Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that
a minimum separation of 15 cm (6 inches) be maintained between
a handheld wireless device and a pacemaker to avoid potential
interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations
are consistent with the independent research by and
recommendations of Wireless Technology Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
Should ALWAYS keep the device more than 15 cm (6 inches)
from their pacemaker when the device is turned ON.
Should not carry the device in a breast pocket.
Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize
the potential for interference. If you have any reason to
suspect that interference is taking place, turn the device OFF
immediately.
Hearing aids
Some digital wireless devices may interfere with some hearing
aids. In the event of such interference, you may want to consult
your service provider, or call the customer service line to discuss
alternatives.

(WEEE), which entered into force as European law on 13th

electrical equipment at end-of-life.

WEEE, and in addition, to promote the reuse, recycling and other
forms of recovery of such wastes so as to reduce disposal.
