Tobii C12 user manual R090119 4   ImportantSafetyinformationaboutC‐Seriesdevices     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 generate, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy 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.  Modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the user's authority to operate the equipment under FCC rules.  To ensure safe operation of your C-Series device, please note the following: Caution: C-Series devices contains Lithium Ion batteries. Do not expose batteries to fire or temperatures above 45°C (113°F). These conditions may cause battery to generate heat, ignite or explode. Caution: Do not disassemble or harm the battery. Follow local law when disposal of battery is needed. Caution: For safe operation of C-Series devices, use only charger, batteries and accessories approved by Tobii Technology. Caution: Do not open the metal casing of C-Series devices, as it is a hazard risk. The unit contains no serviceable parts.  Avoiding hearing damage  Permanent hearing loss may occur if ear buds or headphones are used at high volume. Set the volume to a safe level. You can adapt over time to a higher volume of sound that may sound normal but can be damaging to your hearing. If you experience ringing in your ears, please lower the volume or stop using the earphones. The louder the volume, the less time is required before your hearing could be affected. Hearing experts suggest that to protect your hearing: • Limit the amount of time you use ear buds or headphones at high volume. • Avoid turning up the volume to block out noisy surroundings. • Turn the volume down if you can’t hear people speaking near you. To establish a safe volume level: • Set your volume control at a low setting.

Tobii C12 user manual R090119 9   BatteriesandchargingA C-Series device has two fully interchangeable batteries. One battery can be replaced without switching off the unit, AS LONG AS the (existing) battery is sufficiently charged.  To check the status of a battery not currently in the C-Series device, press the Indicator button on the side of the battery. 5 LEDs (light-emitting diodes) will indicate the remaining charge, i.e. 2 lit LEDs indicate 40% charge.  The batteries should only be charged using the supplied adapter. Charging of fully discharged batteries takes up to 12 hours. The device can be used while charging.  InstallbatteriesWhen a C-Series device is delivered the batteries are not installed. Batteries are delivered half charged (2 or 3 of the 5 LEDs are lit when the indicator button on the side of the battery is pushed).   To install batteries:  Place the C-Series device face down, insert a battery in its position and push it down until it locks in place. Make sure that the locking function clicks in closed position.  You can use the C-Series device right away, but it is recommended that the batteries are charged for at least 2 hours by connecting the power delivered with the C-Series device.

Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) The device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Changes or modification not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment .FCC Radio Frequency Exposure statement, This product has been evaluated under FCC Bulletin OET 65C and found compliant to the requirement asset as set forth in CFR 47 section 2.1093 and 15.247(i) addressing RF Exposure from radio frequency device, The redialed output power of this product is far below the FCC radio frequency exposure limits.  WARNING:  Modifications not authorized by the manufacturer may void users authority operate this device.  SAR Information The SAR limit of USA (FCC) is 1.6W/Kg  and in  Europe (CE) is 2.0 W/Kg averaged over one (FCC)、ten (CE) gram of tissue. Device types Tobii C12 (FCC ID: W5MTOBIIC12) has also been tested against this SAR limit. The Highest SAR Values reported under these standard during product certification for use when properly put on the lap is 1.59 W/Kg(FCC). To maintain compliance with FCC      RF exposure requirements.  Specific Absorption Rate Data This laptop PC meets the government’s requirements for exposure to radio waves. Your laptop PC  is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured to exceed limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communication Commission (FCC) of the U.S Government and Commission(CE) of European Union. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The standards include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons regardless of age or health.
Tobii C12 user manual R090119 16   The exposure standard for laptop PC employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR, The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/Kg and (CE) is 2.0 W/Kg.  Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC and CE with the laptop PC 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 laptop PC while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the laptop PC is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station, the lower the power output.  Before a laptop PC model is available for sale to the public in the U.S and EU, it must be tested and certified to the FCC and CE that it does not exceed the limit establish for safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions and locations  reported to the FCC and CE.  While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various laptop PC s and at various positions, they all meet the governmental requirements for safe exposure.  Please note that improvements to this product model could cause differences in the SAR value for later products, in all cases, products are designed to be within the guidelines.  In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for laptop PC used by the public is 1.6 W/Kg averaged over one gram of tissue. In the EU, the SAR limit for laptop PC used by the public is 2.0 W/Kg averaged over one gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in measurements.
