Risk of harm caused by unintentional noise that may
muffle important signals
System dysfunctions:
The Amigo system will cease to function if the batteries have run out. The system may
also produce a high whistling noise (feedback) if the battery is low, or if it is subjected
to loud sound while the microphone is off but the receiver is still on. Users should be
aware that these sounds should not be confused with warning sounds – e.g. car horns in
traffic.
Use in aircrafts:
• Amigo should not be used on aircrafts without the permission of the flight crew.
Interference
Please note that Amigo can cause interference with other medical devices. Such
interference can also be caused by radio signals, power line disturbances, airport
metal detectors, electromagnetic fields from other medical devices and electrostatic
discharges.
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions:
1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and
