Health and safety information

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 phone. Consult the manufacturer to discuss alternatives.

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 minimise potential interference

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

Hearing aids

Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may wish to consult your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
