Safety Information
Important Notice
Due to the transmission and reception properties of cellular
communications, data can occasionally be lost or delayed. This can be
due to the variation in radio signal strength that results from changes in
the characteristics of the radio transmission path.
Although data loss is rare, the environment where you operate the
C33X may adversely affect communications. Variations in radio signal
strength are referred to as fading. Fading is caused by several different
factors including signal reflection, the ionosphere, and interference
from other radio channels.
BandRich Inc. or its partners will not be held responsible for damages
of any kind resulting from the delays or errors in data transmitted or
received by the BandLuxe C33X or failure of the BandLuxe C33X to
transmit or receive such data.

Potential Hazards
Do not operate the BandLuxe C33X in an environment that may be
susceptible to radio interference resulting in danger; specifically:
Areas where prohibited by the law.
- Follow any special rules and regulations and obey all signs and
notices. Always turn off the host device and remove the C33X from
the card slot when instructed to do so, or when you suspect that it
may cause interference or danger.
Where explosive atmospheres may be present.
- Do not operate your C33X in any area where a potentially explosive
atmosphere may exist. Sparks in such areas could cause an
explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death. Be aware
and comply with all signs and instructions.
- Users are advised not to operate the C33X while at a refueling point
or service station. Users are reminded to observe restrictions on
the use of radio equipment in fuel depots (fuel storage and
distribution areas), chemical plants or where blasting operations
are in progress.
- Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often but not
always clearly marked. Potential locations can include gas stations,
below deck on boats, chemical transfer or storage facilities,
vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane),
areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain,
dust or metal powders, and any other area where you would
normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.
Near Medical and life support equipment.
- Do not operate your C33X in any area where medical equipment,
life support equipment, or near any equipment that may be
susceptible to any form of radio interference. In such areas, the
host communications device must be turned off. The C33X may
transmit signals that could interfere with this equipment.
On an aircraft, either on the ground or airborne.
- In addition to FAA requirements, many airline regulations state that
you must suspend wireless operations before boarding an airplane.
Please ensure that the host device is turned off and your C33X is
removed from the card slot prior to boarding aircraft in order to
comply with these regulations. The C33X can transmit signals that
could interfere with various onboard systems and controls.
While operating a vehicle.
- The driver or mobile network operator of any vehicle should not
operate a wireless data device while in control of a vehicle. Doing
so will detract from the driver or mobile network operator’s control
and operation of that vehicle. In some countries, operating such
communications devices while in control of a vehicle is an offense.
Regulations
CE Marking
This device has been tested to and conforms to the regulatory
requirements of the European Union and has attained CE Marking.
The CE Mark is a conformity marking consisting of the letters “CE”.
The CE Mark applies to products regulated by certain European health,
safety and environmental protection legislation. The CE Mark is
obligatory for products it applies to: the manufacturer affixes the
marking in order to be allowed to sell his product in the European
market.
This product conforms to the essential requirements of the R&TTE
directive 1999/5/EC in order to attain CE Marking. A notified body has
determined that this device has properly demonstrated that the
requirements of the directive have been met and has issued a
favorable certificate of expert opinion. As such the device will bear the
notified body number 0678 after the CE mark.
The CE Marking is not a quality mark. Foremost, it refers to the safety
rather than to the quality of a product. Secondly, CE Marking is
mandatory for the product it applies to, whereas most quality markings
are voluntary.
Marking: The product shall bear the CE mark, the notified body
number(s) as depicted to the right. CE 0560.
15.21 Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) Statement
You are cautioned that changes or modifications not expressly
approved by the part responsible for compliance could void the user’s
authority to operate the equipment.
15.105(b) Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for
a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules. These
limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates,
uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and
used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee
that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this
equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and
on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that
to which the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
You are cautioned that changes or modifications not expressly
approved by the party responsible for compliance could void your
authority to operate the equipment.
Operation is subject to the following two
conditions:
1) this device may not cause interference and
2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that
may cause undesired operation of the device.
