Using Your Kindle Around Other Electronic Devices
Kindle generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency (RF) energy and, if not used in
accordance with its instructions, may cause interference to radio communications and
electronic equipment. External RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately
shielded electronic operating systems, entertainment systems, and personal medical devices.
While most modern electronic equipment is shielded from external RF signals, if in doubt,
check with the manufacturer. For personal medical devices (such as pacemakers and hearing
aids), consult with your physician or the manufacturer to determine if they are adequately
shielded from external RF signals.
Steps to Minimize Interference
If your Kindle does cause interference to radio or television reception (which you can
determine by turning your Kindle off and on), you can try to correct the interference by one
or more of the following measures: reorient or relocate the receiving antenna for the radio
or television; increase the separation between the radio or television and your Kindle;
connect equipment and receivers to different outlets; or consult the radio or television
manufacturer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Watch for Signs
There are some places where RF signals could constitute a hazard, such as health care
facilities, and construction sites. If you are not sure, look around for signs indicating that
two-way radios or cell phones should be turned off.
In addition, turn off and do not charge your device if you are in any area with a potentially
explosive atmosphere, as sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire. Such
areas are usually, but not always, clearly identified, and include areas where you would
normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.
FCC Compliance Statement
This device and its related accessories like the adaptor (the "Products") comply with part
15 of the FCC Rules. Operation of each Product is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) each Product may not cause harmful interference, and (2) each Product must accept
any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Note: The Products have been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device or external switching power supply, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in
a residential installation. The Products generate, use and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If a Product does cause harmful
