them. Observe the following guidelines when using

Electronic Devices

Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from
RF signals. However, certain equipment may not be
shielded against the RF signals from your wireless
phone.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association
recommends that a minimum separation of six inches
(6") be maintained between a handheld 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 ALWAYS keep the phone more than six
inches from their pacemaker when the phone is
turned ON
• should not carry the phone in a breast pocket
• should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to
minimize the potential for interference
• should turn the phone OFF immediately if you
have any reason to suspect that interference is
taking place
