These recommendations are consistent with the independent research by 21 and recommendations of Wireless Technology Research. Persons with pacemakers:

should always keep the phone more than six inches (20 cm) 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 the potential for interference

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

HEARING AIDS

Some digital wireless phones could interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you might want to consult your service provider.

OTHER MEDICAL DEVICES

Operation of any radio transmitting equipment, including cellular phones, could interfere with the functionality of inadequately protected medical devices. Consult a physician or the manufacturer of the medical device to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF energy. Also contact these authorities if you have any questions.

Switch off your phone in health care facilities or where any posted regulations instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities could be using equipment that is sensitive to external RF energy.

VEHICLES

RF signals could improperly affect installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles. These could include electronic fuel injection systems, electronic anti-skid (anti-lock) braking systems, electronic speed control systems, or air bag systems.

Check with the manufacturer or its representative regarding your vehicle. You should also consult the manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.
