A WARNING
- Medical experts warn that cell phones can
interfere with the function of pacemakers.
Always maintain a minimum distance of 20
cent imeters between the cell phone antenna and the pacemaker .

local conditions and interference with other
devices.
Connecting a cell phone
- Do not carry the cell phone in a pocket directly over the pacemaker when the phone
is switched on.
- Switch the cell phone off immediately if
you suspect it may be interfering with the
pacemaker.
