with operation of electrical medical

equipment such as pacemakers. Fail-

ure to take the precautions listed

below can increase the risk of severe

injury or death due to radio wave

interference.

• Anyone who uses electrical medi-

cal equipment such as a pace-

maker should consult the medical

equipment supplier or their medical

advisor about whether radio waves

from the antenna(s) can interfere

with the medical equipment.
