Additional safety information
Small children
Your device and its enhancements may contain small parts. Keep them out of the reach of small children.
Operating environment
Remember to follow any special regulations in force in any area, and always switch off your device when its use is
prohibited or when it may cause interference or danger. Use the device only in its normal operating positions. Do
not place credit cards or other magnetic storage media near the device, because information stored on them may
be erased.
Medical devices
Operation of any equipment emitting radio frequency signals may interfere with the functionality of inadequately
shielded medical devices. Consult a physician or the manufacturer of the medical device to determine if they are
adequately shielded from external radio frequency (RF) energy or if you have any other questions concerning
this topic. Switch off your phone in health care facilities when signs posted in these areas instruct you to do so.
Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.
Implanted medical devices
Manufacturers of medical devices recommend that a minimum distance should be maintained between a wireless
device and an implanted medical device, such as pacemakers or cardioverter defibrillators, to avoid potential
interference with the medical device. Persons who have such devices should:
• Always keep the wireless device more than 20 centimeters (7.8 inches) from the medical device when the
wireless device is turned on.
• Not carry the wireless device in a breast pocket.
• Hold the wireless device to the ear opposite the medical device to minimize the potential for inter-ference.
•
Turn the wireless device off immediately if there is any reason to suspect that interference is taking place.
• Read and follow the directions of the medical device‘s manufacturer.
If you have any questions about using your wireless device with an implanted medical device, consult your health
care provider.
SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage) Compliance
Safety status of Input/Output connections comply with SELV requirements.
Potentially explosive environments
Switch off your device when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere and obey all signs and instructions.
Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death. Switch off the device
at refuelling points such as near gas pumps at service stations. Observe restrictions on the use of radio equipment
in fuel depots, storage, and distribution areas; chemical plants; or where blasting operations are in progress. Areas
with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often but not always clearly marked. They include below deck on boats,
chemical transfer or storage facilities, vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas, and areas where the air contains
chemicals or particles such as grain dust or metal powders.
Sensitive electronic equipment
The current state of research concludes that operational DECT phones normally do not adversely affect electronic
equipment. Nevertheless, you should take some precautions if you want to operate DECT phones in the immediate
vicinity of such equipment like sensitive laboratory equipment. Always keep a minimum distance of 10 cm (3.94“) to
the equipment even when the phone is in standby.
Electrical surges
We recommend the installment of an AC surge arrester in the AC outlet to which this device is connected to avoid
damage to the equipmen t caused by local strikes of lightening or other electrical surges.
