Safety Information
Electronic devices
Most modern electronic equipment 
is shielded from radio frequency (RF) 
signals. However, certain electronic 
equipment may not be shielded 
against the RF signals from your 
wireless phone.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturer’s 
Association recommends that a min-
imum separation of six inches (6”) 
be maintained between a handheld 
wireless phone and a pacemaker to 
avoid potential interference with the 
pacemaker. These recommenda-
tions are consistent with the inde-
pendent research by and recom-
mendations of Wireless Technology 
Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
• should ALWAYS keep the phone 
more than six inches from their 
pacemaker when the phone is 
turned ON;
• should not carry the phone in a 
breast pocket;
• should use the ear opposite the 
pacemaker to minimize the poten-
tial for interference;
• should turn the phone OFF imme-
diately if there is any reason to 
suspect that interference is taking 
place.
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may 
interfere with some hearing aids. In 
the event of such interference, you 
may want to consult your service 
provider or your hearing aid manu-
facturer to discuss alternatives.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medi-
cal devices, consult the manufactur-
ers of your devices to determine if 
they are adequately shielded from 
external RF energy. Your physician 
may be able to assist you in obtain-
ing this information.
Turn your phone OFF in health care 
facilities when any regulations post-
ed in these areas instruct you to do 
so. Hospitals or health care facilities 
may be using equipment that could 
be sensitive to external RF energy.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly 
installed or inadequately shielded 
electronic systems in motor vehi-
cles. Check with the manufacturer 
or its representative regarding your 
vehicle. You should also consult the 
manufacturer of any equipment that 
has been added to your vehicle.
Posted Facilities
Turn your phone OFF in any facility 
where posted notices so require.
