Samsung SCH-a630 Series User Manual page 148

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 your phone off immediately.
Hearing Aid Compatibility with Mobile Phones
When some mobile phones are used near some hearing
devices (hearing aids and cochlear implants), users may
detect a buzzing, humming, or whining noise. Some
hearing devices are more immune than others to this
interference noise, and phones also vary in the amount
of interference they generate.
The wireless telephone industry has developed ratings
for some of their mobile phones, to assist hearing
device users in finding phones that may be compatible
with their hearing devices. Not all phones have been
rated. Phones that are rated have the rating on their box
or a label on the box.
The ratings are not guarantees. Results will vary
depending on the user's hearing device and hearing
loss. If your hearing device happens to be vulnerable to
interference, you may not be able to use a rated phone
successfully. Trying out the phone with your hearing
device is the best way to evaluate it for your personal
needs.
