Medical Devices

Pacemakers
The Advanced Medical Technology Association recommends that a
minimum separation of 6 inches (15 centimeters) be maintained between
a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker. These recommendations
are consistent with the independent research by, and recommendations
of, the United States Food and Drug Administration.
Persons with pacemakers should:
• ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches (15 centimeters)
from your pacemaker when the phone is turned ON.
• NOT carry the phone in the breast pocket.
• use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for
interference.
• turn OFF the phone immediately if you have any reason to suspect
that interference is taking place.
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the
event of such interference, you may want to consult your hearing aid
manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of
your device to determine if it is adequately shielded from RF energy. Your
physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.
Safety and General Use While Driving
Check the laws and regulations on the use of phones in the area where
you drive. Always obey them.
When using your phone while driving, please:
• give full attention to driving and to the road.
• use hands-free operation, if available.
