wireless phones in the areas where you drive.
Always obey them. Also, if using your phone
while driving, please:
]
Give full attention to driving - driving safely is
your first responsibility;
]
Use hands-free 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 electronic
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
(6') inches be maintained between a handheld
wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid
potential interference with the pacemaker.

inches from their pacemaker when the phone is
turned ON;
