Safety Information

Pacemakers

The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum

separation of six inches be maintained between a handheld wireless phone

and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These

recommendations are consistent with the independent research by and

recommendations of Wireless Technology Research. Persons with pacemakers:

• Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six 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.

Hearing Aids

Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event

of such interference, you may want to consult your service provider, or call the

customer service line to discuss alternatives.

Other Medical Devices

If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your

device to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your

physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.

Turn the phone OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted in

these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using

equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.

WEEE Notice

The Directive on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), which entered

into force as European law on 13th February 2003, resulted in a major change in the

treatment of electrical equipment at end-of-life.
