metal and should position the device the above-stated distance from your body.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 above separation distance instructions are followed until the
transmission is completed.
Parts of the device are magnetic. Metallic materials may be attracted to the device. Do not
place credit cards or other magnetic storage media near the device, because information
stored on them may be erased.

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 you to do so. Hospitals or
health care facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.
Implanted medical devices
Manufacturers of medical devices recommend that a minimum separation of 15.3
centimetres (6 inches) should be maintained between a wireless device and an implanted
medical device, such as a pacemaker or implanted cardioverter defibrillator, to avoid
potential interference with the medical device. Persons who have such devices should:
• Always keep the wireless device more than 15.3 centimetres (6 inches) from the medical
device when the wireless device is turned on.
• Not carry the wireless device in a breast pocket.
• Hold the wireless device to the ear opposite the medical device to minimise the potential
for interference.
• Turn the wireless device off immediately if there is any reason to suspect that
interference is taking place.
• Read and follow the directions from the manufacturer of their implanted medical device.
If you have any questions about using your wireless device with an implanted medical
device, consult your health care provider.
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, and air bag systems. For more
