Safety Guidelines
the antenna affects call quality and may
cause the phone to operate at a higher
power level than otherwise needed.
Driving
Check the laws and regulations on the
use of wireless phones in the areas where
you drive. Always obey them. Also, if using
your phone while driving, please:
• Give full attention to driving - driving
safely is your first responsibility;
• Use hands-free operation, if available;
• Pull off the road and park before making
or answering a call if driving conditions
so require.

Electronic Devices

Most modern electronic equipment is
shielded from RF signals.
However, certain electronic equipment
may not be shielded against the RF
signals from your wireless phone.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers
Association recommends that a
minimum separation of six (6") inches
be maintained between a handheld
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 phone more
than six inches from their pacemaker
when the phone is turned ON;
• Should not carry the phone in a breast
pocket.
• Should use the ear opposite the
pacemaker to minimize the potential for
interference.
• If you have any reason to suspect that
interference is taking place, turn your
phone OFF immediately.

Hearing Aids

Some digital wireless phones may
interfere with some hearing aids. In the
event of such interference, you may want
to consult your service provider.

Other Medical Devices

If you use any other personal medical
device, consult the manufacturer of your
device to determine if they are adequately
shielded from external RF energy. Your
physician may be able to assist you in
obtaining this information.
