Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded
from RF signals. However, certain electronic
equipment may not be shielded against the
RF signals from your wireless phone.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association
recommends that a minimum separation
of six (6) 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 (6) 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;
• Should turn the phone OFF immediately
if there is any reason to suspect that
interference is taking place.
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere
with some hearing aids. In the event of such
interference, you may want to consult your
service provider (or call the customer service
line to discuss alternatives).
