Electromagnetic Interference/Compatibility
Nearly every electronic device is susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI) if inadequately
shielded, designed or otherwise configured for electromagnetic compatibility.
Facilities
To avoid electromagnetic interference and/or compatibility conflicts, turn off your radio product in any
facility where posted notices instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using
equipment that is sensitive to external RF energy.
Medical Devices
Pacemakers: The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation of
6 inches (15 cm) be maintained between a handheld wireless radio product and a pacemaker. These
recommendations are consistent with the independent research by, and recommendations of, Wireless
Technology Research. Persons with pacemakers should:
ALWAYS keep the radio product more than 6 inches (15 cm) from their pacemaker when the
radio product is turned ON.
Not carry the radio product in a breast pocket.
Use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference.
Turn the radio product OFF immediately if you have any reason to suspect that interference is
taking place.
Hearing Aids: Some digital wireless radio products may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of
such interference, you may want to consult your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
Other Medical Devices: If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your
device to determine if it is adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able to
assist you in obtaining this information.
Use While Driving
Check the laws and regulations on the use of radio products in the area where you drive. Always obey
them. When using the radio product while driving, please:
Give full attention to driving and to the road.
Use hands-free operation, if available.
Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions so require.
