Operation of any radio transmitting equipment, including
wireless phones, may interfere with the functionality of inade-
quately 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 transmissions.

imum separation of 15.3 cm (6") be maintained between wire-
less devices 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
