I. General Information

Important notes on the operation of VEO VOX!
Please read them carefully prior to the operation of the reading system!

 Information on electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)

This opto-electronic reading system with speech output is suited for use in all set-

ups including the domicile that are connected directly to a public power supply for 

buildings with residential purposes.
This system is designed for the use in the indicated electro-magnetic environment. 

The user should ensure the use in the indicated environment.
This system operates on HF-Energy exclusively for its own function. Therefore, the 

emitted interference of high frequency disturbances is very low and the interference 

with other appliances operated close-by is improbable. When operating the reading 

system simultaneously with other systems, however, the possibility of disturbances 

of the system or other systems should not be neglected.
For this reason, it should be ensured that the system is not placed directly beside 

or on top of another system. If the set-up of this system in the proximity of medical, 

measuring devices cannot be avoided, the operator of these devices must be
informed that it is necessary to observe the performance of the system to control the 

conventional use of the system in the chosen set-up.
Electronic devices are sensitive towards electric discharge and towards high  

frequency electromagnetic fields.

Caution: 

To avoid high frequency disturbances (e.g. microwaves), the operator should main-

tain a minimum distance of one meter / three feet away from portable and mobile 

HF-telecommunication devices.
Please also see chapter: Safety advice (page 7).

Storage of the user manual

The user manual is an essential part of your reading system. Please keep the book- 

let in a safe place for future reference.
