Safety information
Radio frequency exposure limits
To avoid the possibility of exceeding the radio frequency exposure
limits, you, or anybody else who is around, must be at least 20 cm
away from the aerial linked to the Vodafone DSL Router.
Young children
Keep the Vodafone DSL Router and its components out of reach
of children and do not allow children to play with the router. They
may be injured, cause injuries to others or damage the Vodafone
DSL Router. The Vodafone DSL Router includes small pointed parts
which can cause injuries or become detached and cause chocking.
Interference
The Vodafone DSL Router includes a transmitter and a receiver.
When on, it receives and transmits radio frequency energy. You must
be careful when using the Vodafone DSL Router very near individual
medical devices, such as pacemakers and hearing aids. All wireless
products are sensitive to interference which may affect their
performance. The Vodafone DSL Router is designed for operation at
a distance of at least 20 cm from any individual. Failure to comply
with this instruction may lead to exposure to radio frequency energy
in excess of the limits set forth in relevant directives.
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers suggest that a pacemaker should
be at least 15 cm away from a wireless device to avoid possible
interference between the device and the pacemaker.
Hearing aids
Hearing aids or other cochlear implants users may experience
noise interference when using, or being close to, wireless devices.
The level of interference depends on the type of the aid and
the distance from the source of interference. You may reduce
interference by moving further away from the source. Consult your
hearing aid manufacturer for alternative solutions.
Medical devices
To find out whether the Vodafone DSL Router could affect the
operation of your medical device, consult with your doctor and the
device manufacturer.
Hospitals
To prevent possible interference with sensitive medical equipment,
deactivate your wireless device when requested to do so in
hospitals, clinics or health facilities.
Explosive environments
Where there is a possible explosive atmosphere, you must comply
with all posted instructions and must, upon request, deactivate
the Vodafone DSL Router or any other wireless device. Areas with
possible explosive environments are refueling stations, spaces
under boat decks, fuel or chemical transportation or storage
facilities, as well as areas where the air contains chemicals or
particles (such as grains, dust or suspended metallic particles).
Battery
The device is accompanied by a rechargeable battery pack.
• Do not expose the battery to excessive heat or flame.
• Do not immerse the battery in water.
• Do not subject the battery to strong blows or let it come in
contact with drops.
• Do not disassemble or modify the battery for any reason
whatsoever.
• Do not keep the battery discharged. Charge the battery at
temperatures ranging between 0°C and +45°C.
• Do not keep the battery with less than 50% of its original capacity
or at a temperature other than specified.
