Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio frequency (RF) signals. However,
inadequately shielded electronic equipment may be affected by the RF signals generated by your
device.
Medical and Life Support Equipment
Do not use your device in healthcare facilities or where medical life support equipment is located as
such equipment could be affected by your device’s external RF signals.
Pacemakers
• It is recommended to maintain a minimum separation of six inches between a RF device
and a pacemaker in order to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker.
• Persons with pacemakers should always follow these guidelines:
• Always keep the device at least six inches away from a pacemaker when the device is
turned on.
• Place your device on the opposite side of your body where your pacemaker is implanted
in order to add extra distance between the pacemaker and your device.
• Avoid placing a device that is on next to a pacemaker (e.g., do not carry your device in a
shirt or jacket pocket that is located directly over the pacemaker).
• If you are concerned or suspect for any reason that interference is taking place with your
pacemaker, turn your device OFF immediately.
Hearing Devices
When some wireless devices are used with certain hearing devices (including hearing aids and
cochlear implants) users may detect a noise which may interfere with the effectiveness of the hearing
device.
Use of Your Device while Operating a Vehicle
Please consult the manufacturer of any electronic equipment that has been installed in your vehicle as
RF signals may affect electronic systems in motor vehicles.
Please do not operate your device while driving a vehicle. This may cause a severe distraction and in
some areas, it is against the law.
Use of Your Device on an Aircraft
Don’t use your device during flight,it may violate FAA regulations. Because your device may
interfere with onboard electronic equipment, always follow the instructions of the airline personnel
and turn your device OFF.
Blasting Areas
In order to avoid interfering with blasting operations, your device should be turned OFF when in a
blasting area or in an area with posted signs indicating that people in the area must turn off two-way
radios. Please obey all signs and instructions when you are in and around a blasting area.
