7. Safety Recommendations (For Information Only) For the safe and efficient operation of your GSM application based on the WMP module, please read the following information carefully. 7.1. 7.1.1. RF Safety General Information Your GSM terminal is based on the GSM standard for cellular technology. The GSM standard is spread all over the world. It covers Europe, Asia and some parts of America and Africa. This is the most used telecommunication standard.
Safety Recommendations (For Information Only) User Guide Use only the supplied or approved antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications or attachments could damage the terminal and may contravene local RF emission regulations or invalidate type approval. 7.2. General Safety 7.2.1. Driving Check the laws and the regulations regarding the use of cellular devices in the area where you have to drive as you always have to comply with them.
Safety Recommendations (For Information Only) User Guide 7.2.6. Children Do not allow children to play with your GSM terminal. It is not a toy. Children could hurt themselves or others (by poking themselves or others in the eye with the antenna, for example). Children could damage the modem, or make calls that increase your modem bills. 7.2.7. Blasting Areas To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your unit OFF when in a « blasting area » or in areas posted: « turn off two-way radio ».
