America and Africa. This is the most used telecommunication standard.
Your GSM terminal is actually a low power radio transmitter and receiver. It sends out and
receives radio frequency energy. When you use your GSM application, the cellular system
which handles your calls controls both the radio frequency and the power level of your
cellular modem.
12.1.2. Exposure to RF Energy
There has been some public concern about possible health effects from using GSM
terminals. Although research on health effects from RF energy has focused on the
current RF technology for many years, scientists have begun research regarding newer
radio technologies, such as GSM. After existing research had been reviewed, and after
compliance to all applicable safety standards had been tested, it has been concluded
that the product was fit for use.
If you are concerned about exposure to RF energy there are things you can do to
minimize exposure. Obviously, limiting the duration of your calls will reduce your
exposure to RF energy. In addition, you can reduce RF exposure by operating your
cellular terminal efficiently by following the guidelines below.
12.1.3. Efficient Terminal Operation
For your GSM terminal to operate at the lowest power level, consistent with satisfactory
call quality: If your terminal has an extendible antenna, extend it fully. Some models
allow you to place a call with
the antenna retracted. However, your GSM terminal operates more efficiently with the
antenna fully extended.
Do not hold the antenna when the terminal is « IN USE ». Holding the antenna affects call
quality and may cause the modem to operate at a higher power level than needed.
12.1.4. Antenna Care and Replacement
Product Technical Specification & User Guidelines
High Confidential
60 / 63
Do not use the GSM terminal with a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes
into contact with the skin, a minor burn may result. Replace a damaged antenna
immediately. Consult your manual to see if you may change the antenna yourself. If so,
use only a manufacturer-approved antenna. Otherwise, have your antenna repaired by a
qualified technician.
Use only the supplied or approved antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications or
attachments could damage the terminal and may contravene local RF emission
regulations or invalidate type approval.
12.2. General Safety
12.2.1. Driving
Check the laws and the regulations regarding the use of cellular devices in the area
where you have to drive as you always have to comply with them. When using your
GSM terminal while driving, please:
give full attention to driving,
pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions
so require.
12.2.2. Electronic Devices
Most electronic equipment, for example in hospitals and motor vehicles, is shielded from
RF energy. However, RF energy may affect some improperly shielded electronic
equipment.
12.2.3. Vehicle Electronic Equipment
Check your vehicle manufacturer representative to determine if any on-board electronic
equipment is adequately shielded from RF energy.
12.2.4. Medical Electronic Equipment
Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices (such as pacemakers,
Product Technical Specification & User Guidelines
High Confidential
61 / 63
hearing aids, etc...) to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF
energy.
Turn your terminal OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted in the area
instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using RF monitoring
equipment.
12.2.5. Aircraft
Turn your terminal OFF before boarding any aircraft.
Use it on the ground only with crew permission.
Do not use it in the air.
To prevent possible interference with aircraft systems, Federal Aviation Administration
(FAA) regulations require you to have permission from a crew member to use your
terminal while the aircraft is on the ground. To prevent interference with cellular systems,
local RF regulations prohibit using your modem while airborne.
12.2.6. Children
Do not allow children to play with your GSM terminal. It is not a toy. Children could hurt
themselves or others (by poking themselves or others in the eye with the antenna, for
example). Children could damage the modem, or make calls that increase your modem
bills.
12.2.7. Blasting Areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your unit OFF when in a « blasting
area » or in areas posted: « turn off two-way radio ». Construction crews often use
remote control RF devices to set off explosives.
12.2.8. Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Turn your terminal OFF when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere. It is
Product Technical Specification & User Guidelines
High Confidential

rare, but your application or its accessories could generate sparks. Sparks in such
areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injuries or even death.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked.
They include fuelling areas such as petrol stations; below decks on boats; fuel or
chemical transfer or storage facilities; and areas where the air contains chemicals or
particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders.
Do not transport or store flammable gas, liquid, or explosives in the compartment of
your vehicle which contains your terminal or accessories.
Before using your terminal in a vehicle powered by liquefied petroleum gas (such as
propane or butane) ensure that the vehicle complies with the relevant fire and safety
regulations of the country in which the vehicle is to be used.
