3FOR YOUR SAFETY
3.1 General
PowerTrunk has approved a wide range of accessories for the HTT-500 terminal: antennas,
batteries, chargers, cases, audio accessories, etc. These accessories have passed all types of
tests that ensure their suitability and safety for the use for which they are intended. So, it is
recommended only to use approved accesories.
For your safety, only allow PowerTrunk qualified staff to repair the terminal or its accessories.
If the installation or repair is not correct, it may be dangerous and may void the guarantee of
the terminal.
The equipment has been designed to fulfil the applicable compliance regulations.
The equipment complies with Part 15 of the FCC Title 47 of the Code of Federal Regulations.
Operation is subject to the condition that this device does not cause harmful interference.
The equipment complies with the applicable Part 90 of the FCC Title 47 of the Code of Federal
Regulations.
3.2 Exposure to radiofrequency energy
Your HTT-500 terminal and the accessories approved by PowerTrunk are designed and
manufactured not to exceed the limits of exposure to radiofrequency energy, in compliance
with the international regulations for this purpose.
These regulations, which are result of periodical scientific trials by independent organisations,
include a considerable safety margin, designed to guarantee the safety of all staff, regardless
of their age or state of health.

3.3 Electromagnetic compatibility
The majority of electronic devices are susceptible to electromagnetic interference if they are
not adequately shielded, designed or configured for electromagnetic compatibility.
To avoid these compatibility conflicts, respect the current regulations of the area you are in,
and turn off the terminal whenever its use is prohibited, when it may cause interference or be
hazardous, for example, at hospitals or health care premises, where equipment sensitive to
external RF radiation may be being used.
Aircraft
Follow all existing restrictions, according to the regulations of the airlines or the instructions of
the crew.
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend keeping a minimum safety distance of 15 cm between
a portable radio terminal and a pacemaker, to avoid possible interferences with the latter.
People with pacemakers should:
•When switched on, always keep the terminal more than 15 cm away from the
pacemaker.
•Not carry the terminal in your breast pocket.
•Use the terminal with the ear on the opposite side to the pacemaker to minimise
possible interference.
•Turn off the terminal immediately if, for any reason, you suspect it is causing
interference.

Hearing aids or other medical devices
Some digital mobile devices may interfere with these appliances. If this interference occurs,
contact your service supplier or the manufacturer of the hearing aid or medical device.
Using two terminals nearby may cause interference between them, for example when two of
these devices are in the same vehicle. If this happens, separate the terminals until the
interference disappears.
3.4 Other operational warnings
Vehicles
The RF signals may affect the electronic systems of motor vehicles that are not well installed
or protected, for example, electronic injection systems, electronic anti-locking brake systems
(ABS), speed control systems or airbag systems. For further information, verify these aspects
of your vehicle, or equipment that has been added, with the corresponding manufacturers.
Do not place the terminal in the area above the airbag or in the area where it would inflate.
Airbags inflate with great force and the terminal may be thrown, causing serious injury to the
occupants of the vehicle.
Potentially explosive environments
Disconnect the terminal when it is in an area where explosions may occur and obey all signs
and instructions.
The areas where explosions may occur are usually, but not always, marked. These areas
include fuel loading areas, such as ship decks, petrol stations, premises for storage and
transport of motor fuel or chemical products, vehicles that use liquid gas petroleum and areas
where the air contains chemical particles or elements, as grain, powder or metallic particles.

Sparks in these areas may cause explosions or fire, with the subsequent risk of injury or even
death.
Driver safety
Check the laws and regulations about the use of mobile telephones and radiotelephones in the
area where you are driving and always respect them. While driving, pay full attention, and
always keep your hands free for operating the vehicle.
As measure of caution, whenever possible, park off the road before making or answering a
call.
Acoustic shock
The terminal has a low power front speaker, only used for duplex calls, and a high power rear
speaker for half-duplex calls. Only keep the terminal near to your ear (as if it were a mobile
phone) when you make or receive duplex calls, otherwise it may damage your ear.
Outdoor use
PowerTrunk guarantees that the equipment features an IP54 degree of protection when it is
completely sealed and has all the protective gaskets on the different connectors, as it is first
supplied by PowerTrunk. To comply with this degree of protection it is also necessary that the
battery pack is inserted in the equipment.
Use under severe conditions
Under aggressive environments (heavy rain, excess of humidity, chemical substances, dusty
environments,…) or if any of the terminal gaskets is taken off or lost, additional protections are
needed. In this case it is recommended to protect the terminal with covers.
