Persons with pacemaker

• Should always keep the phone more than 20cm (6 inches) from

their pacemaker 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.

• If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place,

switch OFF your hand-held phone immediately.

Hearing aids

Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the
event of such interference, you may want to consult your operator or
service provider.

Other medical devices

Operation of any radio transmitting equipment, including wireless phones,
may 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 signal or if you
have any question.

Switch off your phone in health care facilities when any regulation posted
in these areas instruction you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities
may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF signal.

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.
