2. Safety Measurements Following items contain simple recommendations relevant to the use of the Option datacard, please read them carefully. Not following these guidelines can cause harm to the card, yourself or other persons in your immediate environment. General recommendations for use Always treat your product with care and keep in a clean and dust-free place. Do not expose your product to open flames or lit tobacco products. Do not expose to liquid, moisture or humidity.
Do not use in hospitals Follow any regulations or rules. In most cases in hospitals, datacards do not pose any problems. However, using a datacard close to sensitive electronic devices could possibly result in interference. If you intend to use your laptop/PDA in such areas, you SHOULD remove the datacard. People are usually asked to switch off all electronic devices in some selected areas in hospitals, a recommendation that Option fully supports.
Hearing devices People with hearing aids or other cochlear implants may experience interfering noises when using mobile devices or when one is nearby. The level of interference will depend on the type of datacard, the type of hearing device and the distance between the two. Interference may be reduced by keeping a distance between the mobile device and hearing device. Children Do NOT allow children to play with datacard. They could hurt themselves or others, or could accidentally damage the datacard.
