Electromagnetic Interference
Nearly every electronic device is susceptible to electromagnetic interference
(EMI) if inadequately shielded, designed, or otherwise con gured for
electromagnetic compatibility. Turn off your radio in any facility where posted
notices instruct you to do so. These facilities may include hospitals or health
care facilities that may be using equipment that is sensitive to external RF
energy.
• When instructed to do so, turn off your radios when on board an aircraft. Any
use of a RF device must be in accordance with applicable laws, regulations
and airline crew instructions.
• Some radios may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such
interference, you may want to consult your hearing aid manufacturer or
physician to discuss alternatives.
• 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
doctor or physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.
