In the flyer of Bliss and Bliss TT a neodymium magnet is used. Magnets could affect the functioning of pacemakers and implanted heart defibrillators. A pacemaker could switch into test mode and cause illness and a heart defibrillator may stop working. If you wear these devices keep sufficient distance to the flyer with the magnet (minimal 1 meter). Please warn others who wear these devices from getting too close to the flyer.
Magnets produce a far-reaching, strong magnetic field that could damage TV’s and laptops, PC hard drives, credit and ATM cards, data storage media, watches, hearing aids and speakers. Keep the flyer away from devices and objects that could be damaged by strong magnetic fields. Keep a minimal distance of 1 meter between these devices.
