9 NOTES ON SAFETY
9.1
General Safety
It is important to follow any special regulations regarding the use of radio equipment due to the
possibility of radio frequency, RF, interference. Please carefully follow the safety advice given below:
•
Switch OFF your GSM Modem when in an aircraft. The use of cellular telephones in an aircraft
may endanger the operation of the aircraft, disrupt the cellular network and is illegal. Failure to
observe this instruction may lead to suspension or denial of cellular telephone services to the
offender, or legal action or both.
•
Switch OFF your GSM Modem when at a refueling point.
•
Switch OFF your GSM Modem in hospitals and any other place where medical equipment may
be in use.
•
Respect restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots, chemical plants or where
blasting operations are in progress.
•
There may be a hazard associated with the operation of your GSM Modem close to
inadequately protected personal medical devices such as hearing aids and pacemakers. Consult
the manufacturers of the medical device to determine if it is adequately protected.
•
Operation of your GSM Modem close to other electronic equipment may also cause interference
if the equipment is inadequately protected. Observe any warning signs and manufacturers
recommendations.
The modem is designed for and intended to be used in fixed and mobile applications.
Fixed
means that the device is physically secured at one location and is not able to be easily moved
to another location.
Mobile
means that the device is designed to be used in other than fixed locations and generally in
such a way that a separation distance of at least 20 cm (8 inches) is normally maintained between
the transmitter’s antenna and the body of the user or nearby persons.
The Modem is not designed for or intended to be used in portable applications (within 20cm of the
body of the user) and such uses are strictly prohibited.
