Medical devices
Operation of radio transmitting equipment, including
wireless phones, may interfere with inadequately
shielded medical devices’ function. Consult a
physician or the medical device’s manufacturer to
determine if it is adequately shielded from external
radio energy.
Implanted medical devices
To avoid potential interference, manufacturers of
implanted medical devices recommend a minimum
separation of 6 inches (15.3 centimeters) between a
wireless device and the medical device. Persons who
have such devices should:
• Always keep the wireless device more than
6 inches (15.3 centimeters) from the medical
device.
• Turn the wireless device off if there is any reason
to suspect that interference is taking place.
• Follow the manufacturer directions for the
implanted medical device.
If you have any questions about using your wireless
device with an implanted medical device, consult
your health care provider.
Hearing
Warning:
When you use a headset or
earphones, your ability to hear outside sounds may
be affected. Do not use the headset where it can
endanger your safety.
To prevent possible hearing damage, do not listen
to audio at high volume levels for extended periods
of time.
