 15.3 centimeters (6 inches) from the
pacemaker
