exercise bike and defibrillators

exercise bike and defibrillators

I had a defibrillator put in in April, 2008.  I wanted to purchase an exercise bike, but the bike information pamphlets say they use powerful magnetic resistance.  Are they safe to use, as I have read some warnings about magnets with an ICD?   Thanks.
