WARNING
Medical Devices - Pacemakers
The Advanced Medical Technology Association
recommends that a minimum separation of
6 inches (15cm) be maintained between a
handheld wireless radio and a pacemaker.
These recommendations are consistent with the
independent research by and recommendations of
the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
People with pacemakers should:
• ALWAYS keep the radio more than 15cm from
their pacemaker when the radio is turned ON.
• Not carry the radio in the breast pocket.
• Use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize
the potential for interference.
• Turn the radio OFF immediately if there is any
reason to suspect that interference is taking
place.
Medical Devices - Hearing Aids
Some radios may interfere with some hearing aids.
In the event of such interference, you may want to
consult your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss
alternatives.
