Bluetooth product operating in 2.4GHz band for Home and Office use.
11.1. Exposure to Radio Frequency Radiation
The radiated output power of the BT RS232 DCE CLASS 2 and BT RS232 DTE CLASS 2 Bluetooth wireless radios
are far below the FCC, Industry Canada and European Union radio frequency exposure limits. Nevertheless, the
wireless radio shall be used in such a manner that the potential for human contact during normal operation is
minimized. The internal wireless radio operates within guidelines found in radio frequency safety standards and
recommendations which reflect the consensus of the scientific community.
The level of emitted energy emitted is far less than the electromagnetic energy emitted by wireless devices such as
mobile phones. However, the use of wireless radios may be restricted in some situations or environments, such as
aboard airplanes. If you are unsure of restrictions, you are encouraged to ask for authorization before turning on the
wireless radio.
The FCC, Industry Canada and European Union have set a general guideline of 20 cm (8 inches) separation
between the device and the body. This device should be used more than 20 cm (8 inches) from the body when
wireless devices are on.
