Pacemakers

The Health Industry Manufacturers
Association recommends that a
minimum separation of six (6’) 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 your 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.

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.

Health Care Facilities

Turn your phone OFF in health care
facilities when any regulations posted
in these areas instruct you to do so.
Hospitals or health care facilities may
use equipment that could be sensitive
to external RF energy.
