Safety Guidelines Electronic Devices Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals. 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: G Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches from their pacemaker when the phone is turned ON; G Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket. G Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference. G If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, turn your phone OFF immediately. Hearing Aids Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may want to consult AT&T. 67

Safety Guidelines
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic
equipment is shielded from RF
signals. 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:
±
Should ALWAYS keep the
phone more than six inches
from their pacemaker when
the phone is turned ON;
±
Should not carry the phone 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 your phone
OFF immediately.
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may
interfere with some hearing aids.
In the event of such interference,
you may want to consult AT&T.
