Parts of the device are magnetic. Metallic materials may be attracted to the device.

Do not place credit cards or other magnetic storage media near the device, because

information stored on them may be erased.

Medical devices
Operation of radio transmitting equipment, including wireless phones, may interfere

with the function of inadequately protected medical devices. Consult a physician or

the manufacturer of the medical device to determine whether they are adequately

shielded from external RF energy. Switch off your device when regulations posted

instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may use equipment sensitive

to external RF energy.

Implanted medical devices
Manufacturers of medical devices recommend a minimum separation of 15.3

centimetres (6 inches) between a wireless device and an implanted medical device,

such as a pacemaker or implanted cardioverter defibrillator, to avoid potential

interference with the medical device. Persons who have such devices should:

Always keep the wireless device more than 15.3 centimetres (6 inches) from

the medical device.

Not carry the wireless device in a breast pocket.

Hold the wireless device to the ear opposite the medical device.

Turn the wireless device off if there is any reason to suspect that interference

is taking place.

Follow the manufacturer directions for the implanted medical device.

If you have any questions about using your wireless device with an implanted medical

device, consult your health care provider.
