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.

Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical devices,
consult the manufacturer of your device to
determine if it is adequately shielded from
external RF energy. Your physician may be able
to assist you in obtaining this information. Switch
your mobile device off in health care facilities
when any regulations posted in these areas
instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care
facilities may be using equipment that could be
sensitive to external RF energy.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or
inadequately shielded electronic systems in
motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or
its representative regarding your vehicle before
using your mobile device in a motor vehicle. You
should also consult the manufacturer of any
equipment that has been added to your vehicle.
