IMPORTANT NOTE: To comply with FCC RF exposure compliance
requirements, the antenna must not be co-located or operating in
conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
Radio Frequency Interference Requirements and SAR
The FCC with its action in ET Docket 93-62 has adopted a safety
standard for human exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) electromagnetic
energy emitted by FCC certified equipment. The A790 laptop with
wireless module meets the Human Exposure limits found in OET Bulletin
65, 2001, and ANSI/IEEE C95.1, 1992. Proper operation of this radio
according to the instructions found in this manual will result in exposure
substantially below the FCC’s recommended limits. The following safety
precautions should be observed:
z Do not disassemble to gain access or touch the radio transmitter or it’s
antenna for any purpose.
z Do not operate the radio or attempt to transmit data unless the antenna
is connected; if not, the radio may be damaged.
Use in specific environments:
z The use of wireless devices in hazardous locations is limited by the
constraints posed by the safety directors of such environments.
z The use of wireless devices on airplanes is governed by the Federal
Aviation Administration (FAA).
z The use of wireless devices in hospitals is restricted to the limits set
forth by each hospital.
