1.4
Antenna care and replacement
Do not use the modem with a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna
comes into contact with the skin, a minor burn may result. Replace a
damaged antenna immediately. Consult your manual to see if you may
change the antenna yourself. If so, use only a manufacturer-approved
antenna. Otherwise, have your antenna repaired by a qualified technician.
Use only the supplied or approved antenna. Unauthorised antennas,
modifications or attachments could damage the modem and may contravene
local RF emission regulations or invalidate type approval.
1.5
Driving
Check the laws and regulations on the use of cellular devices in the area
where you drive. Always obey them. Also, when using your modem while
driving, please pay full attention to driving, pull off the road and park before
making or answering a call if driving conditions so require. When
applications are prepared for mobile use they should fulfil road-safety
instructions of the current law!
1.6
Electronic devices
Most electronic equipment, for example in hospitals and motor vehicles is
shielded from RF energy. However RF energy may affect some
malfunctioning or improperly shielded electronic equipment.
1.7
Vehicle electronic equipment
Check your vehicle manufacturer’s representative to determine if any on
board electronic equipment is adequately shielded from RF energy.
1.8
Medical electronic equipment
Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices (such as
pacemakers, hearing aids, etc.) to determine if they are adequately shielded
from external RF energy.
Turn your FALCOM C2D-SI modem OFF in health care facilities when any
regulations posted in the area instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care
facilities may be using RF monitoring equipment.
1.9
Aircraft
Turn your FALCOM C2D-SI OFF before boarding any aircraft.
Use it on the ground only with crew permission.
Do not use it in the air.
To prevent possible interference with aircraft systems, Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) regulations require you to have permission from a
crew member to use your modem while the plane is on the ground. To
prevent interference with cellular systems, local RF regulations prohibit
using your modem whilst airborne.
