Terminals with GSM modem
If the terminal is fitted with a built-in GSM modem, this will emit radio waves when it is switched on.
These can interfere with other equipment or be harmful to human health.
You should therefore follow the instructions below when the terminal is fitted with a GSM modem:
▪ If you wear a medical device, ask your doctor or the device manufacturer how to proceed in
order to prevent risks. Medical devices such as pacemakers or hearing aids may be sensitive to
the radio signal of the built-in GSM modem.
▪ If you wear a pacemaker, keep the terminal away from the pacemaker.
▪ Switch off the terminal as soon as you are close to a gas station, chemical plant, biogas plant or
any other location where combustible gases or fumes may be present. These gases can be
ignited by a spark and explode.
▪ Always maintain a distance of at least 20 cm between the GSM antenna and your body.
▪ Never switch the terminal on in an aircraft. Make sure that it is not accidentally switched on
during flight.
▪ Never connect the terminal by means of a power supply to the mains network. Only use the
vehicle battery.
