Read these safety instructions carefully.
Attention!
Sepura terminals are designed for use by mobile workforces,
often working alone, and are intended for use in occupational
and controlled conditions.
It is the responsibility of the person operating the product to
ensure that it is operated safely at all times, and that local laws
and regulations governing the usage of Radio Frequency (RF)
products are observed.
This product must not be operated in environments that exceed
those listed in the Regulatory section of the user guide.
Users must be trained to operate this product safely. Their
personal safety could be affected if they do not understand how
to operate this product correctly.
Exposure to RF energy
Sepura designs and manufactures products to meet strict
guidelines and international standards relating to Radio
Frequency energy and the potential health risks associated with
using such products.
Sepura terminals contain low powered radio transmitters and
receivers that receive and transmit Radio Frequency (RF)
signals when switched on. The antenna radiates RF energy only
when transmitting and not in standby mode.
Users should be informed of the potential health risks
associated with long term exposure to RF energy by their
employer.
RF energy interference with electronic equipment
Some personal medical devices, such as hearing aids and
pacemakers, can be affected by RF energy. Always consult your
service provider or the manufacturer of the medical device
before using RF wireless devices.
Some electronic devices are sensitive to RF energy. Always
obey signs restricting the use of wireless devices. It is
recommended that the terminal be switched off when operating
within health care facilities.
Safely operating the product
Users should always ensure that the terminal is operating
correctly before entering any environment that has a potential
risk to personal safety.
The terminal should be used in its normal operating position
when hand-held, worn on the body or secured within a cradle.
Always ensure that the antenna is pointed away from the body,
particularly the eyes, during operation. When worn on the body,
the terminal should be secured using a clip or body vest.
Operate the terminal in a vertical position and with the
microphone 5 cm(2 in.) away from your mouth when
transmitting.
When body-worn, the antenna must be at least 2.5 cm (1 in.)
away from the body when transmitting.
The terminal has a loud speaker designed for hand-held and
body-worn use. Never place the terminal close to your ear when
receiving; it may damage your hearing. Always check the
volume level before making and receiving calls.
Safety in hazardous environments
These terminals are not designed for use in potentially explosive
environments where RF wireless devices could potentially cause
an explosion. SWITCH OFF the terminal if you are unsure if the
terminal is a risk in these environments. Potentially hazardous
areas are not always signed. Obey all signs and instructions
relating to the usage of RF wireless devices.
Do not use the terminal in the presence of gas fumes,
explosives dust situations, nuclear facilities, fuel or chemical
transfer or storage facilities, around aircraft navigation and
control systems, and weapons.
