Electromagnetic Interference
When you use a Bluetooth device, pay attention to the following:
Bluetooth devices operate in the 2�4 GHz band that is also used by
other appliances, such as Wireless LAN products, microwave ovens,
RFID systems, amateur radio stations, and so on�
When using a Bluetooth device near such devices, interference may
occur, causing a decrease in communication speed, and an unstable
connection�
In such case, keep the Bluetooth devices away from the other
appliances, or stop using those devices�
Bringing the Bluetooth device and the transceiver closer together also
improves communication�

About the VS-3 Bluetooth headset

using the transceiver’s [PTT] switch�

using the headset with the IP730D or IP740D�
