RF EXPOSURE COMPLIANCE
The use of this device in any other type of host configuration may not comply with the
RF exposure requirements and should be avoided. During operation, a 20 cm
separation distance should be maintained between the antenna, whether extended or
retracted, and the user’s/bystander’s body (excluding hands, wrists, feet, and ankles) to
ensure RF exposure compliance.
Caution
Change or modification without the express consent of Maxon Electronics Australia Pty.
Ltd. voids the user’s authority to use the equipment. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in an appropriate installation. The
modem is a transmitting device with similar output power to a mobile phone. This
equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not used in
accordance with instructions, can cause harmful radiation to radio communication.
Use only the supplied or an approved antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications,
or attachments could impair call quality, damage the device, or result in violation of RF
exposure regulations.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If the equipment does cause harmful interference in radio and television
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment on and off, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
!Re-orient or relocate the receiving radio or TV antenna
!Increase the separation distance between the equipment and the receiver
!Contact Maxon Australia Technical Support for assistance.
Notes
The user is cautioned that changes or modifications not expressly approved by Maxon
Australia could void the warrantee.
Potentially Unsafe Areas
Posted Facilities: Turn off this device in any facility or area when posted notices

7
require you to do so.
Blasting Areas: Turn off your device where blasting is in progress. Observe
restrictions and follow any regulations or rules.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres: Turn off your device when you are in any
area with a potentially explosive atmosphere. Obey all signs and instructions.
Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire, resulting in bodily injury or
death.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often but not always clearly
marked. They include:
!fuelling areas such as gas or petrol stations
!below deck on boats
!transfer or storage facilities for fuel or chemicals
!vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas, such as propane or butane
!areas when the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust or
metal powders
!avoid using the modem in areas that emit electromagnetic waves or
enclosed metallic structures e.g. lifts
any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your engine
