Safety Information
IMPORTANT!
Please read the following information carefully
before installing and using the IsatDock PRO.
Failing to follow instructions may compromise the
safety of the product and may result in personal
injury and/or equipment damage. Please consult
your supplier if you have any further questions.
The IsatDock PRO is a low power docking
station for the IsatPhone Pro handset. When ON,
it will charge the IsatPhone Pro handset whilst
docked in the IsatDock PRO.
Refer to the appropriate section of this IsatDock
PRO Installation & User Manual for additional
safety information.
• Store the system in a cool and dry area.
• Do not submerge the system in water.
• Do not place foreign metal objects or debris
in the system. If debris enters into the system,
please return to factory for service.
WARNING
DO NOT open equipment. There are no user-
serviceable parts inside.
If a DC power supply is to be used, its output must
comply with the Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV)
requirements of IEC60950.
All connectors must only be connected to equipment
ports which comply with the Safety Extra Low
Voltage (SELV) requirements of IEC60950.
POTENTIALLY EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES
• Turn your phone OFF and DO NOT remove
your battery or remove the IsatPhone Pro
handset from the cradle when you are in any
area with a potentially explosive atmosphere.
• Obey all signs and instructions.
• Sparks from your battery in such areas could
cause an explosion or re resulting in bodily
injury or even death.
• Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere
are often but not always clearly marked.
They include, but are not limited to:
» fuelling areas such as gasoline stations
» below deck on boats;
» fuel or chemical transfer or storage
facilities;
» areas where fuel odors are present (for
example, if a gas/propane leak occurs in a
car or home);
» areas where the air contains chemicals
or particles, such as grain, dust, or
metal powders;
» any other area where you normally would
be advised to turn o your vehicle engine.
WARNING
ROAD SAFETY COMES FIRST!
Do not use a hand-held cellular terminal, satellite
phone or mobile when driving a vehicle, unless it
is securely mounted in a holder for speaker phone
operation. Before making a call with a handheld
terminal, satellite phone or mobile, park the vehicle
stationary. Please obey local road laws for hands-
free speakerphone operation. Speakerphones
(hands-free) must be installed by qualied
personnel. Faulty installation or operation can
constitute a safety hazard.
IMPORTANT
Cellular & Satellite terminals or mobiles operate using
radio signals and communication networks. Because
of this, the connection cannot be guaranteed at all
times or under all conditions. Therefore, you should
never rely solely upon any wireless device for essential
communications, for example emergency calls.

• Do not operate your satellite telephone
when a person is within 55cm of the
antenna. A person or object within 55cm
of the antenna could impair call quality
and may cause the phone to operate at
a higher power level than necessary and
expose that person to RF energy in excess
of that established by the FCC RF Exposure
Guidelines.
• As a precaution, please maintain the
maximum body distance possible from the
antenna during call transmission.
Safety Transceiver IsatPhone Pro
Your handset is a low power radio transmitter
and receiver. When it is ON, it receives and
also sends out radio frequency (RF) signals.
(NOTE: Refer to Inmarsat IsatPhone Pro
Manual for additional Information)
• The Inmarsat IsatPhone Pro handset has an
in-built transceiver which is designed to be
used with an external antenna. This antenna
transmits RF energy. The BEAM antenna
(tted via an extension coaxial cable to the
cradle) must be located more than 55cm
from the human body (person) when in
operation.
• International agencies have set standards and
recommendations for the protection of public
exposure to RF electromagnetic energy. These
standards are based on extensive scientic
review by scientists, engineers, and physicians
from universities, government health agencies,
and industry groups They review the available
body of research to develop ANSI standard.
These ANSI standards are reviewed regularly for
research development.
