Safety Guidelines
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers
Association recommends that a
minimum separation of six (6')
inches be maintained between
a handheld wireless phone 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
phone more than six inches
from their pacemaker when
the phone is turned ON;
• Should not carry the phone 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 your phone
OFF immediately.
