Guidance and manufacturer's declaration – warnings
Warning
The use of electrical components and accessories other than those specified or provid-
ed by the manufacturer may cause increased electromagnetic interference or reduced
immunity to electromagnetic interference and result in faulty operation of the device.
Warning
Portable HF communications equipment (e.g., radios, antenna cables) should not be
used within 30 cm* of any parts as specified by the manufacturer or of the ATMOS C 451
cables. Failure to do so may lead to a reduction in the device's performance.
 *The distance may be reduced at higher immunity test levels.
Warning
Placement on top of or next to another device should be avoided. This could result in
faulty operation. If such placement cannot be avoided, the proper functioning of the
device must be monitored regularly. If possible, please switch off any nearby devices
that are not in use.
