Using Your Phone Near Other Electronic Devices
Section 14
Using Your Phone Near Other 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. Consult the 
manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum 
distance of 15 cm (6 inches) be maintained between a 
wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential 
interference with the pacemaker.
These recommendations are consistent with the 
independent research and recommendations of 
Wireless Technology Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
• 
should always keep the phone more than 15 cm (6 inches) 
from their pacemaker when the phone is switched on.
• 
should not carry the phone in a breast pocket.
• 
should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize 
potential interference.
If you have any reason to suspect that interference is 
taking place, switch your phone off immediately.
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some 
hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may 
wish to consult your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss 
alternatives.
