About Bluetooth and Health
Bluetooth wireless technology allows you to use short-range
radio signals to connect a variety of devices, such as bar code
scanners, mobile phones, Pocket PCs, notebook computers,
printers, LAN access points, and many other devices at home or
work. These radio signals replace the cables that have
traditionally connected these devices.
Bluetooth products have small radio transmitters and receivers.
Output power is normally very low, only 15.75 mW. This gives a
working range of approximately 10 meters.
The maximum exposure levels from Bluetooth products are far
below recommended safety guidelines. At most, typical
Bluetooth devices (15.75 mW) reach only one percent of the
prescribed safety levels.
Product Care

• Do not expose your product to lit candles, cigarettes, or cigars,
or to open flames, etc.
• Do not drop, throw or try to bend the product, as rough
treatment could damage it.
• Do not paint your product, as the paint could obstruct parts
and prevent normal use.
• Do not attempt to disassemble your product: a broken
warranty seal will void the warranty. The product does not
contain consumer serviceable components. Should your CHS
