Implanted medical devices
Manufacturers of medical devices recommend that a
minimum separation of 15.3 centimeters (6 inches) should
be maintained between a wireless device and an implanted
medical device, such as a pacemaker or implanted
cardioverter defibrillator, to avoid potential interference
with the medical device. Persons who have such devices
should:
• Always keep the wireless device more than
15.3 centimeters (6 inches) from the medical device
when the wireless device is turned on.
• Not carry the wireless device in a breast pocket.
• Hold the wireless device to the ear opposite the medical
device to minimize the potential for interference.
• Turn the wireless device off immediately if there is any
reason to suspect that interference is taking place.
• Read and follow the directions from the manufacturer
of their implanted medical device.
