Electromagnetic Interference and 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
handset 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.
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 handset more than 6 inches (15 cm) from their pacemaker
when the handset is turned on.
• Not carry the handset in a breast pocket.
• Use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference.
• Turn the handset off immediately if you have any reason to suspect that
interference is taking place.
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
Campus installations and warehouse facilities that use vehicles such as forklifts or
golf carts should abide by these guidelines when using wireless telephones:
• Give full attention to driving and to the road, aisle, or path.
• Use hands-free operation, if available.
• Pull off the road, aisle, or path and park before making or answering a call.
