Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from
radio frequency (RF) signals. However, certain
electronic equipment may not be shielded against
the RF signals from your wireless phone. Consult the
manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a
minimum distance of 15 cm (6 inches) be maintained
between a wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid
potential interference with the pacemaker. These
recommendations are consistent with the
independent research and recommendations of
Wireless Technology Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
• Should always keep the phone more than 15 cm (6
inches) from their pacemaker when the phone is
switched on
• Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket
• Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to
minimize potential interference
If you have any reason to suspect that interference is
taking place, switch off your phone immediately.
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with
some hearing aids. In the event of such interference,
you may wish to consult your hearing aid
manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical devices,
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. Switch off your phone in health care
facilities when any regulations posted in these areas
instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care
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 that has been added to your vehicle.
Posted Facilities
Switch off your phone in any facility where posted
notices require you to do so.
