• Hold the wireless device to the ear opposite the

medical device to minimize the potential for

interference.

• Turn the wireless device off immediately if there is

any reason to suspect that interference is taking

place.

• Read and follow the directions from the

manufacturer of their implanted medical device.

If you have any questions about using your wireless

device with an implanted medical device, consult your

health care provider.

Hearing aids

Some digital wireless devices may interfere with some

hearing aids. If interference occurs, consult your service

provider.

Vehicles

RF signals may affect improperly installed or

inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor

vehicles such as electronic fuel injection systems,

electronic antiskid (antilock) braking systems,

electronic speed control systems, and air bag systems.

For more information, check with the manufacturer, or

its representative, of your vehicle or any equipment

that has been added.
Only qualified personnel should service the device or

install the device in a vehicle. Faulty installation or

service may be dangerous and may invalidate any

warranty that may apply to the device. Check regularly

that all wireless device equipment in your vehicle is

mounted and operating properly. Do not store or carry

flammable liquids, gases, or explosive materials in the

same compartment as the device, its parts, or

enhancements. For vehicles equipped with an air bag,

remember that air bags inflate with great force. Do not

place objects, including installed or portable wireless

equipment in the area over the air bag or in the air bag

deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is

improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious

injury could result.
Using your device while flying in aircraft is prohibited.

Switch off your device before boarding an aircraft. The

use of wireless teledevices in an aircraft may be

dangerous to the operation of the aircraft, disrupt the

wireless telephone network, and may be illegal.

Potentially explosive

environments

Switch off your device when in any area with a

potentially explosive atmosphere, and obey all signs

and instructions. Potentially explosive atmospheres

include areas where you would normally be advised to

turn off your vehicle engine. Sparks in such areas could

cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or

even death. Switch off the device at refueling points

such as near gas pumps at service stations. Observe

restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel

depots, storage, and distribution areas; chemical

plants; or where blasting operations are in progress.

Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are

often, but not always, clearly marked. They include

below deck on boats, chemical transfer or storage
