Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum
separation of 15.3 centimeters (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 by and recommendations of Wireless Technology
Research. Persons with pacemakers should:
• Always keep the device more than 15.3 centimeters
(6 inches) from the pacemaker
• Not carry the device in a breast pocket
• Hold the device to the ear opposite the pacemaker to
minimize the potential for interference.
If you suspect interference, switch off your device and move
the device away.
Hearing aids
Some digital wireless devices may interfere with some
hearing aids. If interference occurs, consult your service
provider.
