Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that
a minimum distance of 15 cm (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 and recommendations
of Wireless Technology Research. If you
have any reason to suspect that interference
is taking place, switch off your phone
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 off your phone in health care facilities
when regulations posted in these areas
instruct you to do so.
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
Switch off your phone in any facility where
posted notices require you to do so.
