ACEMAKERS
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation of six
inches be maintained between a handheld 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 phone more than six inches from their pacemaker when the
phone is turned ON.
●
Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket.
●
Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference. If
you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, turn your phone OFF
immediately.

When in any area with a potentially explosive environment, or where flammable materials are
present, cellular devices should be turned off and the user should obey all signs and
instructions. Electrical sparks in such areas may cause fire or an explosion, resulting in bodily
injury or even death. Users are advised not to use the equipment at refueling areas, such as
service or gas stations. Users are reminded of the need to observe restrictions on the use of
radio equipment in fuel depots, chemical plants, or where blasting operations are in progress.
Areas with a potentially explosive environment are often, but not always, clearly marked.
These include fueling areas, below deck on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities,
and areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders.
