Safety Precautions for Medical
Devices
For those persons using a pacemaker or
other medical device, please read the
following important safety notes:
• Though most electronic equipment and
critical medical devices are shielded against
radio-frequency signals, it is important to
realize the possibilities of potential
interference and to know the standard
precautions that may be taken.
Pacemakers
Industry standards recommend a minimum
separation of 15 cm (6 inches) between a
wireless phone-type device and a pacemaker
to prevent any potential problems.
Individuals using a pacemaker should:
• Always keep the NURIT more than 15 cm
(6 inches) from the pacemaker when using
the unit for cellular wireless
communication or when performing an
online transaction.
• Turn off the NURIT immediately and
disconnect it from the power supply if you
suspect any problem of interference.
Other Medical Devices
Consult the manufacturer of your medical
device to determine its level of shielding.
Depending on the proximity to certain
equipment, you may be asked not to use your
NURIT terminal or one of its accessories.
