human exposure to RF electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC-certified
equipment. Cisco Aironet products meet the uncontrolled environmental limits
found in OET-65 and ANSI C95.1, 1991. Proper operation of this radio device
according to the instructions in this publication will result in user exposure
substantially below the FCC recommended limits.

Do not hold any component containing a radio such that the antenna is very
•
close to or touching any exposed parts of the body, especially the face or eyes,
while transmitting.
• Do not operate the radio or attempt to transmit data unless the antenna is
connected; otherwise, the radio may be damaged.
Use in specific environments:
•
– The use of wireless devices in hazardous locations is limited to the
constraints posed by the safety directors of such environments.
– The use of wireless devices on airplanes is governed by the Federal
Aviation Administration (FAA).
