Aircraft
When instructed to do so, turn off your radio when on board an aircraft. Any use
of a radio must be in accordance with applicable regulations per airline crew
instructions.
Medical Devices
Pacemakers
The Advanced Medical Technology Association (AdvaMed) recommends that a
minimum separation of 6 inches (15 centimeters) be maintained between a
handheld wireless radio and a pacemaker. These recommendations are
consistent with those of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
Persons with pacemakers should:
• ALWAYS keep the radio more than 6 inches (15 centimeters) from their
pacemaker when the radio is turned ON.
• Not carry the radio in the breast pocket.
• Use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference.
• Turn the radio OFF immediately if there is any reason to suspect that
interference is taking place.
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless radios may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of
such interference, you may want to consult your hearing aid manufacturer to
discuss alternatives.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your
device to determine if it is adequately shielded from RF energy. Your physician
may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.
