Wi-Fi Router Use & Electronic
Medical Equipment
This section based on "Guidelines on the Use of Radio
Communications Equipment such as Cellular Telephones
and Safeguards for Electronic Medical Equipment"
(Electromagnetic Compatibility Conference) and "Report
of Investigation of the Effects of Radio Waves on Medical
equipment, etc." (Association of Radio Industries and
Business, March 2001).
Persons with an implanted pacemaker or
defibrillator should keep Wi-Fi router at least
15 cm away from the device.
Radio waves may interfere with implanted pacemakers or
defibrillators.
When using electronic medical equipment
(other than implanted cardiac pacemakers/
defibrillators) outside medical facilities,
check with the equipment manufacturer for
information about the effects of radio waves.
Wi-Fi router radio waves may affect electronic medical
equipment.
Wi-Fi router radio waves may affect
electronic medical equipment. Observe these
guidelines in medical institutions:
・ Do not take Wi-Fi router into operating rooms, or
intensive or coronary care units.
・ Keep Wi-Fi router turned off in hospital wards.
・ Even in lobbies or other places where Wi-Fi router use is
permitted, keep Wi-Fi router off near electronic medical
equipment.
・ Follow medical facility rules and do not use or bring Wi-
Fi router into prohibited areas.
Power off Wi-Fi router when it is difficult to
keep distance from others for at least 15
cm such as in a crowd because there may
be someone who is wearing an implanted
pacemaker or defibrillator.
Radio waves may interfere with implanted pacemakers or
defibrillators causing such devices to malfunction.

General Notes

router or related hardware may become too hot to touch,
leading to burn injuries, etc.
・ Wi-Fi router may become hot while in use or while charging
for a long period, especially in high temperatures. Prolonged
contact with skin may cause low-temperature burn injuries.
Do Not Disturb Others
・ Keep Wi-Fi router turned off in aircraft.
May cause radio wave interference with aircraft operations.
The use of portable electronic devices such as cellular
phones aboard aircraft is prohibited by law and subject to
penalty.
・ Do not use Wi-Fi router in a prohibited area such as a
hospital or research laboratory. Medical equipment etc.
might be affected.
・ Do not use Wi-Fi router near courtesy seats in train or bus.
Medical devices such as pacemaker etc. might be affected.
・ Do not use Wi-Fi router if thunder is heard while outdoors
(golf course, etc.).
