34 Important Health and Safety Information
Operating Environment
Remember to follow any special regulations
in force in any area, and always switch your
mobile device off whenever it is forbidden
to use it, or when it may cause interference
or danger. When connecting the mobile
device or any accessory to another device,
read its user's guide for detailed safety
instructions. Do not connect incompatible
products.
Using Your Mobile Device Near Other
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is
shielded from Radio Frequency (RF) signals.
However, certain electronic equipment
may not be shielded against the RF signals
from your wireless mobile device. Consult
the manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
Implantable Medical Devices
A minimum separation of six (6) inches
should be maintained between a handheld
wireless mobile device and an implantable
medical device, such as a pacemaker or
implantable cardioverter defibrillator,
to avoid potential interference with the
device.
Persons who have such devices:
• Should ALWAYS keep the mobile device
more than six (6) inches from their
implantable medical device when the
mobile device is turned ON;
• Should not carry the mobile device in a
breast pocket;
• Should use the ear opposite the
implantable medical device to minimize
the potential for interference;
Important Health and Safety Information
• Should turn the mobile device OFF
immediately if there is any reason to
suspect that interference is taking place;
• Should read and follow the directions
from the manufacturer of your
implantable medical device. If you have
any questions about using your wireless
mobile device with an implantable
medical device, consult your health care
provider.

Other Medical Devices
