Travel and Airport Security
The NESS H200 Wireless System charger set with interchangeable blades is compatible
with Australian, U.K., European Union, and U.S. voltages: 110/220 V, 50/60 Hz.
Advise patients to turn off the NESS H200 Wireless System before going through airport
security. They should wear loose clothing so that they can easily show the security person
their NESS H200 Wireless System. The NESS H200 Wireless System will likely set off the
security alarm. Patients should be prepared to remove their NESS H200 Wireless System so
that security can scan it, or ask for the system to be scanned if they do not want to remove
it. Patients may want to carry a copy of their NESS H200 Wireless System prescription. A
prescription can be useful when passing through customs as well.
To request a copy of their prescription, patients should call the Bioness Client Relations
Department: Telephone: (800) 211-9136, Option 3; or (661) 362-4850, Option 3. A Bioness
representative can fax or mail them a copy.
Note: The NESS H200 Wireless System contains radio transmitters. The Federal Aviation
Administration rules require that all radio-transmitting devices be turned off during flight.
