Appendix A: Safety, Regulatory, and Legal Information
The power output of the wireless device or devices that may be embedded in your
notebook is well below the RF exposure limits as known at this time. Because the wireless
devices (which may be embedded into your notebook) emit less energy than is allowed in
radio frequency safety standards and recommendations, Gateway believes these devices are
safe for use. Regardless of the power levels, care should be taken to minimize human
contact during normal operation.
Measurements have been performed to show that the RF exposure is below what is
considered safe limits; however care should be taken to make sure the user or bystanders
keep the transmitter away from their body when the wireless device is transmitting. The
transmitting antenna installed in the top third of the lid should be used in a manner to
maintain 20 cm (8 inches) from user’s or bystander’s bodies.
The wireless devices installed in this system are intended to be used indoors. In some areas,
use of these devices outdoors is prohibited.
Some circumstances require restrictions on wireless devices. Examples of common
restrictions are listed below:
Warning
Radio frequency wireless communication can interfere with
equipment on commercial aircraft. Current aviation
regulations require wireless devices to be turned off while
traveling in an airplane. 802.11b (also known as wireless
Ethernet or Wifi) and Bluetooth communication devices are
examples of devices that provide wireless communication.
Warning
In environments where the risk of interference to other
devices or services is harmful or perceived as harmful, the
option to use a wireless device may be restricted or
eliminated. Airports, Hospitals, and Oxygen or flammable
gas laden atmospheres are limited examples where use
of wireless devices may be restricted or eliminated. When
in environments where you are uncertain of the sanction
to use wireless devices, ask the applicable authority for
authorization prior to use or turning on the wireless device.
Warning
If your notebook came equipped with an internal
embedded wireless device, do not operate the wireless
device unless all covers and shields are in place and the
notebook is fully assembled.
Caution
Wireless devices are not user serviceable. Do not modify
them in any way. Modification to a wireless device will void
the authorization to use it. Please contact Gateway for
service.
