IP68 as described by the
international standard IEC
60529 - Degrees of Protection
provided by Enclosures [IP
Code]; test conditions:
15-35°C, 86-106 kPa, 5.0 feet,
for 30 minutes). Despite this
classification, your device is
not impervious to water
damage in any situation. It is

important that all
compartments are closed
tightly.

Follow these tips carefully to
prevent damage to the device.

•

Whenever your device gets wet,
dry it thoroughly with a clean,
soft cloth.

•

Do not expose the device to salt
water or ionized water, or to

with fresh water immediately
and dry it thoroughly with a
clean, soft cloth. Failure to rinse
the device in fresh water and dry

Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals

The U.S. Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) has
published information for
consumers relating to Radio
Frequency (RF) exposure from
wireless phones. The FDA
publication includes the
following information:

Health and Safety 14

Do cell phones pose a
health hazard?

Many people are concerned
that cell phone radiation will
cause cancer or other serious
health hazards. The weight of
scientific evidence has not
linked cell phones with any
health problems.

Cell phones emit low levels of
Radio Frequency (RF) energy.
Over the past 15 years,
scientists have conducted
hundreds of studies looking at
the biological effects of the
radio frequency energy emitted
by cell phones. While some

15

researchers have reported
biological changes associated
with RF energy, these studies
have failed to be replicated.
The majority of studies
published have failed to show
an association between
exposure to radio frequency
from a cell phone and health
problems.

The low levels of RF cell
phones emit while in use are in
the microwave frequency
range. They also emit RF at
substantially reduced time
intervals when in the stand-by
mode. Whereas high levels of
RF can produce health effects

Health and Safety 16

(by heating tissue), exposure to
low level RF that does not
produce heating effects causes
no known adverse health
effects.

The biological effects of radio
frequency energy should not be
confused with the effects from
other types of electromagnetic
energy.

Very high levels of
electromagnetic energy, such
as is found in X-rays and
gamma rays, can ionize
biological tissues. Ionization is
a process where electrons are
stripped away from their
