Introduction
The precautions detailed here conform to the
guidelines drawn up by the Electromagnetic
Compatibility Conference Japan, regarding the
protection of electronic medical equipment
from signals emitted by mobile phones.
Observe the following in hospitals or
other medical facilities.
Do not take your FOMA terminal into operating
rooms, ICUs (Intensive Care Units) or CCUs
(Coronary Care Units).
Turn off your FOMA terminal inside hospital wards.
Turn off your FOMA terminal even when you are in
an area outside hospital wards, such as a hospital
lobby, since electronic medical equipment may be in
use nearby.
Where a medical facility has specific instructions
prohibiting the carrying and use of mobile phones,
observe those instructions strictly.
If auto power on function is set to on, disable this
function before turning off your mobile phone.
Turn off your FOMA terminal in
crowded places such as rush-hour
trains in case somebody nearby is
using an implanted cardiac
pacemaker or implanted
cardioverter-defibrillator.
Electromagnetic signals may have harmful effects on
the operation of implanted cardiac pacemakers and
implanted cardioverter-defibrillators.
If you have electric medical
equipments such as an implanted
cardiac pacemaker or an implanted
cardioverter-defibrillator, always
carry or use your FOMA terminal at
least 22 cm away from your implant.
Electromagnetic signals may have harmful effects on
the operation of the electric medical equipments.
Patients receiving medical treatment
away from a hospital or medical facility
(e.g. home treatment) who are using
electronic medical equipment other than
implanted cardiac pacemakers or
implanted cardioverter-defibrillators
should consult the respective
manufacturers for information regarding
the effects of signals on the equipment.
Electromagnetic signals may have harmful effects on
the operation of electronic medical equipment.
