Potentially Hazardous Atmospheres
Observe restrictions on the use of radio devices in fuel depots, chemical plants, etc. and areas where
the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders, and any other area
where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.
Safety in Aircraft
Switch off the wireless device when instructed to do so by airport or airline staff. If the device offers a
‘flight mode’ or similar feature, consult airline staff about its use in flight.
Safety in Hospitals
Wireless devices transmit radio frequency energy and may affect medical electrical equipment. Switch
off wireless devices wherever requested to do so in hospitals, clinics, or health care facilities. These
requests are designed to prevent possible interference with sensitive medical equipment.
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommended that a minimum of 15 cm (6 inches) be maintained between
a handheld wireless device and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker.
These recommendations are consistent with independent research and recommendations by Wireless
Technology Research.
Persons with Pacemakers:
n Should ALWAYS keep the device more than 15 cm (6 inches) from their pacemaker when turned
ON.
n Should not carry the device in a breast pocket.
n If you have any reason to suspect that the interference is taking place, turn OFF your device.
