In certain cases, the transmission of data can be activated

by placing a special magnet directly over the implant.

Your doctor will explain to you if, how and when you

should do this.

Please use this function only if your doctor requests it and

gives you a suitable magnet. Your doctor must program

this function for your implant.

Note: Patients with implantable cardioverter defibrillators

should not place a magnet over your chest, as this inter-

feres with the proper functioning of your ICD.
