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 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:

• ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches from your pacemaker

when the phone is turned on.

• Do not carry the phone in a breast pocket.

• 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.

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.
Turn your phone OFF in healthcare facilities when any regulations

posted in these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or healthcare

facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF

energy.

POSTED FACILITIES

Turn your phone OFF where posted notices so require.
