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 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 : l ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches from your pacemaker when the phone is turned on. l Do not carry the phone in a breast pocket. l Use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference. l If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, turn your cellular telephone 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 cellular telephone 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. C POSTED FACILITIES H Turn your cellular telephone OFF where posted notices so require. 8 124 SAFETY INFORMATION FOR WIRELESS HANDHELD PHONES OTHER SAFETY GUIDELINES AIRCRAFT FCC and Transport Canada Regulations prohibit using your cellular telephone while in the air. Turn your cellular telephone OFF before boarding an aircraft. BLASTING AREAS To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your cellular telephone OFF when in a "blasting area" or in areas posted: "Turn off two-way radio." Obey all signs and instructions. POTENTIALLY EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES Turn your cellular telephone OFF when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death. Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked. They include fueling areas such as gas stations; below deck on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities; vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane); areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders; and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle's engine.
