■ Medical devices
Operation of any radio transmitting equipment, including
wireless phones, may interfere with the functionality of
inadequately protected medical devices. Consult a physician or
the manufacturer of the medical device to determine if they are
adequately shielded from external RF energy or if you have any
questions. Switch off your device 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.
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum
separation of 15.3 centimeters (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 by and recommendations of Wireless
Technology Research. Persons with pacemakers should do the
following:
• Always keep the device more than 15.3 centimeters (6 inches)
from the pacemaker.
• Do not carry the device in a breast pocket.
• Hold the device to the ear opposite the pacemaker to
minimize the potential for interference.
