Medical Devices
Pacemakers
The Advanced Medical Technology Association (AdvaMed) recommends that a minimum separation
of 15 centimeters (6 inches) be maintained between a handheld wireless radio and a pacemaker.
These recommendations are consistent with those of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
Persons with pacemakers should:
• ALWAYS keep the radio more than 15 centimeters from their pacemaker when the radio is turned ON.
• Not carry the radio in the breast pocket.
• Use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference.
• Turn the radio OFF immediately if you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place.
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless radios may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference,
you may want to consult your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine
if it is adequately shielded from RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this
information.
