Medical Devices
Pacemakers
Keep the antennas of this data terminal at least 8 inches or 20cm away from any person’s body. Along with ensuring compliance with the RF energy exposure limits (as instructed in the RF Energy Exposure section previously), this separation distance meets or exceeds the distance recommendation of pacemaker manufacturers and the FCC to avoid interference with pacemakers.
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless radios may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may want to consult your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately shielded from RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.
Driver Safety
Always abide by the laws and regulations on the use of computers and/or integrated radios in the area where you drive.
When using your laptop and/or radio while driving, please:
•Give full attention to driving and to the road.
•Pull off the road and park before using the equipment if driving conditions so require.
