from infants and small children.
• SoundGate should not be used in an aircraft
unless specically permitted by the ight
personnel.
• SoundGate should not be operated in explosive
environments such as mines.
• For safety reasons the neck strap should never
be tied together or used for children weighing

• Interference can also be caused by power lines
disturbances, airport metal detectors, electro-
magnetic elds from medical devices, radio
signals and electrostatic discharges.
• Although unlikely, the digital inductive signals
tranmitted by the SoundGate could potentially
interfere with medical devices such as pace-

recipients not to carry and use the SoundGate
in a breast pocket or around the neck. In this
case we recommend its use as a remote control
operated from a trouser pocket or purse.
