Section 4A: Safety Guidelines
168
Following Safety Guidelines
To operate your phone safely and efficiently, always follow any special regulations in
a given area. Turn your phone off in areas where use is forbidden or when it may
cause interference or danger.
Magnetic Materials
Parts of the device are magnetic. Metallic materials may be attracted to the device,
and persons with a hearing aid should not hold the device to the ear with the
hearing aid. Always secure the device in its holder, because metallic materials may
be attracted by the earpiece. Do not place credit cards or other magnetic storage
media near the device, because information stored on them may be erased.
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 phone 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 energy
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend a distance of 15.3 cm be maintained
between a hand-held wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid interference with
the pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with independent research
and recommendations of Wireless Technology Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
䢇
Should always keep the phone at least 15.3 cm from their pacemaker when
the phone is turned on
䢇
Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket
䢇
Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for
interference
䢇
Should turn off the phone immediately if there is any reason to suspect that
interference is taking place
Using Your Phone Near Other Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radiofrequency (RF) signals.
However, RF signals from wireless phones may affect inadequately shielded
electronic equipment.
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic
operating systems and/or entertainment systems in motor vehicles. Check with the
manufacturer or their representative to determine if these systems are adequately
shielded from external RF signals. Also check with the manufacturer regarding any
equipment that has been added to your vehicle.
Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices, such as pacemakers and
hearing aids, to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF signals.
