—Warning to pacemaker wearers: 

Wireless phones, when in the ‘on’ position, have 
been shown to interfere with pacemakers. The 
phone should be kept at least six (6) inches away 
from the pacemaker to reduce risk.

The Health Industry Manufacturers Association and 
the wireless technology research community 
recommend that you follow these guidelines to 
minimize the potential for interference.
•

Always keep the phone at least six inches 
(15 centimeters) away from your pacemaker 
when the phone is turned on.

Do not carry your phone near your heart.

Use the ear opposite the pacemaker.

If you have any reason to suspect that 
interference is taking place, turn off your 
phone immediately.

—Some digital wireless phones may 

interfere with hearing aids. In the event of such 
interference, you may want to consult Virgin 
Mobile or call the customer service line to 
discuss alternatives.

—If you use any other 

personal medical device, consult the manufacturer 
of the device to determine if it is adequately 
shielded from external RF energy. Your physician 
may be able to help you obtain this information.

—Turn your phone off in 

health care facilities when instructed. Hospitals and 
health care facilities may be using equipment that is 
sensitive to external RF energy.

—Turn your phone off in any 

facility when posted notices require you to do so.

Aircraft—FCC regulations prohibit using your 
phone on a plane that is in the air. Turn your phone 
off before boarding aircraft.

—RF signals may affect improperly 

installed or inadequately shielded electronic 
systems in motor vehicles. Check with the 
manufacturer of the device to determine if it is 
adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your 
auto manufacturer may be able to help you obtain 
this information.

—Turn off your phone where 

blasting is in progress. Observe restrictions, and 
follow any regulations or rules.

—Turn off your 

phone when you are in any area with a potentially 
explosive atmosphere. Obey all signs and 
instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause 
an explosion or fire, resulting in bodily injury or 
death.Areas with a potentially explosive 
atmosphere are often, but not always, 
clearly marked.

They include:
•

fueling areas such as gas stations

below deck on boats

transfer or storage facilities for fuel or chemicals

vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas, such as 
propane or butane

areas where the air contains chemicals or 
particles such as grain, dust, or metal powders

any other area where you would normally be 
advised to turn off your vehicle engine

Use only in normal position (to ear). Avoid dropping, 
hitting, bending, or sitting on the phone.

Keep the phone dry. Damage can result if the 
phone gets wet. Water damage is not covered 
under warranty.
