Where Should I Put the CardioMessenger?
On your bedside table or close to your bed is
a suitable place for your CardioMessenger
since it generally fulfills the following
conditions:
2 The distance to the implant is less than 2
meters (6 feet), so that regular data
transmission at night is guaranteed.
2 The distance to the implant is more than
20 centimeters (7 inches), so that the
CardioMessenger does not interfere with
the implant.
2 The CardioMessenger is placed on a solid
base and cannot fall.
Please also consider the following:
2 Do not expose the device to moisture or
heat; exposure to direct sunlight and
taking the device into the bathroom are
not recommended.
2 The CardioMessenger should not be
connected to a power outlet controlled by
a light switch.
2 Do not place the device next to a television
set, microwave oven, or similar source of
electromagnetic interference.
Warning! The distance between the
implant and CardioMessenger must not
be less than 20 centimeters (7 inches).
