SAFETY INFORMATION FOR WIRELESS HANDHELD
PHONES
ELECTRONIC DEVICES
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from
RF energy. However, certain electronic equipment
may not be shielded against the RF signals from your
wireless phone.
PACEMAKERS
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recom-
mends that a minimum separation of six inches (6”)
be maintained between a handheld wireless phone
and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with
the pacemaker. These recommendations are consis-
tent with independent research and that of Wireless
Technology Research.
People with pacemakers should:
• Always keep the phone more than six inches from
your pacemaker when the phone is powered on.
• Do not carry the phone in a breast pocket.
• Use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the
potential for interference.
• lf you have any reason to suspect that interference
is taking place, turn your cellular phone off immediately.

DRIVING SAFETY
Talking on the phone while driving is extremely dan-
gerous and illegal in some areas. Remember, safety
comes first. Check the laws and regulations on using
phones in the areas where you drive and always
obey them.
In addition, if you use your wireless phone while
driving, please:
• Give full attention to driving. Safe driving is your
first responsibility.
• If available, use hands-free operation.
• Pull off the road and park before making or answer-
ing calls as required by various driving conditions.
If you must use the phone while driving, please use
one-touch, speed dialing, and auto-answer modes.

improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious
injury could result.
