Precautions for users of implanted cardiac

pacemakers

Cardiac pacemakers (applies only to digital cordless

telephones):

Wireless Technology Research, LLC (WTR), an

independent research entity, led a multidisciplinary

evaluation of the interference between portable

wireless telephones and implanted cardiac

pacemakers. Supported by the U.S. Food and Drug

Administration, WTR recommends to physicians that:

Pacemaker patients

• Should keep wireless telephones at least six inches

from the pacemaker.

• Should NOT place wireless telephones directly over

the pacemaker, such as in a breast pocket, when it is

turned ON.

• Should use the wireless telephone at the ear opposite

the pacemaker.

WTR’s evaluation did not identify any risk to bystanders

with pacemakers from other persons using wireless

telephones.

About cordless telephones

• Privacy: The same features that make a cordless

telephone convenient create some limitations.

Telephone calls are transmitted between the

telephone base and the cordless handset by radio

waves, so there is a possibility that the cordless

telephone conversations could be intercepted

by radio receiving equipment within range of

the cordless handset. For this reason, you should

not think of cordless telephone conversations as

being as private as those on corded telephones.

• Electrical power: The telephone base of this

cordless telephone must be connected to a

working electrical outlet. The electrical outlet

should not be controlled by a wall switch. Calls

cannot be made from the cordless handset if the

telephone base is unplugged, switched off or if

the electrical power is interrupted.

• Potential TV interference: Some cordless

telephones operate at frequencies that may cause

interference to televisions and VCRs. To minimize

or prevent such interference, do not place

the telephone base of the cordless telephone

near or on top of a TV or VCR. If interference is

experienced, moving the cordless telephone

farther away from the TV or VCR often reduces or

eliminates the interference.

• Rechargeable batteries: Exercise care in handling

batteries in order not to create a short circuit with

conducting material such as rings, bracelets and

keys. The battery or conductor may overheat and

cause harm. Observe proper polarity between

the battery and the battery charger.

• Nickel-metal hydride rechargeable batteries:

Dispose of these batteries in a safe manner. Do not

burn or puncture the battery. Like other batteries

of this type, if burned or punctured, they could

release caustic material which could cause injury.

ECO mode

This power conserving technology reduces power

consumption for optimal battery performance. The

ECO mode activities automatically whenever the

handset is synchronized with the telephone base.

Stimulateurs cardiaques implantés dans l’organisme

Les simulateurs cardiaques (s’applique uniquement

aux téléphones numériques sans ﬁl) :

L’organisme ‘Wireless Technology Research, LLC

(WTR)’, une ﬁrme de recherche indépendante, a mené

une évaluation pluridisciplinaire des interférences

entre les téléphones sans ﬁl portatifs et les stimulateurs

cardiaques implantés dans l’organisme. Appuyée par

l’Administration des aliments et drogues (FDA) des

États-Unis, la ﬁrme WTR recommande aux médecins :

Avis aux détenteurs de stimulateurs cardiaques

• Ils doivent tenir le téléphone sans ﬁl à une distance

d’au moins six pouces du stimulateur cardiaque.

• Ils ne doivent PAS placer le téléphone sans ﬁl

directement sur le stimulateur cardiaque, tel que

dans une poche de chemise, lorsque celui-ci est

en marche.

• Ils doivent utiliser le téléphone sans ﬁl en l’appuyant

sur l’oreille qui se trouve dans la direction opposée

au stimulateur cardiaque.

L’étude effectuée par l’organisme WRS n’a pas

identiﬁé de risque pour les détenteurs de simulateurs

cardiaques causés par les gens qui utilisent un

téléphone sans ﬁl à proximité de ceux-ci.

À propos des téléphones sans ﬁl

Conﬁdentialité : Les mêmes caractéristiques qui

constituent des avantages pour les téléphones sans

ﬁl afﬁchent également des restrictions. Les appels

téléphoniques sont transmis entre le combiné sans

ﬁl et le socle par le biais d’ondes radio ; il y a donc la

possibilité que vos conversations téléphoniques sans ﬁl

soient interceptées par des équipements de réception

radio se trouvant dans la portée du combiné sans ﬁl.

Pour cette raison, vous ne devez pas percevoir les

communications téléphoniques sans ﬁl comme étant

aussi conﬁdentielles que celles des téléphones à

cordons.

Alimentation électrique : Le socle de ce téléphone sans

ﬁl doit être branché à une prise électrique fonctionnelle.

La prise électrique ne doit pas être contrôlée par un

interrupteur mural. Les appels ne pourront pas être

effectués du combiné sans ﬁl si le socle est débranché

ou mis hors tension ou si le courant est coupé.

Possibilité d’interférences aux téléviseurs : Certains

téléphones sans ﬁl fonctionnent sur des fréquences

pouvant causer des interférences aux téléviseurs et

aux magnétoscopes. Pour réduire ou prévenir de telles

interférences, ne placez pas le socle du téléphone sans

ﬁl près ou sur un téléviseur ou magnétoscope. S’il y

a présence de parasites, il est conseillé d’éloigner le

téléphone sans ﬁl du téléviseur ou du magnétoscope

aﬁn de réduire possiblement les interférences.

Piles rechargeables : Manipulez les piles avec soin aﬁn

de ne pas les court-circuiter avec des bagues, bracelets

ou clés. Les piles ou le conducteur peut surchauffer et

causer des blessures. Respectez la polarité adéquate

entre la pile et le chargeur.

Les bloc-piles rechargeables à l’hydrure métallique de

nickel : Jetez ces blocs-piles de manière écologique et

sécuritaire. Ne les incinérez pas et ne les percez pas.

Tel que les autres piles de ce type, elles pourraient

dégager une matière toxique qui peut causer des

blessures corporelles si elles sont brûlées ou percées.
