Pacemakers

Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum
distance of 15 cm (6 inches) be maintained between a
wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential
interference with the pacemaker.

These recommendations are consistent with the
independent research and recommendations of Wireless
Technology Research.

Persons with pacemakers:

should always keep the phone more than 15 cm (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

potential interference.

If you have any reason to suspect that interference is
taking place, switch your phone off immediately.
