Pacemakers: Consult a physician or the manufacturer of your pacemaker if
you have any questions regarding the effect of radio frequency signals on
your pacemaker. Verify that you are using your BlackBerry device in
accordance with the safety requirements associated with your particular
pacemaker, which might include the following requirements:
• Always keep your BlackBerry device more than 7.88 inches (20
cm) from the pacemaker when your BlackBerry device is turned
on.
• Do not carry your BlackBerry device in your breast pocket.
• When using the phone on your BlackBerry device, use the ear
opposite the pacemaker for making and receiving calls to
minimize the potential interference.
• If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking
place, turn off all wireless connections on your BlackBerry device
immediately. Stop using your BlackBerry device and consult a
physician.
Hearing aids: Some digital wireless devices might interfere with some
hearing aids. In the event of such interference, consult your wireless service
provider or contact the manufacturer of your hearing aid to discuss
alternatives.
Your BlackBerry device includes a magnetometer, which is used by
applications such as the Compass application. If an application that uses the
magnetometer causes interference with your hearing aid, close the
application.
