recommendations are consistent with the independent
research by and recommendations of Wireless Tech-
nology Research.
Persons with pacemaker:
• Should always keep the phone more than 20 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 min-
imize the potential for interference.
• 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 want to consult your service provider.
Other Medical Devices
Operation of any radio transmitting equipment, in-
cluding cellular phones, may interfere with the func-
tionality 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 phone 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 ener-
gy.

Vehicles

RF signals may affect improperly installed or inade-
quately shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles
(e.g. electronic fuel injection systems, electronic anti-
skid (anti-lock) braking systems, electronic speed con-
trol systems, air bag systems).
Check with the manufacturer or its representative re-
garding your vehicle. You should also consult the man-
ufacturer of any equipment that has been added to
your vehicle.

Posted Facilities
Switch your phone off in any facility where posted no-
tices so require.
Potentially Explosive
Atmospheres
Switch off your phone when in any area with a poten-
tially explosive atmosphere and obey all signs and in-
structions. Sparks in such areas could cause an
explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even
death.
Users are advised to switch off the phone when at a re-
fuelling point (service station). Users are reminded of
the need to observe restrictions on the use of radio
equipment in fuel depots (fuel storage and distribution
areas), chemical plants or where blasting operations
are in progress.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are of-
ten but not always clearly marked. They include below
deck on boats; chemical transfer or storage facilities;
vehicles using liquified petroleum gas (such as propane
or butane); areas where the air contains chemicals or
particles, such as grain, dust or metal powders; and any
other area where you would normally be advised to
turn off your vehicle engine.
Vehicles
Only qualified personnel should service the phone, or
install the phone in a vehicle. Faulty installation or ser-
vice may be dangerous and may invalidate any warran-
ty which may apply to the unit.
Check regularly that all wireless phone equipment in
your vehicle is mounted and operating properly.
Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases or explo-
sive materials in the same compartment as the phone,
its parts or accessories.
For vehicles equipped with an air bag, remember that
an air bag inflates with great force. Do not place ob-
jects, including both installed or portable wireless
equipment in the area over the air bag or in the air bag
deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is
improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious in-
jury could result.
