ELECTRONIC DEVICES

Your wireless handheld portable telephone is a low power radio transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it receives
and also sends out radio frequency (RF) signals. Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF energy.
However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals from your wireless phone.
Therefore, use of your phone must be restricted in certain situations.
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:
• ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches from your pacemaker when the phone is turned on.
• Do not carry the phone in a breast pocket.
• 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.

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).

OTHER MEDICAL DEVICES

If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if they are
adequately shielded from external RF energy.
Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information. Turn your phone OFF in healthcare facilities
when any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or healthcare 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

Turn your phone OFF where posted notices so require.

OTHER SAFETY GUIDELINES

AIRCRAFT
FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while in the air. Turn your phone OFF before boarding an aircraft. Always
request and obtain prior consent and approval of an authorized airline representative before using your phone aboard
an aircraft.
Always follow the instructions of the airline representative whenever using your phone aboard an aircraft, to prevent
any possible interference with airborne electronic equipment.
