Safety Information

Exposure to Radio Frequency Radiation

The radiated output power of the this internal wireless
radio is far below the FCC radio frequency exposure
limits. Nevertheless, the wireless radio shall be used in
such a manner that the radio is 20 cm (200 mm) or further
from the human body.

The internal wireless radio operates within guidelines
found in radio frequency safety standards and recom­mendations, which reflect the consensus of the scientific
community.

SAFETY GUIDELINES 23

The radio manufacturer believes the internal wireless
radio is safe for use by consumers. The level of energy
emitted is far less than the electromagnetic energy emit­ted by wireless devices such as mobile phones. However,
the use of wireless radios may be restricted in some
situations or environments, such as aboard airplanes. If
you are unsure of restrictions, you are encouraged to ask
for authorization before turning on the wireless radio.
