Medical Devices; Explosive Environments - Alcatel STREAK Guía De Usuario

Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of
6 inches (15 cm) be maintained between a mobile phone and a
pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. To achieve
this, use the phone on the opposite ear to your pacemaker and do not carry
it in a breast pocket.
Hearing aids
People with hearing aids or other cochlear implants may experience
interference noise when using wireless devices or when one is nearby.
The level of interference will depend on the type of hearing device and the
distance from the interference source, increasing the separation between
them may reduce the interference. You may also consult your hearing aid
manufacturer to discuss alternatives.

Medical devices

Please consult your doctor and the device manufacturer to determine if
using your phone may interfere with the operation of your medical device.
Hospitals
Switch off your wireless device when requested to do so in hospitals, clinics,
or health care facilities. These requests are designed to prevent possible
interference with sensitive medical equipment.
Aircraft
Switch off your wireless device whenever you are instructed to do so by
airport or airline staff.
104
Consult the airline staff about the use of wireless devices on board the
aircraft. If your device offers a 'flight mode', this must be enabled prior to
boarding an aircraft.
Interference in cars
Please note that because of possible interference to electronic equipment,
some vehicle manufacturers forbid the use of mobile phones in their
vehicles unless a hands-free kit with an external antenna is included in the
installation.

Explosive environments

Gas stations and explosive atmospheres
In locations with potentially explosive atmospheres, obey all posted signs to
turn off wireless devices such as your phone or other radio equipment.
Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres include fueling areas, below
decks on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, and areas
where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal
powders.
Blasting caps and areas
Power off your mobile phone or wireless device when in a blasting area or in
areas posted with power off "two-way radios" or "electronic devices" notices
to avoid interfering with blasting operations.
