Health and Safety Information
119
As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, users are advised
that for the satisfactory operation of the equipment and for the safety
of personnel, it is recommended that the equipment should only be
used in the normal operating position (held to your ear with the
antenna pointing over your shoulder).
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio frequency
(RF) signals. However, certain electronic equipment may not be
shielded against the RF signals from your wireless phone. Consult
the manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum distance of
15 cm (6 inches) be maintained between a wireless phone and a
pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These
recommendations are consistent with the independent research and
recommendations of Wireless Technology Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
♦
should always keep the phone more than 15 cm (6 inches) from
their pacemaker when the phone is switched on.
♦
should not carry the phone in a breast pocket.
♦
should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize potential
interference.
If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place,
switch your phone off immediately.
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids.
In the event of such interference, you may wish to consult your
hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
