Operating environment
Remember to follow any special regulations in force in any area and always power off your Wireless LAN Adapter whenever it is forbidden to use it, or when it may cause interference or danger.
When connecting the Wireless LAN Adapter or any accessory to another device, read its user's guide for detailed safety instructions. Do not connect incompatible products.
As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, users are advised that for the satisfactory operation of the equipment and for the safety of personnel, it is recommended that the Wireless LAN Adapter should only be used in the normal operating position.
Electronic devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio frequency (RF) signals. However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals from your Wireless LAN Adapter.
Hearing aids
Some digital wireless devices may interfere with some hearing aids.
Other medical devices
Operation of any radio transmitting equipment, including a Wireless LAN Adapter, may interfere with the functionality of inadequately protected medical devices. Consult a physician or the manufacturer of the medical device to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF energy or if you have any questions. Power off your Wireless LAN Adapter in health care facilities when any regulations 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.
Posted facilities
Power off your Wireless LAN Adapter in any facility where posted notices so require.
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of 20 cm (6 inches) be maintained between a Wireless LAN Adapter and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the independent research by and recommendations of Wireless Technology Research. Persons with pacemakers should always keep the Wireless LAN Adapter more than 20 cm (6 inches) from their pacemaker when the Wireless LAN Adapter is powered on. If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, power off your Wireless LAN Adapter immediately.
Potentially explosive atmospheres
Do not use your Wireless LAN Adapter 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.
Users are reminded of the need to observe restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots (fuel storage and distribution areas), chemical plants or where blasting operations are in progress.
