Regulations
Important Notice
CE Marking
Due to the transmission and reception properties of cellular
communications, data can occasionally be lost or delayed. This can be
due to the variation in radio signal strength that results from changes in
the characteristics of the radio transmission path.
This device has been tested to and conforms to the regulatory
requirements of the European Union and has attained CE Marking.
The CE Mark is a conformity marking consisting of the letters “CE”.
The CE Mark applies to products regulated by certain European health,
safety and environmental protection legislation. The CE Mark is
obligatory for products it applies to: the manufacturer affixes the
marking in order to be allowed to sell his product in the European
market.
Although data loss is rare, the environment where you operate the
C170 Series may adversely affect communications. Variations in radio
signal strength are referred to as fading. Fading is caused by several
different factors including signal reflection, the ionosphere, and
interference from other radio channels.
BandRich Inc. or its partners will not be held responsible for damages
of any kind resulting from the delays or errors in data transmitted or
received by the BandLuxe C170 Series, or failure of the BandLuxe
C170 Series to transmit or receive such data.
BandLuxe™ is a registered trademark of BandRich Inc.
Potential Hazards
Do not operate the BandLuxe C170 Series in an environment that may
be susceptible to radio interference resulting in danger; specifically:
Areas where prohibited by the law.
- Follow any special rules and regulations and obey all signs and
notices. Always turn off the host device and remove the C170
Series from the card slot when instructed to do so, or when you
suspect that it may cause interference or danger.
Where explosive atmospheres may be present.
- Do not operate your C170 Series in any area where a potentially
explosive atmosphere may exist. Sparks in such areas could cause
an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death. Be
aware and comply with all signs and instructions.
Users are advised not to operate the C170 Series while at a
refueling point or service station. Users are reminded to observe
restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots (fuel
storage and distribution areas), chemical plants or where blasting
operations are in progress.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often but not
always clearly marked. Potential locations can include gas stations,
below deck on boats, chemical transfer or storage facilities,
vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane),
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.
Near Medical and life support equipment.
- Do not operate your C170 Series in any area where medical
equipment, life support equipment, or near any equipment that may
be susceptible to any form of radio interference. In such areas, the
host communications device must be turned off. The C170 Series
may transmit signals that could interfere with this equipment.
On an aircraft, either on the ground or airborne.
- In addition to FAA requirements, many airline regulations state that
you must suspend wireless operations before boarding an airplane.
Please ensure that the host device is turned off and your C170
Series is removed from the card slot prior to boarding aircraft in
order to comply with these regulations. The C170 Series can
transmit signals that could interfere with various onboard systems
and controls.
While operating a vehicle.
- The driver or mobile network operator of any vehicle should not
operate a wireless data device while in control of a vehicle. Doing
so will detract from the driver or mobile network operator’s control
and operation of that vehicle. In some countries, operating such
communications devices while in control of a vehicle is an offense.
This product conforms to the essential requirements of the R&TTE
directive 1999/5/EC in order to attain CE Marking. A notified body has
determined that this device has properly demonstrated that the
requirements of the directive have been met and has issued a
favorable certificate of expert opinion. As such the device will bear the
notified body number 0678 after the CE mark.
The CE Marking is not a quality mark. Foremost, it refers to the safety
rather than to the quality of a product. Secondly, CE Marking is
mandatory for the product it applies to, whereas most quality markings
are voluntary.
Marking: The product shall bear the CE mark, the notified body
number(s) as depicted to the right. CE 0678.
15.21 Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) Statement
You are cautioned that changes or modifications not expressly
approved by the part responsible for compliance could void the user’s
authority to operate the equipment.
15.105(b) Federal Communications
