Precautions

On Bluetooth communication
(NV-U94T/U74T only)
• Bluetooth wireless technology operates within
a range of about 10 m (about 30 ft).
Maximum communication range may vary
depending on obstacles (person, metal, wall,
etc.) or electromagnetic environment.
• When using the Bluetooth function, install the
unit within 60 cm (about 20 in) from the driver.
• The following conditions may affect the
sensitivity of Bluetooth communication:
– There is an obstacle such as a person, metal,
or wall between this unit and Bluetooth
device (cellphone, etc.).
– A device using 2.4 GHz frequency, such as a
wireless LAN device, cordless telephone, or
microwave oven, is in use near this unit.
• Because Bluetooth devices and wireless LAN
(IEEE802.11b/g) use the same frequency,
microwave interference may occur and result in
communication speed deterioration, noise, or
invalid connection if this unit is used near a
wireless LAN device. In such as case, perform
the following:
– Use this unit at least 10 m (about 30 ft) away
from the wireless LAN device.
– If this unit is used within 10 m (about 30 ft) of
a wireless LAN device, turn off the wireless
LAN device.
– Install this unit and Bluetooth device as near
to each other as possible.
• Microwaves emitting from a Bluetooth device
may affect the operation of electronic medical
devices. Turn off this unit and other Bluetooth
devices in the following locations, as it may
cause an accident:
– where inflammable gas is present, in a
hospital, train, airplane, or a gas station
– near automatic doors or a fire alarm
