When used in the transmitting mode, even though the broadcast power is relatively low, you should take these additional
precautions:
Medical Devices - Pacemakers
The Advanced Medical Technology Association recommends that a minimum separation of 6 inches (15 cm) be
maintained between a handheld wireless radio and a pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the
independent research by, and recommendations of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
Persons with pacemakers should:
• ALWAYS keep the radio more than 6 inches (15 cm) from their pacemaker when
the radio is turned ON.
• Not carry the radio in the breast pocket.
• Use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference.
• Turn the radio OFF immediately if you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place.

shielded from RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.
