Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum
separation of six inches be maintained between a handheld 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 ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches from their pacemaker when
the phone is turned ON.
• Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket.
• Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for
interference. If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place,
turn the phone OFF immediately.
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of
such interference, you may want to consult your service provider, or call the customer
service line to discuss alternatives.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device
to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician
may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.
Turn the phone OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these areas
instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that
could be sensitive to external RF energy.
WEEE Notice
The Directive on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), which entered
into force as European law on 13th February 2003, resulted in a major change in the
treatment of electrical equipment at end-of-life.
The purpose of this Directive is, as a first priority, the prevention of WEEE, and in
addition, to promote the reuse, recycling and other forms of recovery of such wastes
so as to reduce disposal.
