Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers’ Association
recommends that a minimum separation of six (6”) inches
be maintained between a 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.
If you have a pacemaker:
• Always keep your PadFone mini 4.3 more than six
inches (15cm) from your pacemaker when turned on.
• Do not carry your PadFone mini 4.3 in your breast
pocket.
• Use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the
potential for interference.
• If you have any reason to suspect that interference
is taking place, switch off your PadFone mini 4.3
immediately.
Hearing aids
Some digital phones may interfere with some hearing aids.
In the event of such interference, call ASUS Customer
Service to discuss alternatives.
Other medical devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the
manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately
shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be
able to assist you in obtaining this information.
Turn your PadFone mini 4.3 off in healthcare facilities when
any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so.
Hospitals or healthcare facilities may be using equipment
that could be sensitive to external RF energy.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately
shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles. Check
with the manufacturer or its representative regarding your
vehicle. You should also consult the manufacturer of any
equipment added to your vehicle.
