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 6 inches (20 cm) from their pacemakers when the phone is switched on. • Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket. • Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference. Caution: If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, switch off your phone immediately. HEARING AIDS Some digital wireless phones could interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you might want to consult your service provider. OTHER MEDICAL DEVICES Operation of any radio transmitting equipment, including cellular phones, could interfere with the functionality of inadequately protected medical devices. Consult a physician or the manufacturer of the medical device to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF energy. Also contact these authorities if you have any questions.
