ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE/COMPATIBILITY
NOTE
Nearly every electronic device is susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI) if
inadequately shielded, designed, or alternately configured for electromagnetic compatibility.
Facilities
To avoid electromagnetic interference and/or compatibility conflicts, turn off your radio 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.
Aircraft
When instructed to do so, turn off your radio when on board an aircraft. Any use of a radio must be in accordance
with applicable regulations per airline crew instructions.
Medical Devices

(6 inches) be maintained between a handheld wireless radio and a pacemaker.These recommendations are
consistent with those of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

ALWAYS keep the radio more than 15 cm (6inches) from their pacemaker when the radio is turned ON.
G
not carry the radio in the breast pocket.
G
use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference.

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.

If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is
adequately shielded from RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.
