Facilities
Turn off your phone in any facility where posted notices instruct you to do so. These facilities may include hospitals or health care facilities that may be using equipment that is sensitive to external RF energy.
Aircraft

Medical Devices
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of
6 inches (15 centimeters) be maintained between a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker.
Persons with pacemakers should:
•ALWAYS keep the phone more than 6 inches (15 centimeters) from your pacemaker when the phone is turned ON.
•NOT carry the phone in the breast pocket.
•Use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference.
•Turn OFF the phone immediately if you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place.
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may want to consult your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately shielded from RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.
