Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that
a minimum separation of 15 cm (6 inches) be maintained between
a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential
interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations are
10 Safety and regulatory guide
consistent with the independent research by and
recommendations of Wireless Technology Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than 15 cm (6 inches)
from their pacemaker when the phone is turned ON.
Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket.
Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the
potential for interference. If you have any reason to suspect that
interference is taking place, turn the phone OFF immediately.

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is
subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not
cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any
interference received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the
limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC
Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference
will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does
cause harmful interference to radio or TV reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment on and off, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of
the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
