Follow Safety Guidelines
Always follow the applicable rules and regulations in the area in which you are using
your device. Turn your device off in areas where its use is not allowed or when its
use may cause interference or other problems.
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio frequency (RF) signals.
However, inadequately shielded electronic equipment may be affected by the RF
signals generated by your device.
Medical and Life Support Equipment
Do not use your device in healthcare facilities or where medical life support
equipment is located as such equipment could be affected by your device’s external
RF signals.
Pacemakers
•
It is recommended to maintain a minimum separation of six inches between a RF
device and a pacemaker in order to avoid potential interference with the
pacemaker.
•
Persons with pacemakers should always follow these guidelines:
•
Always keep the device at least 6 inches away from a pacemaker when the device
is turned on.
•
Place your device on the opposite side of your body where your pacemaker is
implanted in order to add extra distance between the pacemaker and your device.
•
Avoid placing a device that is on next to a pacemaker (e.g., do not carry your device
in a shirt or jacket pocket that is located directly over the pacemaker).
•
If you are concerned or suspect for any reason that interference is taking place
with your pacemaker, turn your device OFF immediately.
