Remember to follow any special regulations in force
in any area, and always switch your mobile device off

cause interference or danger. When connecting the
mobile device or any accessory to another device,
read its user's guide for detailed safety instructions.

Using Your Mobile Device Near Other Electronic
Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from
Radio Frequency (RF) signals. However, certain
electronic equipment may not be shielded against the
RF signals from your wireless mobile device. Consult
the manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
Implantable Medical Devices
A minimum separation of six (6) inches should be
maintained between a handheld wireless mobile
device and an implantable medical device, such as a
pacemaker or implantable cardioverter defibrillator,
to avoid potential interference with the device.
Persons who have such devices:
•
Should ALWAYS keep the mobile device more than six (6)
inches from their implantable medical device when the
mobile device is turned ON;
•
Should not carry the mobile device in a breast pocket;
•
Should use the ear opposite the implantable medical
device to minimize the potential for interference;
•
Should turn the mobile device OFF immediately if there is
any reason to suspect that interference is taking place;
•
Should read and follow the directions from the
manufacturer of your implantable medical device. If you
have any questions about using your wireless mobile
device with an implantable medical device, consult your
health care provider.
