least a minimum distance as specified from the user in accordance to the regulatory guidelines
which are designed to reduce the overall exposure of the user or operator.
The World Health Organization has stated that present scientific information does not indicate
the need for any special precautions for the use of wireless devices. They recommend that if you
are interested in further reducing your exposure then you can easily do so by reorienting
antennas away from the user or placing the antennas at a greater separation distance then
recommended.
FCC Guidelines for Exposure to Radio Waves
The device includes a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed not to exceed the limits for
exposure to radio waves (radio frequency electromagnetic fields) as referenced in FCC Part
1.1310. The guidelines are based on IEEE ANSI C 95.1 (92) and include a substantial safety
margin designed to ensure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
As such the systems are designed to be operated as to avoid contact with the antennas by the
end user. It is recommended to set the system in a location where the antennas can remain at
least a minimum distance as specified from the user in accordance to the regulatory guidelines
which are designed to reduce the overall exposure of the user or operator.
The device has been tested and found compliant with the applicable regulations as part of the
radio certification process.
The US Food and Drug Administration has stated that present scientific information does not
indicate the need for any special precautions for the use of wireless devices. The FCC
recommends that if you are interested in further reducing your exposure then you can easily do
so by reorienting antennas away from the user or placing the antennas at a greater separation
distance then recommended or lowering the transmitter power output.
