2.2 Electromagnetic emissions
All electronic devices generate free-space radiated electromagnetic emissions
due to the electric or magnetic activity of the device.
These electromagnetic emissions may interfere with other appliances, such as
personal computers or radiofrequency systems, causing loss of data or
downgrading of performance.
This disturbance is known as electromagnetic interference (EMI), while
electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) defines the ability of electronic devices to
operate correctly in the presence of electromagnetic fields, tolerating and
limiting electromagnetic interference.
Although the DACTYSCAN84C device has been designed in full compliance with
current regulations, in particular cases, electromagnetic interference may be
caused mainly by two phenomena: closeness to other appliances and electrical
interference in power lines.
If this happens, the phenomenon can be corrected as follows:
Insulation
Devices characterized by strong radiation of electromagnetic waves must
be kept at reasonable distance from the DACTYSCAN84C device.
Radiation
If the DACTYSCAN84C device is close to receivers/transmitters, modify
the direction of the antenna.
Dedicated circuits
Connect the DACTYSCAN84C device on separate power lines from other
devices with high electric noise such as, for example, conditioners.
2.3 Environmental protection (European Union)
This symbol, applied to the product or packaging, indicates that
the product belongs to the category of electric and electronic
equipment.
The product contains potentially hazardous substances for the
environment and health and must never be disposed of together
with ordinary solid waste. In compliance with current legislation
and the WEEE Directive 2002/96/CE, waste electric and
electronic equipment must be managed according to the
procedures established.
The user is responsible for disposal of this product which must be sent to
collection centers specialized in the recycling of electric and electronic
equipment, thus contributing to re-use of equipment that could have
dangerous effects on the environment and on health.
For further information regarding collection and recycling points in your area,
contact the authorities of your city or the Green Bit customer assistance service
or your retailer for information on withdrawal of the device.
