INTERFERENCE:
Radio Frequency Interference:
Radio frequency emissions from electronic equipment can
negatively affect the operation of other electronic equipment,
causing them to malfunction. Although Wireless PTT Handset is
designed, tested and manufactured to comply with regulations
governing radio frequency emission in countries such as the
United States, Canada, the European Union, and Japan, the
wireless transmitters and electrical circuits in the PTT system may
cause interference in other electronic equipment. Therefore, please
take the following precautions:
I.
Aircraft: Use of Wireless Handset may be prohibited while
travelling in aircraft.
II.
Vehicles: radio frequency emissions from Wireless Handset
may affect electronic systems in motor vehicles. Check
with the manufacturer or its representative regarding your
vehicle.
III.
Pacemakers: The Health Industry Manufacturers
Association recommends that a minimum separation
of 15 cm (6 inches) be maintained between a handheld
Wireless Handset and a pacemaker to avoid potential
interference with the pacemaker. Persons with
pacemakers:
• Should always keep Wireless Handset more than 15 cm
(6 inches) from the pacemaker when turned on.
• Should not carry Wireless Handset in a breast pocket.
• Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize
the potential for interference. If you have any reason
to suspect that interference is taking place, turn the
Wireless Handset off immediately.
• The Wireless handset may interfere with some hearing
aids. If you experience interference, consult the hearing
aid manufacturer or your physician for alternatives or
remedies.
Other Medical Devices: If you use any other personal
medical device, consult the device manufacturer or your
physician to determine if it is adequately shielded from
radio frequency emissions from Wireless Handset.
