The AffloVest is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment specified below The customer or user of the
AffloVest should ensure that it is used in such an environment

Portable and mobile RF communications equipment should be
used no closer to any part of the AffloVest, including the cables,
than the recommended distance calculated from the equation
applicable to the transmit frequency
Recommended distance:
d = 1 2 m P
d=1 2 m P for 80 MHz to 800 MHz d=2 3 m P for 800 MHz to 2 5 GHz
Where P is the maximum output power rating of the transmitter in
watts (W) according to the transmitter manufacturer and d is the
recommended distance in meters (m) The field strength of fixed RF
transmitters, as determined by an electromagnetic site survey(a)
should be less than the compliance level in each frequency
range(b) Interference may occur in the vicinity of equipment
marked with the following symbol

NOTE 1: The higher frequency range applies at 80 MHz and 800 MHz.
NOTE 2: These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects and persons.
(a) The field strength from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio telephones and mobile terrestrial radio equipment, amateur radio stations, AM and FM radio
broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment in terms of fixed RF transmitters, an electromag-
netic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the AffloVest is used exceeds the applicable compliance level specified above,
the AffloVest should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance features are observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as re-orienting
or relocating the AffloVest.
(b) The field strength should be less than 3 V/m over the frequency range from 150 kHz to 80 MHz.
