inadequately protected medical
devices. Consult a physician or the
manufacturer of the medical device to
determine whether they are
adequately shielded from external RF
energy. Switch off your device when
regulations posted instruct you to do
so. Hospitals or health care facilities
may use equipment sensitive to
external RF energy.
Implanted medical devices
Manufacturers of medical devices
recommend a minimum separation of
15.3 centimeters (6 inches) 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 centimeters (6
inches) from the medical device.

• Turn the wireless device off if there
is any reason to suspect that
interference is taking place.
• Follow the manufacturer directions
for the implanted medical device.
If you have any questions about using
your wireless device with an implanted
medical device, consult your health
care provider.

interfere with some hearing aids.

installed or inadequately shielded
