Electromagnetic Immunity
The Boston Scientic DBS System is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment specied below.
The customer or the user of the Boston Scientic DBS System should assure that it is used in such an
environment.

Field strengths from xed RF
transmitters, as determined by an
electromagnetic site survey
a
, should
be less than the compliance level in
each frequency range. Interference
may occur in the vicinity of equipment
marked with the symbol shown below:
Note: These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption
and reection from structures, objects and people.
a Field strengths from xed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones
and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted
theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to xed RF transmitters, an
electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured eld strength in the location in which
the Boston Scientic DBS System is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the Boston
Scientic DBS System should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed,
additional measures may be necessary, such as re‑orienting or relocating the Boston Scientic DBS System.
