from infants and small children.
· SoundGate should not be used in an aircraft
unless specically permitted by the ight
personnel.
· SoundGate should not be operated in explosive
environments such as mines.
· For safety reasons the neck strap should never

· Interference can also be caused by power lines
disturbances, airport metal detectors, electromag-
netic elds from medical devices, radio signals
and electrostatic discharges.
· Although unlikely, the digital inductive signals
tranmitted by the SoundGate could potentially
interfere with medical devices such as pace-

recipients not to carry and use the SoundGate
in a breast pocket or around the neck. In this
case we recommend its use as remote control
operated from a trouser pocket or purse.
