∫ Wi-Fi use
≥ This product is restricted to indoor use due to its operation in the 5.15 to 5.25 GHz
frequency range.
FCC requires this product to be used indoors for the frequency range 5.15 to 5.25 GHz
to reduce the potential for harmful interference to co-channel Mobile Satellite systems.
High power radars are allocated as primary users of the 5.25 to 5.35 GHz and 5.65 to
5.85 GHz bands.
These radar stations can cause interference with and/or damage this product.
≥ This transmitter must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other
antenna or transmitter.
≥ The usage of wireless LAN may be restricted depending on the country of use.
Check any relevant laws and regulations in the country or the region before use.

FCC Note:
This product has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed
to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential
installation. This product generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may
cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this
product does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which
can be determined by turning the product off and on, the user is encouraged
to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
≥ Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
≥ Increase the separation between the product and receiver.
≥ Connect the product to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
≥ Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
FCC Caution: To assure continued FCC emission limit compliance, use only
shielded interface cables with ferrite core when connecting to computer or
peripheral devices.
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible
for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate this equipment.
Responsible Party: Panasonic Corporation of North America
Two Riverfront Plaza, Newark, NJ 07102-5490
Support Contact:http://www.panasonic.com/contactinfo
This product complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to
the following two conditions:
1. This product may not cause harmful interference, and
2. This product must accept any interference received, including interference
that may cause undesired operation.
∫ About the AC adaptor
CAUTION!
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or product damage,
≥ Do not install or place this unit in a bookcase, built-in cabinet or in another
confined space. Ensure this unit is well ventilated.
AC adaptor
This AC adaptor operates on AC between 110 V and 240 V.
But
≥ In the U.S.A. and Canada, the AC adaptor must be connected to a 120 V AC
power supply only.
≥ When connecting to an AC supply outside of the U.S.A. or Canada, use a plug
adaptor to suit the AC outlet configuration.
SQT0433 (ENG)

∫ About the battery
≥ Do not heat or expose to flame.
≥ Do not leave the unit (including built-in battery) in a car exposed to dire ct sunli ght for a
long period of time with doors and windows closed.
∫ Using hearing aids with mobile devices
≥ When some wireless mobile devices are used near some hearing devices (hearing
aids and cochlear implants), users may detect a buzzing, humming, or whining noise.
Some hearing devices are more immune than others to this interference noise, and
mobile devices also vary in the amount of interference they generate.
In the event of interference you may want to consult your hearing aid supplier to
discuss solutions.
≥ The wireless telephone industry has developed ratings for some of their mobile
devices, to assist hearing device users in finding mobile devices that may be
compatible with their hearing devices.
Not all mobile devices have been rated.
Mobile devices that are rated have the rating on their box or label located on the box.
The ratings are not guarantees.
Results will vary depending on the user’s hearing device and hearing loss.
If your hearing device happens to be vulnerable to interference, you may not be able to
use a rated mobile device successfully.
Trying out the mobile device with your hearing device is the best way to evaluate it for
your personal needs.
≥ M-Ratings: Mobile devices rated M3 or M4 are likely to generate less interference to
hearing devices than mobile devices that are not labeled.
M4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.
T-Ratings: Mobile devices rated T3 or T4 are likely to be more usable with a hearing
device’s telecoil (“T-Coil Switch” or “Telephone Switch”) than unrated mobile devices.
T4 is the better/higher of the two ratings.
(Note that the hearing aid telecoil must be activated in order for it to function, and that
not all hearing devices have telecoils in them.)
≥ Hearing devices may also be measured for immunity to this type of interference.
Your hearing device manufacturer or hearing health professional may help you find
results for your hearing device.
The more immune your hearing aid is, the less likely you are to experience
interference noise from mobile devices.
The HAC rating and measurement procedure are described in the American National
Standards Institute (ANSI) C63.19 standard.

∫ Hearing aid compatibility
This mobile device has been tested and rated for use with hearing aids for some of the
wireless technologies that it uses.
However, there may be some newer wireless technologies used in this mobile device
that have not been tested yet for use with hearing aids.
It is important to try the different features of this mobile device thoroughly and in different
locations, using your hearing aid or cochlear implant, to determine if you hear any
interfering noise.
Consult your service provider or the manufacturer of this mobile device for information on
hearing aid compatibility.
If you have questions about return or exchange policies, consult your service provider or
mobile retailer.

Additional safety precautions
∫ Posted facilities
Turn off the product when in hospitals, health care facilities, or any facility where posted
notices require you to do so.
Hospitals and health care facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to
external RF energy.
∫ Pacemakers
≥ The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum
separation of six (6) inches be maintained between a handheld wireless product and a
pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker.
These recommendations are consistent with the independent research by and
recommendations of Wireless Technology Research.
