Mobile Configuration
Do not operate your mobile telephone when a person is within 8 inches (20 centimeters) of the
antenna. A person or object within 8 inches (20 centimeters) of the antenna could impair call
quality and may cause the phone to operate at a higher power level than necessary and expose
that person to RF energy in excess of that established by the FCC RF Exposure Guidelines.
Driving
Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless telephones in the areas where you drive.
Always obey them. Observe the following guidelines when using your phone while driving.
Give full attention to driving--driving safely is your first responsibility.
•
Use hands-free phone operation, if available.
•
Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions so
•
require.
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 6
inches (15 centimeters) be maintained between a wireless phone's antenna 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 6 inches (15 centimeters) from their
•
pacemaker when the phone is turned ON
should turn the phone OFF immediately if you have any reason to suspect that interference
•
is taking place
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 external RF energy. Your physician may be able to
assist you in obtaining this information.
Turn your phone OFF 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 energy.
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 ad ded to your vehicle.
