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
