Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of 6 in. (15.3 cm) be
maintained between a wireless phone 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:
•
always keep the device more than 6 in. (15.3 cm) from their pacemaker when the
device is switched on;
•
not carry the device in a breast pocket; and
•
hold the device to the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimise the potential for
interference.
If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, switch off your
device immediately.
Hearing aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. If interference
occurs, consult your service provider.
Posted facilities
Switch your device off in any facility where posted notices so require.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems
in motor vehicles such as electronic fuel injection systems, electronic antiskid (antilock)
braking systems, electronic speed control systems, air bag systems. For more
information, check with the manufacturer or its representative of your vehicle or any
equipment that has been added.
Only qualified personnel should service the device, or install the device in a vehicle.
Faulty installation or service may be dangerous and may invalidate any warranty that
may apply to the device. Check regularly that all device equipment in your vehicle is
mounted and operating properly. Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases, or
explosive materials in the same compartment as the device, its parts, or
enhancements. For vehicles equipped with an air bag, remember that air bags inflate
with great force. Do not place objects, including installed or portable wireless
equipment in the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. If in-vehicle
wireless equipment is improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious injury could
result.
