Health and Safety Recommendations

Safety in Hospitals and Aircraft

Wireless devices transmit radio frequency energy that may affect medical electrical equipment and aircraft's operation. Wireless devices should be switched off wherever you are requested to do so in hospitals, clinics, healthcare facilities or by airline staff. These requests are designed to prevent possible interference with sensitive equipment.

Medical Devices

It is recommended that a minimum separation distance of 20 cm (8 in.) be maintained between a wireless device and a medical device such as pacemakers, defibrillators, or other implantable devices to avoid potential interference with the medical device. Pacemaker users should keep the device at the opposite side of the pacemaker or turn OFF the device if suspected of interference.

Please consult your physician or the manufacturer of the medical device to determine if the operation of your wireless product may interfere with the medical device.
