Your iCON 451 is like a mobile phone
Your iCON 451 uses the same technology as a mobile phone. It is important that you always obey all safety regulations
related to mobile phone use. If you have any doubt about the safe operation of your iCON 451 you should remove the
iCON 451 from the PC and seek advice from authorized personnel.
This device may not be connected to a USB hub, nor to a PC network nor to a USB 1.0 interface.

laptop.
1.3 Ambient temperatures: Do not expose the iCON 451 or the antenna to ambient temperatures beyond the range of
-10 and +55 degrees Celsius.
1.4 Explosive atmosphere: Turn off your PC in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere. It is rare, but your
PC could generate sparks, which could cause an explosion or fire. Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are
not always clearly marked. They include fuelling areas (petrol filling stations), below deck on boats, fuel or chemical
transfer or storage facilities and areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal
powders. Do not transport or store your PC and accessories in the compartment of a vehicle which contains flammable
gas, liquid or explosives.
1.5 Blasting areas – construction sites: Turn off your PC when in a blasting area in order to avoid interfering with
two-way radios used in blasting operations.
1.6 Do not use on aircraft: Using a wireless devices on aircraft can cause interference and is illegal. Remove your
iCON 451 if you intend to use your PC whilst in an aircraft. Do not use it when the plane is on the ground without
permission from the aircraft crew.
1.7 Do not use in hospitals: Please ensure you follow any local regulations or rules. People are often asked to switch
off all electronic devices in some areas of a hospital. This is a recommendation that Option
®
fully supports. Using the
iCON 451 close to sensitive electronic devices could possibly result in interference. If you intend to use your PC in
such areas, you must remove the iCON 451.
1.8 Interference from radio signals: Option
®
relies on advice from health authorities and relevant expert bodies about
potentially undesirable reactions to radio emissions from the iCON 451.
