Operating Environment

Remember to follow any special regulations in force
in any area and always switch your phone off
whenever it is forbidden to use it, or when it may
cause interference or danger.
When connecting the phone or any accessory to
another device, read its user's guide for detailed
safety instructions. Do not connect incompatible
products.
As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment,
users are advised that for the satisfactory operation
of the equipment and for the safety of personnel, it is
recommended that the equipment should only be
used in the normal operating position (held to your
ear with the antenna pointing over your shoulder if
you are using an external antenna).
Using Your Phone Near Other Electronic
Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from
radio frequency (RF) signals. However, certain
electronic equipment may not be shielded against the
RF signals from your wireless phone. Consult the
manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
Implantable Medical Devices
A minimum separation of six (6) inches should be
maintained between a handheld wireless phone and
an implantable medical device, such as a pacemaker
or implantable cardioverter defibrillator, to avoid
potential interference with the device.
Persons who have such devices:
Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six (6) inches
•
from their implantable medical device when the phone is
turned ON;
Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket;
•
Should use the ear opposite the implantable medical
•
device to minimize the potential for interference;
Should turn the phone OFF immediately if there is any
•
reason to suspect that interference is taking place;
Should read and follow the directions from the
•
manufacturer of your implantable medical device. If you
have any questions about using your wireless phone with
such a device, consult your health care provider.
