How Do I Turn Off the CardioMessenger?

Since the CardioMessenger contains a mobile ("cellular") module, you may need to switch off the

CardioMessenger for safety reasons in areas where the use of mobile phones is prohibited (e.g., in an

airplane).

Such areas can be identified by the following or similar signs:

Press and hold the blue key on the right of the CardioMessenger for two seconds until the display turns

off.

The blue key is labeled with the following symbol:

WARNING

If the CardioMessenger is turned off for a longer period of time, data may get lost.

• Turn on the CardioMessenger once you are leaving the area where the use of mobile phones

is prohibited.

In some locations, the use of cellular phones is prohibited to provide quiet zones (e.g., in a theater or

cinema). As the CardioMessenger is silent, it does not need to be turned off in such locations

The functions of your implanted device are not affected by the CardioMessenger at any time.

Your implanted device remains fully functional even if the CardioMessenger is not ready for use.
