IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Q Operating environment
Remember to follow any special regulations in force in any area and always
switch off your radio when its use is prohibited or when it may cause
interference or danger. Use the radio only in its normal operating positions.
To maintain compliance with radio frequency exposure guidelines only use
enhancements approved by EADS for use with this radio. When the radio is
on and being worn on the body, always use an approved holder or carrying
case.
When the earpiece is used, hold the radio as you would any telephone, with
the antenna pointed up and over your shoulder. When the loudspeaker is
used, hold the radio approximately 10 cm (4 inches) away from the mouth
with the antenna pointed up and away from the face and eyes.
Using two TETRA devices closeby may cause them to interfere with each
other, for example, when two such devices are in the same vehicle. If you
experience such interference, separate the two devices until the interference
stops.
Q Medical devices
Operation of any radio transmitting equipment, including wireless phones,
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. Switch off your radio 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.
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of 6 in.
(15.3 cm) be maintained between a wireless phone 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:
