Appendix B Safety and Usage Tips
About Bluetooth and Health
Bluetooth wireless technology allows you to use short-range radio signals
to connect a variety of devices, such as mobile phones, Pocket PCs,
notebook computers, printers, LAN access points, and many other devices
at home or work. These radio signals replace the cables that have
traditionally connected these devices.
Bluetooth enabled products have small radio transmitters and receivers.
Output power is normally very low, only 1 mW (1/1000 of a watt). This
gives a working range of approximately 10 meters.
The maximum exposure levels from Bluetooth enabled products are far
below recommended safety guidelines. At most, typical Bluetooth enabled
devices (1mW) reach only one percent of the prescribed safety levels.
CompactFlash Card
Product Care
• Do not expose your product to liquid, moisture or extreme humidity.
• Do not expose your product to extreme high or low temperatures.
• Do not expose your product to lit candles, cigarettes, or cigars, or to
