Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of 15.3
centimeters (6 inches) be maintained between a wireless phone and a
pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. Persons with
pacemakers should do the following:
• Always keep the device more than 15.3 centimeters (6 inches) from the
pacemaker
• Not carry the device in a breast pocket
• Hold the device to the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the poten-
tial for interference.
• If you suspect interference, switch off your device, and move the device
away.
Hearing aids
Some digital wireless devices may interfere with some hearing aids. If
interference occurs, consult your service provider.

any warranty that may apply to the device. 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 enhancements. For vehicles equipped
with an air bag, remember that air bags inflate with great force. Do not place
