ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE/COMPATIBILITY Nearly every electronic device is susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI) if inadequately shielded, designed, or otherwise configured for electromagnetic compatibility. To avoid electromagnetic interference and/or compatibility conflicts, do not use this device in any facility where posted notices instruct you to do so. In aircraft, use of any radio frequency devices must be in accordance with applicable regulations. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that is sensitive to external RF energy. With medical devices, maintain a minimum separation of 15 cm (6 inches) between pacemakers and wireless devices and some wireless radios may interfere with some hearing aids. If other personal medical devices are being used in the vicinity of wireless devices, ensure that the device has been adequately shielded from RF energy. In a domestic environment this product may cause radio interference in which case the user may be required to take adequate measures. WARNING  Both active components contain rechargeable lithium- Ion batteries that are not user replaceable.  Do NOT incinerate, puncture, heat or damage your battery operated device.  Charge only on approved docking stations sold with the product.
