Pacemakers and other medical devices
Persons with pacemakers should:
• ALWAYS keep the phone more than six (6)
inches from their pacemaker when the phone
is turned ON.
• Not carry the phone in a breast pocket.
• Use the ear opposite the pacemaker to
minimize the potential for RF interference.
• Turn the phone OFF immediately if there is any
indication that interference is taking place.
If you use any other personal medical device, consult your
physician or the manufacturer of your device to determine
if it is adequately shielded from external RF energy.
FCC Hearing aid compatibility (HAC)
Regulations for wireless devices
On July 10, 2003, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) Report and Order in WT Docket 01-309 modifi ed the
exception of wireless phones under the Hearing Aid Compatibility
Act of 1988 (HAC Act) to require digital wireless phones be
compatible with hearing aids. The intent of the HAC Act is to
ensure reasonable access to telecommunications services for
persons with hearing disabilities.
While using some wireless phones near some hearing devices
(hearing aids and cochlear implants), you 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.
