ADDITIONAL SAFETY INFORMATION
Operating environment
Remember to follow any special regulations in force in any
area and always switch off your device when its use is
prohibited or when it may cause interference or danger. Use
the device only in its normal operating positions.
This device meets RF exposure guidelines when used either in
the normal use position against the ear or when positioned at
least 7/8 inch (2.2 cm) away from the body. When a carry
case, belt clip, or holder is used for body-worn operation, it
should not contain metal and should position the device at
least 7/8 inch (2.2 cm) away from your body.
In order to transmit data files or messages, this device
requires a quality connection to the network. In some cases,
transmission of data files or messages may be delayed until
such a connection is available. Ensure the aboveseparation
distance instructions are followed until the transmission is
completed.
Medical devices
Operation of any radio transmitting equipment, including
wireless phones, may interfere with the functionality of
inadequately protected medical devices. Consult a physician
or the manufacturer of the medical device to determine if
they are adequately shielded from external RF energy or if you
have any questions. Switch off your device in health care
facilities when any regulations posted in these areas instruct
134
you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using
equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.
Pacemakers:
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a
minimum separation of 6 in. (15.3 cm) be maintained between
a wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential
interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations are
consistent with the independent research by and
recommendations of Wireless Technology Research. Persons
with pacemakers should:
• always keep the device more than 6 in. (15.3 cm) from their
pacemaker when the device is switched on;
• not carry the device in a breast pocket; and
• hold the device to the ear opposite the pacemaker to
minimise the potential for interference.
If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking
place, switch off your device immediately.
Hearing aids:
Some digital wireless devices may interfere
with some hearing aids. If interference occurs, consult your
service provider.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately
shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles such as
electronic fuel injection systems, electronic antiskid (antilock)
braking systems, electronic speed control systems, air bag
systems. For more information, check with the manufacturer
