Any radio-based equipment can potentially cause interference with other equipment and can be
interfered from other equipment. This also applies for DECT equipment. However due to the
very low transmission power level the changes for interference are very small. Research proves
that operational DECT phones normally don't influence electronic equipment however some
precautions must be taken into account for sensitive electronic equipment e.g. sensitive
laboratory equipment. When DECT phones operate in straight nearness of sensitive electronic
equipment incidental influence can appear. You are advised not to place the DECT phone on or
close (less then 10 cm) to this kind of equipment, even in standby mode.
