Radio Frequency Interference
General Statement on Interference
Care must be taken when using your phone in close proximity to
personal medical devices, such as pacemakers and hearing aids.
Please consult your doctor and the device manufacturers to
determine if the operation of your phone may interfere with the
operation of your medical devices.
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 interfering noises 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.
