Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of
15.3 centimeters (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 by and recommendations of Wireless
Technology Research. Persons with pacemakers should do the following:
• Always keep the device more than 15.3 centimeters (6 inches) from the pacemaker
• Not carry the device in a breast pocket
• Hold the device to the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential
for interference.
If you suspect interference, switch off your device, and move the device away.
Hearing aids
Some digital wireless devices may interfere with some hearing aids. If interference
occurs, consult your service provider.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic
systems in motor vehicles such as electronic fuel injection systems, electronic
antiskid (antilock) braking systems, electronic speed control systems, and air bag
systems. For more information, check with the manufacturer, or its representative,
of your vehicle or any equipment that has been added. Only qualified personnel
should service the device, or install the device in a vehicle. Faulty installation or
service may be dangerous and may invalidate any warranty that may apply to the
device. Check regularly that all wireless device equipment in your vehicle is
mounted and operating properly. Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases,
or explosive materials in the same compartment as the device, its parts, or
enhancements. For vehicles equipped with an air bag, remember that air bags
inflate with great force. Do not place objects, including installed or portable
wireless equipment in the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area.
If in-vehicle wireless equipment is improperly installed, and the air bag inflates,
serious injury could result.
Using your device while flying in aircraft is prohibited. Switch off your device
before boarding an aircraft. The use of wireless teledevices in an aircraft may be
dangerous to the operation of the aircraft, disrupt the wireless telephone network,
and may be illegal.
