Electro Magnetic Interference/
Compatibility
NOTE: Nearly every electronic device is susceptible to
electromagnetic interference (EMI) if inadequately
shielded, designed or otherwise configured for
electromagnetic compatibility.
Facilities
To avoid electromagnetic interference and/or compatibility
conflicts, turn off your radio product in any facility where posted
notices instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities
may be using equipment that is sensitive to external RF energy.
Aircraft
When instructed to do so, turn off your radio product when on
board an aircraft. Any use of a radio product must be in
accordance with applicable regulations per airline crew
instructions.
Medical Devices
Pacemakers
The Advanced Medical Technology Association (AdvaMed)
recommends that a minimum separation of 6 inches (15 cm) be
maintained between a handheld wireless radio product and a
pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with those of
the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
Persons with pacemakers should:
• ALWAYS keep the radio product more than 6 inches (15 cm)
from their pacemaker when the radio product is turned ON.
• Not carry the radio product in a breast pocket.
• Use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential
for interference.
• Turn the radio product OFF immediately if you have any
reason to suspect that interference is taking place.
