Notes on radio interface

■ Turn the device oﬀ when you are in an airplane,

a hospital, an operating theater, or in the vicinity

of an electronic medical system. The transmitted

radio waves can aﬀect the functionality of sensi-

tive devices.

■ Keep the device at least 20 cm (8”) away from a

pacemaker or implanted deﬁbrillator, as the prop-

er functioning of the pacemaker or the implanted

deﬁbrillator could be aﬀected by radio waves.

■ The transmitted radio waves can cause noise

interference in hearing aids.

■ Do not use the device with the radio components

turned on near ﬂammable gases or in a potential-

ly explosive atmosphere (e.g. in a paint shop), as

the transmitted radio waves can cause an explo-

sion or ignite a ﬁre.

■ The range of the radio waves is dependent on

the environmental and the ambient conditions.

■ Data transmissions via a wireless connection can

be intercepted by unauthorized third parties.
