1.1.10 CHILDREN

Do not allow children to play with your modem. It is not a toy. Children

could hurt themselves or others (by poking themselves or others in the

eye with the antenna, for example). Children could damage the modem,

or make calls that increase your modem bills.

To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your unit OFF when

in a « blasting area » or in areas posted : « turn off two-way radio ».

Construction crew often use remote control RF devices to set off

explosives.

Turn your modem OFF when in any area with a potentially explosive

atmosphere. It is rare, but your modem or its accessories could generate

sparks. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in

bodily injury or even death.

Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always,

clearly marked. They include fuelling areas such as petrol stations; below

decks 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 flammable gas, liquid, or explosives, in the

compartment of your vehicle which contains your modem or accessories.

Before using your modem in a vehicle powered by liquefied petroleum

gas (such as propane or butane) ensure that the vehicle complies with the

relevant fire and safety regulations of the country in which the vehicle is

to be used.

As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, users are advised that

for satisfactory operation and for the safety of personnel, it is

recommended that no part of the human body be allowed to come too

close to the antenna during operation of the equipment.

The radio equipment shall be connected to the antenna via a non-

radiating 50Ohm coaxial cable.

The antenna shall be mounted in such a position that no part of the

human body will normally rest close to any part of the antenna. It is also

recommended to use the equipment not close to medical devices as for

example hearing aids and pacemakers.
