Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of 15 cm be
maintained between a mobile device and a pacemaker to avoid potential
interference with the pacemaker.
Hearing Aids
People with hearing aids or other cochlear implants may experience interfering
noises when using wireless devices or when one is nearby. The level of interference
will depend on the type of hearing device and the distance from the interference
source, increasing the separation between them may reduce the interference. You
may also consult your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
Medical devices
Please consult your doctor and the device manufacturer to determine if operation
of your device may interfere with the operation of your medical device.
Hospitals
Switch off your wireless device when requested to do so in hospitals, clinics or
health care facilities. These requests are designed to prevent possible interference
with sensitive medical equipment.

Switch off your wireless device whenever you are instructed to do so by airport or
airline staff. Consult the airline staff about the use of wireless devices on board the
aircraft, if your device offers a ‘flight mode’ this must be enabled prior to boarding
an aircraft.
