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 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 your phone
off 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.
