I did check into it .The pacemaker company said to treat it like a cell phone. In other words, don't put the key (or whatever you want to call it) in your shirt pocket nearest to the pacemaker. They said if the key is in the console, everything would be fine. My Dad has had no trouble at all. Hope this helps.
