Safety Notices
USA—FCC and FAA
The FCC with its action in ET Docket 96-8 has adopted a safety standard for human exposure to radio frequency (RF) electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC
certified equipment. The wireless adapter meets the Human Exposure limits found in OET Bulletin 65, supplement C, 2001, and ANSI/IEEE C95.1, 1992. Proper
operation of this radio according to the instructions found in this manual will result in exposure substantially below the FCC’s recommended limits.
The following safety precautions should be observed:
 Do not touch or move antenna while the unit is transmitting or receiving.
 Do not hold any component containing the radio such that the antenna is very close or touching any exposed parts of the body, especially the face or eyes,
while transmitting.
 Do not operate the radio or attempt to transmit data unless the antenna is connected; this behavior may cause damage to the radio.
 Use in specific environments:
o The use of wireless adapters in hazardous locations is limited by the constraints posed by the safety directors of such environments.
o The use of wireless adapters on airplanes is governed by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and as set forth by each airline.
o The use of wireless adapters in hospitals is restricted to the limits set forth by each hospital.
Safety Approval Considerations:
This device is for use only in complete equipment where the acceptability of the combination is determined by the appropriate safety agencies. When installed,
consideration must be given to the following:
It must be installed into a compliant host device meeting the requirement of UL/EN/IEC 60950-1 2nd edition including the general provisions of enclosure design
1.6.2 and specifically paragraph 1.2.6.2 (Fire Enclosure).
The device shall be supplied by a SELV source when installed in the end-use equipment.
A heating test shall be considered in the end-use product for meeting the requirement of UL/EN/IEC 60950-1 2nd edition.
Antenna Use
 To comply with FCC RF exposure limits, it is recommended that for the wireless adapter installed in a host computer , the low gain integrated antennas for
this device should be located at a minimum separation distance from the body of all persons as specified according to the FCC modular grant conditions.
