Pacemakers and Other Medical Devices

Persons with pacemakers should:

Always keep the product more than six (6) inches from their pacemaker when
the product is turned ON.

Not carry the product in a breast pocket.

Use the wrist opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for RF
interference.

Turn the product OFF immediately if there is any indication that interference is
taking place.

If you use any other personal medical device, consult your physician or the
manufacturer of your medical device to determine if it is adequately shielded from
external RF energy.

Exposure to Radio Frequency(RF) Energy

In August 1996, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC), with its
action in Report and Order FCC 96-326, adopted an updated safety standard
for human exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) electromagnetic energy emitted by
FCC-regulated transmitters. The design of this product complies with the FCC
guidelines and these international standards.

This device was also tested for typical next-to-mouth (face) operations with 0.39
inches (1cm) between the user’s mouth (face) and the front of the device.
