Understanding safety alert messages

H63998 Revision B
In the Vicinity of Blasting Work and in Explosive Environments:
Never use the Satellite Terminal where blasting work is in
progress. Observe all restrictions and follow any regulations or
rules. Areas with a potentially explosive environment are often,
but not always, clearly marked. Do not use the Terminal while at a
petrol filling station. Do not use near fuel or chemicals.
Qualified Service: Do not attempt to disassemble your Satellite
Terminal. The unit does not contain consumer-serviceable
components. Only qualified service personnel may install or
repair equipment.
Accessories: Use Hughes approved accessories only. Use of
non-approved accessories may result in loss of performance,
damage to the Satellite Terminal, fire, electric shock or injury.
Connecting Devices: Never connect incompatible devices to the
Satellite Terminal. When connecting the Satellite Terminal to any
other device, read the device's User Manual for detailed safety
instructions.
Pacemakers: The various brands and models of cardiac
pacemakers available exhibit a wide range of immunity levels to
radio signals. Therefore, people who wear a cardiac pacemaker
and who want to use a Satellite Terminal should seek the advice
of their cardiologist. If, as a pacemaker user, you are still
concerned about interaction with the Satellite Terminal, we
suggest you follow these guidelines:
Maintain a distance of one meter from the main antenna front
and sides and your pacemaker
Refer to your pacemaker product literature for information on
your particular device
If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking
place, turn off your Satellite Terminal immediately.
Hearing Aids: Most new models of hearing aids are immune to
radio frequency interference from Satellite Terminals that are
more than 2 meters away. Many types of older hearing aids may
be susceptible to interference, making it very difficult to use
them near a Terminal. Should interference be experienced,
maintain additional separation between you and the Satellite
Terminal.
Electrical Storms: Operation of the Satellite Terminal during
electrical storms may result in severe personal injury or death.
