Other Medical Devices
Operation of any radio transmitting equipment, including cellular
phones, may interfere with the functionality of inadequately 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 phone 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 energy.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded
electronic systems in motor vehicles (for example, electronic fuel
injection systems, electronic anti-skid (anti-lock) braking systems,
electronic speed control systems, air bag systems).
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
Switch your phone off in any facility where posted notices so require.

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 mobile phone.
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of 6
inches (20 cm) be maintained between a hand-held mobile phone 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:
●Should always keep the phone more than 6 inches (15 cm) 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 the potential
for interference.
If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place,
switch off your phone immediately.
Hearing Aids
Some digital mobile phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In
the event of such interference, you may want to consult your service
provider.
