Bluetooth
The products with Bluetooth
radio frequency electromagnetic energy. The level of energy emitted by devices
with Bluetooth wireless technology however is much less than the
electromagnetic energy emitted by wireless devices such as mobile phones.
Because products with Bluetooth wireless technology operate within the
guidelines found in radio frequency safety standards and recommendations,
TOSHIBA believes Bluetooth wireless technology is safe for use by consumers.
These standards and recommendations reflect the consensus of the scientific
community and result from deliberations of panels and committees of scientists
who continually review and interpret the extensive research literature.
In some situations or environments, the use of Bluetooth wireless technology
may be restricted by the proprietor of the building or responsible representatives
of the organization. These situations may for example include:
❖
Using the equipment with Bluetooth wireless technology on board
airplanes, or
❖
In any other environment where the risk of interference to other devices or
services is perceived or identified as harmful.
If you are uncertain of the policy that applies on the use of wireless devices in a
specific organization or environment (e.g. airports), you are encouraged to ask for
authorization to use the device with Bluetooth wireless technology prior to
turning on the equipment.

Wireless Interoperability

Wireless LAN products are designed to be interoperable with any wireless LAN
product that is based on Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) radio
technology, and is compliant to:
❖
The IEEE 802.11 Standard on Wireless LANs (Revision A/B/G), as defined
and approved by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers.
❖
The Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi
The "Wi-Fi CERTIFIED" logo is a certification mark of the Wi-Fi Alliance.

Exposure to Radio Frequency Radiation
The radiated output power of the Bluetooth module is far below the FCC
radio frequency exposure limits. Nevertheless, the Bluetooth module shall
be used in such a manner that the potential for human contact during normal
operation is minimized.
