• 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.
Usage 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.
For Vehicles Equipped with an Airbag
Do not place a portable device in the area over the airbag or in the airbag
deployment area. An airbag inflates with great force. If a handset is placed in the
airbag deployment area and the airbag inflates, the handset may be propelled at
high speed and cause serious injury to occupants of the vehicle.
SPECIFIC ABSORPTION RATE (SAR) INFORMATION
Your wireless telephone is a low-power radio transmitter and receiver. When it is
ON, it receives and also sends out radio frequency (RF) signals. In August 1996, the
Federal Communications Commissions (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines with
safety levels for hand-held wireless telephones. Those guidelines are consistent
with the safety standards previously set by both U.S. and international standards
bodies:
• ANSI C95.1 (1992) American National Standards Institute
• NCRP—Report 86 (1986) National Council on Radiation Protection and
Measurements
• ICNIRP (1996) International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection
• DHWC—Safety Code 6 Department of Health and Welfare Canada
