Electromagnetic Interference/
Compatibility
Note:
Nearly every electronic device is susceptible to
electromagnetic interference (EMI) if inadequately shielded,
designed, or otherwise configured for electromagnetic
compatibility.
Facilities
To avoid electromagnetic interference and/or compatibility
conflicts, turn off your phone in any facility where posted notices
instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be
using equipment that is sensitive to external RF energy.
Aircraft
When instructed to do so, turn off your phone when on board
an aircraft. Any use of a phone must be in accordance with
applicable regulations per airline crew instructions.
Medical Devices
Pacemakers
The Advanced Medical Technology Association
recommends that a minimum separation of 6 inches
(15 centimeters) be maintained between a handheld wireless
phone and a pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent
with the independent research by, and recommendations of, the
United States Food and Drug Administration.
Persons with pacemakers should:
•
ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches
(15 centimeters) from your pacemaker when the phone is
turned ON.
•
NOT carry the phone in the breast pocket.
•
use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential
for interference.
•
turn OFF the phone immediately if you have any reason to
suspect that interference is taking place.
