Appendix A Safety and Handling 107
Hearing Aids
iPhone may interfere with some hearing aids. If it does, consult the hearing aid
manufacturer or your physician for alternatives or remedies.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the device manufacturer or your
physician to determine if it is adequately shielded from external RF energy.
Turn off iPhone in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these areas
instruct you to do so. Hospitals and health care facilities may use equipment that is
sensitive to external RF energy.
Posted Facilities
Turn off iPhone in any facility where posted notices so require.
Blasting Areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn off iPhone when in a “blasting area”
or in areas posted “Turn off two-way radio.” Obey all signs and instructions.
Emergency Calls
You should not rely on wireless devices for essential communications, such as medical
emergencies. Use of iPhone to call emergency services, for example by dialing 911,
may not work in all locations. Emergency numbers and services vary by region,
and sometimes an emergency call cannot be placed due to network availability or
environmental interference.
Important Handling Information
Carrying iPhone
iPhone contains sensitive components. Do not bend, drop, or crush iPhone. If you are
concerned about scratching iPhone, you can use one of the many cases sold separately.
Using Connectors and Ports
Never force a connector into a port. Check for obstructions on the port. If the
connector and port don’t join with reasonable ease, they probably don’t match. Make
sure that the connector matches the port and that you have positioned the connector
correctly in relation to the port.
NOTICE: Failure to follow these handling instructions could result in damage to
iPhone or other property.
