Pacemakers

The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that

a minimum separation of 15 cm (6 inches) be maintained between

a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential

interference with the pacemaker. Persons with pacemakers:

Should always keep the HandlePlus 326i gsm more than 15 cm

(6 inches) from their pacemaker when the phone is turned on

Should not carry the HandlePlus 326i gsm in a breast pocket

Should 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

the HandlePlus 326i gsm off immediately.

Areas with explosion risk

Always turn off the unit when you are in an area where there is a risk of

explosion. Follow all signs and instructions. There is a risk of explosion

in places that include areas where you are normally requested to turn

off your car engine. In these areas, sparks can cause explosion or fire

which can lead to personal injury or even death.
Turn off the unit at filling stations, and any other place that has gas

pumps and auto repair facilities.
Follow the restrictions that apply to the use of radio equipment near

places where fuel is stored and sold, chemical factories and places

where blasting is in progress.
Areas with risk for explosion are often – but not always – clearly

marked. This also applies to below decks on ships; the transport or

storage of chemicals; vehicles that use liquid fuel (such as propane or

butane); areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as

grain, dust or metal powder.
