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 RF energy or if you have any other
questions concerning this topic. Switch off your device 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
of 20 centimeters (7.8 inches) 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 to SELV requirements.
Warning: To avoid electric shock, do not connect safety extra-
low voltage (SELV) circuits to telephone-network voltage (TNV)
circuits. LAN ports contain SELV circuits, and PSTN ports
contain TNV circuits. Some LAN and PSTN ports both use RJ-
45 (8P8C) connectors. Use caution when connecting cables.

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.
important battery information
This product uses a rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery 3.7V, 650mAh.
Only use batteries with “snom” brand and P/N: 60020438 or 60020438
that came with the handset or replacement batteries approved by snom
technology AG. Do not use any other type of battery, since this may
lead to leakage, fire, explosion, or other dangerous situations. In order
to replace or remove the battery, you must first remove the battery cover
of the handset. Never disassemble, alter, or short-circuit batteries or use
them for purposes other than the intended one. Charge battery only within
the snom m9 handset placed in the snom m9 charger that came with the
product.
