(15.3 cm) bemaintained between a wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference withthe pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the independent research byand recommendations of Wireless Technology Research. Persons with pacemakers should:• always keep the device more than 6 in. (15.3 cm) from their pacemaker when the deviceis switched on;• not carry the device in a breast pocket; and• hold the device to the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimise the potential forinterference.If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, switch off your deviceimmediately.
