affected.
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommended that a minimum of 15cm (6 inches) be maintained between a handheld
wireless device and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations are
consistent with independent research and recommendations by Wireless Technology Research.
Persons with Pacemakers:
• Should ALWAYS keep the device more than 15cm (6 inches) from their pacemaker when turned ON.
• Should not carry the device in a breast pocket.
• Should use the ear furthest from the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference.
If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, turn OFF your device.
