Interference

Care must be taken when using the device in close proximity to personal medical devices, such as pacemakers and hearing aids.

• Pacemakers
  Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of 15cm be maintained between a device anda pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker.

• 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.

• Medical devices
  Please consult your doctor and the device manufacturer to determine if operation of your device may interfere with the operation of your medical device.

• Hospitals
  Switch off your wireless device when requested to do so in hospitals, clinics or health care facilities. These requests are designed to prevent possible interference with sensitive medical equipment.

  • Consult the airline staff about the use of wireless devices on board the aircraft, if your device offers a ‘flight mode’ this must be enabled prior to boarding an aircraft.

• Interference in cars
  Please note that because of possible interference to electronic equipment, some vehicle manufacturers forbid the use of devices in their vehicles unless an external antenna is included in the installation.

Explosive environments

• Petrol stations and explosive atmospheres
  In locations with potentially explosive atmospheres, obey all posted signs to turn off wireless devices such as your device or other radio equipment.
  Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres include fuelling areas, below decks on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders.

• Blasting caps and areas
  Turn off your device or wireless device when in a blasting area or in areas posted turn off “two-way radios” or “electronic devices” to avoid interfering with blasting operations.
