General Safety
The device is designed for and intended to be used in fixed and mobile applications. Fixed means the device is
physically secured at one location and cannot be easily moved to another location. Mobile means the device is
used in other than fixed locations.
CAUTION:
Maintain a separation distance of at least 20 cm (8 inches) between the transmitter's antenna and
the body of the user or nearby persons. The device is not designed for or intended to be used in portable
applications within 20 cm (8 inches) of the user's body.
Attention:
Maintenir une distance d'au moins 20 cm (8 po) entre l'antenne du récepteur et le corps de
l'utilisateur ou à proximité de personnes. Le modem n'est pas conçu pour, ou destinés à être utilisés dans les
applications portables, moins de 20 cm du corps de l'utilisateur.
Interference with Pacemakers and Other Medical Devices
Potential interference
Radio frequency energy (RF) from cellular devices can interact with some electronic devices. This is
electromagnetic interference (EMI). The FDA helped develop a detailed test method to measure EMI of implanted
cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators from cellular devices. This test method is part of the Association for the
Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI) standard. This standard allows manufacturers to ensure that
cardiac pacemakers and defibrillators are safe from cellular device EMI.
The FDA continues to monitor cellular devices for interactions with other medical devices. If harmful interference
occurs, the FDA will assess the interference and work to resolve the problem.
Precautions for pacemaker wearers
If EMI occurs, it could affect a pacemaker in one of three ways:
Stop the pacemaker from delivering the stimulating pulses that regulate the heart's rhythm.
Cause the pacemaker to deliver the pulses irregularly.
Cause the pacemaker to ignore the heart's own rhythm and deliver pulses at a fixed rate.
Based on current research, cellular devices do not pose a significant health problem for most pacemaker wearers.
However, people with pacemakers may want to take simple precautions to be sure that their device doesn't cause
a problem.
Keep the device on the opposite side of the body from the pacemaker to add extra distance between the
pacemaker and the device.
Avoid placing a turned-on device next to the pacemaker (for example, don't carry the device in a shirt or
jacket pocket directly over the pacemaker).
Vehicle Safety
When using your device in a vehicle:
Do not use this device while driving.
Respect national regulations on the use of cellular devices in vehicles.
