2.10Children
Do not allow children to play with your STEPPII-55/56-LT device. It is not a toy. Children
could hurt themselves or others (by poking themselves or others in the eye with the
antenna, for example). Children could damage the modem or make calls that
increase your modem bills.
2.11Blasting areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your unit OFF when in a “blasting
area” or in areas posted: „turn off two-way radio“. Construction crew often use
remote control RF devices to set off explosives.
2.12Potentially explosive atmospheres
Turn your STEPPII-55/56-LT device
OFF
when in any area with a potentially explosive
atmosphere. It is rare, but your modem or its accessories could generate sparks.
Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even
death.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly
marked. They include fuelling areas such as petrol stations; below decks on boats;
fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities; and areas where the air contains
chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust or metal powders.
Do not transport or store flammable gas, liquid or explosives, in the compartment of
your vehicle, which contains your modem or accessories.
Before using your modem in a vehicle powered by liquefied petroleum gas (such as
propane or butane) ensure that the vehicle complies with the relevant fire and
safety regulations of the country in which the vehicle is to be used.
2.13Non-ionizing radiation
As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment users are advised that for
satisfactory operation and for the safety of personnel, it is recommended that no
part of the human body is allowed to come too close to the antenna during
operation of the equipment.
The radio equipment shall be connected to the antenna via a non-radiating 50 Ohm
coaxial cable.
The antenna shall be mounted in such a position that no part of the human body will
normally rest close to any part of the antenna. It is also recommended to use the
equipment not close to medical devices as for example hearing aids and
pacemakers.
