VSP Gateway User Guide 24 Warnings                                   Due to the risk of ignition or fire, the VSP system is not intended for use in a hyperbaric chamber, within an oxygen tent or in the presence of flammable anesthetics / medical gases.  To prevent an allergic reaction, do not use the VSP system or accessories if you have a known allergy to nickel, silver or other metals. The VSP system is not defibrillation-proof. Exposure to defibrillation (including ICDs) may damage the VSP. The lay user of the VSP system should not take any actions of a medical or clinical nature based on his/her understanding or interpretation of monitoring without consulting a healthcare professional. Do not operate the VSP system in combination with the following medical electronic devices as this may cause a malfunction of this device:  Electronic life support systems such as an artificial heart/lung.
VSP Gateway User Guide 25 Precautions          The VSP System generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. The VSP System employs cellular technology.  The location of the VSP System and the associated environment, including cellular phone coverage in the particular area, may cause transmission interruption or delay. Do not open or attempt to repair any part of the system. Only authorized service personnel may repair the system components. To avoid damage to the system, the system and accessories should be kept away from extreme heat, including placement of the VSP on the dashboard of a car or near a heater. The system should not be subjected to severe impact or bending force. Exposure to these types of stresses can damage the system components. Do not use or store the VSP in a location where liquids such as water, juice, coffee can splash on it.  The VSP is intended to be used in conjunction with a monitoring service that reviews the transmissions and provides information to the physician for his/her final diagnostic interpretation.  The VSP is not intended for use as an emergency medical response system and should not be used by patients at risk for serious or life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias.

SUCH MODIFICATIONS COULD VOID THE USER'S AUTHORITY TO OPERATE THE EQUIPMENT.
minimum of 1.0 cm from the body.VSP Gateway User Guide 27 Warning - Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) information  SAR tests are conducted using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC with the phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands, although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the phone while operating can be well below the maximum value, in general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output. Before a new model phone is a available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the exposure limit established by the FCC, Tests for each phone are performed in positions and locations (e.g. at the ear and worn on the body)as required by the FCC. For body worn operation, this model phone has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines when used with an accessory designated for this product or when used with an accessory that contains no metal and that positions the handset a   This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Any Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.     Note: This equipment 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 equipment generates uses and can radiate radio frequency energy
VSP Gateway User Guide 28 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 equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment 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 equipment and receiver.   --Connect the equipment into 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. NOTE: THE MANUFACTURER IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY RADIO OR TV INTERFERENCE CAUSED BY UNAUTHORIZED MODIFICATIONS TO THIS EQUIPMENT. SUCH MODIFICATIONS COULD VOID THE USER'S AUTHORITY TO OPERATE THE EQUIPMENT. Gateway (Model number FGL-00005, FCC ID: SMTLWVGW) Warnings Using Your Gateway near Other Electronic Devices Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio frequency (RF) signals. However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals from your wireless phone. Consult the manufacturer to discuss alternatives. Implantable Medical Devices A minimum separation of six (6) inches (15 cm) should be maintained between a handheld wireless phone and an implantable medical device, such as a pacemaker, to avoid potential interference with the device.
VSP Gateway User Guide 29 Persons who have such devices: • Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six (6) inches (15 cm) from their implantable medical device when the phone is turned ON; • Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket; • Should use the ear opposite the implantable medical device to minimize the potential for interference; • Should turn the phone OFF immediately if there is any reason to suspect that interference is taking place. • Should read and follow the directions from the manufacturer of your implantable medical device. If you have any questions about using your wireless phone with such a device, consult your health care provider.
1.0 cm0.40 inch30VSP Gateway User Guide  Other Medical Devices If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information. Switch your phone off in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy. Children Using Wireless Phones The scientific evidence does not show a danger to users of wireless phones, including children and teenagers. If you want to take steps to lower exposure to radio frequency energy (RF), the measures described above would apply to children and teenagers using wireless phones. Reducing the time of wireless phone use and increasing the distance between the user and the RF source will reduce RF exposure. Some groups sponsored by other national governments have advised that children be discouraged from using wireless phones at all. For example, the government in the United Kingdom distributed leaflets containing such a recommendation in December 2000. They noted that no evidence exists that using a wireless phone causes VSP Transmitter tumors or other ill effects. Their recommendation to limit wireless phone use by children was strictly precautionary; it was not based on scientific evidence that any health hazard exists. Body-worn Operation To comply with RF exposure requirements, a minimum separation distance of   ( ) must be maintained between the user’s body and the handset, including the antenna. Third-party belt-clips, holsters, and similar accessories used by this device should not contain any metallic components. Body-worn accessories that do not meet these requirements may not comply with RF exposure requirements and should be avoided.
31VSP Gateway User Guide  Use only the supplied or an approved antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could impair call quality, damage the phone, or result in violation of regulations. Do not use a phone with a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into contact with the skin, a minor burn may result. Please contact your local dealer for replacement antenna.
