Health and Safety Information

175

for the safety of personnel, it is recommended that the

equipment should only be used in the normal operating position

(held to your ear with the antenna pointing over your shoulder if

you are using an external antenna).

Using Your Phone 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

phone. Consult the manufacturer to discuss alternatives.

Implantable Medical Devices

A minimum separation of six (6) inches should be maintained

between a handheld wireless phone 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 phone more than six (6) inches from their

implantable medical device when the phone is turned ON;

•

Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket;

•

Should use the ear opposite the implantable medical device to

minimize the potential for interference;

•

Should turn the phone 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 phone with such a device, consult your health care

provider.

For more information see:

http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety/rf-faqs.html

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 phone 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. You

should also consult the manufacturer of any equipment that has

been added to your vehicle.

Posted Facilities

Switch your phone off in any facility where posted notices require

you to do so.
