Parts of the device are magnetic. Metallic materials may
be attracted to the device. Do not place credit cards or
other magnetic storage media near the device, because
information stored on them may be erased.
Medical devices
Operation of radio transmitting equipment, including
wireless phones, may interfere with the function of
inadequately protected medical devices. Consult a
physician or the manufacturer of the medical device to
determine whether they are adequately shielded from
external RF energy. Switch off your device when
regulations posted instruct you to do so. Hospitals or
health care facilities may use equipment sensitive to
external RF energy.
Implanted medical devices
Manufacturers of medical devices recommend a minimum
separation of 15.3 centimetres (6 inches) 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
centimetres (6 inches) from the medical device.
• Not carry the wireless device in a breast pocket.
• Hold the wireless device to the ear opposite the medical
device.
• Turn the wireless device off if there is any reason to
suspect that interference is taking place.
• Follow the manufacturer directions for the implanted
medical device.
If you have any questions about using your wireless device
with an implanted medical device, consult your health
care provider.
Hearing aids
Some digital wireless devices may interfere with some
hearing aids.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately
shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles such as
electronic fuel injection, electronic antilock braking,
electronic speed control, and air bag systems. For more
information, check with the manufacturer of your vehicle
or its equipment.
Only qualified personnel should service the device or
install the device in a vehicle. Faulty installation or service
may be dangerous and may invalidate your warranty.
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
accessories. Remember that air bags inflate with great
force. Do not place your device or accessories in the air bag
deployment area.
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 and may be illegal.
