• Australian Communications Authority
Radiocommunications (Electromagnetic
Radiation - Human Exposure) Standard
1999 (applicable to wireless phones only).
In order to ensure the best communication
quality and compliance with the safety
standards stipulated by the abovementioned
documents, the equipment operating rules
must be followed.
Electromagnetic Interference and
Compatibility
Almost any electronic device is subjected
to electromagnetic interference unless it is
adequately shielded, has proper construction
or is compatible with devices operating in
another frequency band.
Prohibition on Use of Mobile
Communication Devices
If you come across a signage or a notice, which
prohibits the use of mobile communication
devices, turn off your tracker. This is required
to avoid electromagnetic interference with
equipment sensitive to electromagnetic
fields often used in hospitals, health care
institutions or petrol stations.
Medical Devices
Cardiac Pacemakers
Medical Device Manufacturers Association
advises to use mobile communication devices
at distances greater than 15 cm from cardiac
pacemaker so as to prevent the failure of
the latter. These recommendations conform
to the studies carried out by independent
medical laboratories and Research Centre
for Wireless Technologies.
Hearing Devices
Sometimes, use of mobile communication
devices may cause troubles for wearers of
certain hearing devices. In this case, consult
the manufacturer of your hearing device to
select another model.
Other Medical Devices
For other personal medical devices, contact
your physician or device manufacturer to
find out whether your device is adequately
shielded from electromagnetic interference
generated by mobile communication devices.
General Information on Safe Use
Explosion Hazard Zones
SWITCH OFF the tracker when entering the
explosion hazard zone. Explosion hazard
zones include: fuel stations, box girder decks
on sea vessels, facilities or plants for handling
and storage of fuels or chemicals, areas with
chemicals or solid particles such as grains,
dust or metal powder in atmosphere; and any
other locations where it is usually required to
shut off a vehicle’s engine. Explosion hazard
areas are often (yet not always) expressly
marked.
Blasting Areas
In order to avoid interference with blasting
operations, SWITCH OFF the device in
blasting areas or in any locations marked
with “Two-way radio-communication is
prohibited” signage. Observe the signage
instructions and rules.
