Hearing Aids
People with hearing aids or other cochlear
implants may experience interfering noises
when using wireless devices or when one is
nearby.
The level of interference will depend on the
type of hearing device and the distance from
the interference source. Increasing the
separation between them may reduce the
interference. You may also consult your
hearing aid manufacturer to discuss
alternatives.
Medical Devices
Please consult your doctor and the device
manufacturer to determine if operation of your
phone may interfere with the operation of your
medical device.
Hospitals
Turn off your wireless device when requested
to do so in hospitals, clinics or health care
facilities. These requests are designed to
prevent possible interference with sensitive
medical equipment.
Aircraft
Turn off your wireless device whenever you
are instructed to do so by airport or airline
staff.
Consult the airline staff about the use of
wireless devices onboard the aircraft. If your
device offers a ‗flight mode‘, this must be
enabled prior to boarding an aircraft.
Interference in Cars
Please note that because of possible
interference with electronic equipment, some
vehicle manufacturers forbid the use of
mobile phones in their vehicles unless a
hands-free kit with an external antenna is
included in the installation.
Explosive Environments
Gas Stations and Explosive
Atmospheres
In locations with potentially explosive
atmospheres, obey all posted signs to turn off
wireless devices such as your phone or other
radio equipment.
Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres
include fueling areas, below decks on boats,
fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities,
and areas where the air contains chemicals or
particles, such as grain, dust, or metal
powders.
Blasting Caps and Areas
Power off your mobile phone or wireless
device when in a blasting area or in areas
posted power off ―two-way radios‖ or
―electronic devices‖ to avoid interfering with
blasting operations.
