The exposure values are well below
internationally accepted safety limits
for SAR, Induced electromagnetic power
and voltages into the human body
defined in the standards for human
health and coexistence with active
medical implants such as pacemakers
and heart defibrillators.
If you have an active brain Implant,
please contact the manufacturer of
your implantable device for information
about the risk of disturbance.
The Autophone or MultiTool (which has
a built-in magnet) should be kept at
least 30 cm away from the implant, e.g.
do not carry it in your breast pocket.
In general, please follow the guidelines
recommended by the manufacturers of
implantable defibrillators and
pacemakers on use with magnets.
Cochlear implants
If you are using a cochlear implant (CI)
on one ear and a hearing aid on the
other ear, make sure to always keep
your CI at least at a 1cm distance from
your hearing aid. The magnetic field
from the CI sound processors, coils, and
magnets may permanently damage the
speaker unit in your hearing aid. Never
place the devices close together on a
table e.g. when cleaning or changing
batteries. Do not carry the CI and the
hearing aid together in the same box.
X-ray/CT/MR/PET scanning,
electrotherapy and surgery
Remove your hearing aid before X-ray,
CT/MR/PET scanning, electrotherapy,
surgery, etc. as your hearing aid may
be damaged when exposed to strong
fields.
