Warning: Medical equipment interference
Spectralink recommends that standard acceptance procedures be followed prior to
operating this equipment in proximity of life-support systems.
Operational Warnings
Certain operational environments are potentially hazardous. Please read the following text
carefully to ensure that you understand the handset’s operating conditions.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Do not take your handset into any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere. Do not remove,
install, or charge batteries in such areas. Sparks in a potentially explosive atmosphere can
cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.
Warning: Explosive Atmospheres
Avoid areas with potentially explosive atmospheres include fueling areas such as
lower decks on boats, fuel, or chemical transfer or storage facilities, areas where the
air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust, or metal powders, and any
other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.
Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are often marked with signs, but not
always.
Electromagnetic Interference and Compatibility
Nearly every electronic device is susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI) if
inadequately shielded, designed, or otherwise configured for electromagnetic compatibility.
Facilities
To avoid electromagnetic interference and/or compatibility conflicts, turn off your handset in any
facility where posted notices instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be
using equipment that is sensitive to external radio frequency (RF) energy.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that you maintain a minimum
separation of 6 inches (15 cm) between a handheld, wireless-radio product and a pacemaker.
