Precautions for users of
implanted cardiac pacemakers
Cardiac pacemakers (applies only to
digital cordless telephones):
Wireless Technology Research, LLC
(WTR), an independent research entity,
led a multidisciplinary evaluation of the
interference between portable wireless
telephones and implanted cardiac
pacemakers. Supported by the U.S.
Food and Drug Administration, WTR
recommends to physicians that:
Pacemaker patients
• Should keep wireless telephones at
least six inches from the pacemaker.
• Should NOT place wireless telephones
directly over the pacemaker, such as in
a breast pocket, when it is turned ON.
• Should use the wireless telephone at
the ear opposite the pacemaker.
WTR's evaluation did not identify any
risk to bystanders with pacemakers
from other persons using wireless
telephones.
About cordless telephones
• Privacy: The same features that make
a cordless telephone convenient
create some limitations. Telephone
calls are transmitted between the
telephone base and the cordless
handset by radio waves, so there is a
possibility that the cordless telephone
conversations could be intercepted
by radio receiving equipment within
range of the cordless handset. For
this reason, you should not think of
cordless telephone conversations as
being as private as those on corded
telephones.
• Electrical power: The telephone
base of this cordless telephone must
be connected to a working electrical
outlet. The electrical outlet should not
be controlled by a wall switch. Calls
cannot be made from the cordless
handset if the telephone base is
unplugged, switched off or if the
electrical power is interrupted.
• Potential TV interference: Some
cordless telephones operate
at frequencies that may cause
interference to televisions and
VCRs. To minimize or prevent
such interference, do not place
the telephone base of the cordless
telephone near or on top of a TV or
VCR. If interference is experienced,
moving the cordless telephone farther
away from the TV or VCR often
