Notices for Customers in Canada

This device complies with Part 15 of FCC Rules and Industry Canada licenceexempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subjec t to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.

FCC/IC RF Exposure Statement

The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are associated with using low power wireless devices. There is no proof, however, that these low power wireless devices are absolutely safe. Low power Wireless devices emit low levels of radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while being used. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue), exposure of low-level RF that does not produce heating effects causes no known adverse health effects. Many studies of low-level RF exposures have not found any biological effects. Some studies have suggested that some biological effects might occur, but such findings have not been confirmed by additional research. The 1 J5, which is equipped with a DW092 (FCC ID:EW4DW092 / IC ID:4634A-3149EC) wireless LAN module, has been tested and found to comply with FCC/IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines in Supplement C to OET65 and RSS-102 of the IC radio frequency (RF) Exposure rules. Please refer to the SAR test report that was uploaded to FCC website.

Notices for Customers in Europe

Hereby, Nikon Corporation, declares that the 1 J5 is in compliance with the essential requirements and other relevant provisions of Directive 1999/5/EC. The declaration of conformity may be consulted at http://imaging.nikon.com/sup port/pdf/DoC_1J5.pdf

Security

Although one of the benefits of this product is that it allows others to freely connect for the wireless exchange of data anywhere within its range, the following may occur if security is not enabled:

• Data theft: Malicious third-parties may intercept wireless transmissions to steal user IDs, passwords, and other personal information.

• Unauthorized access: Unauthorized users may gain access to the network and alter data or perform other malicious actions. Note that due the design of wireless networks, specialized attacks may allow unauthorized access even when security is enabled.
