14.5 Ethernet Cable Line Safety
Disconnect all Ethernet cable lines from the equipment when not in use
and/or before servicing.
To avoid the remote risk of electric shock from lightning, do not connect the
Ethernet cable line to this equipment during lightning or thunderstorms.
14.6 Medical Devices
Operation of any radio transmitting equipment, including wireless phones, may
interfere with the functionality of inadequately protected medical devices.
Consult a physician or the manufacturer of the medical device to determine if
they are adequately shielded from external RF energy or if you have any
questions. Switch off your device in health care facilities when any regulations
posted in these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities
may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF transmissions.
Pacemakers. Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum
separation of 15.3 centimeters (6 inches) be maintained between wireless
devices and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker.
These recommendations are consistent with the independent research by and
recommendations of Wireless Technology Research. Persons with pacemakers
should do the following:
Always keep the device more than 15.3 centimeters (6 inches) from the
pacemaker
Not carry the device near you pacemaker when the device is switched on. If
you suspect interference, switch off your device, and move it.
Hearing aids. Some digital wireless devices may interfere with some hearing
aids. If interference occurs, consult your service provider.
14.7 Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic
systems in motor vehicles such as electronic fuel injection systems, electronic
antiskid (anti-lock) braking systems, electronic speed control systems, and air
bag systems. For more information, check with the manufacturer, or its
representative, of your vehicle or any equipment that has been added. Only
qualified personnel should service the device, or install the device in a vehicle.
Faulty installation or service may be dangerous and may invalidate any
warranty that may apply to the device. Check regularly that all wireless
equipment in your vehicle is mounted and operating properly. Do not store or
carry flammable liquids, gases, or explosive materials in the same
compartment as the device, its parts, or enhancements. For vehicles equipped
with an air bag, remember that air bags inflate with great force. Do not place
objects, including installed or portable wireless equipment in the area over the
air bag or in the air bag deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is
