- Do not operate the radio or attempt to transmit data unless the antenna is connected; this behavior may cause damage to the radio. Use in specific environments: - The use of wireless adapters in hazardous locations is limited by the constraints posed by the safety directors of such environments. - The use of wireless adapters on airplanes is governed by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). - The use of wireless adapters in hospitals is restricted to the limits set forth by each hospital. Antenna Use In order to comply with FCC RF exposure limits, low gain integrated antennas should be located at a minimum distance of 20 cm (8 inches) or more from the body of all persons or at a minimum distance as specified by the FCC module grant conditions. FCC grants can be viewed from the FCC Equipment Authorization website at https://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/ oetcf/eas/reports/GenericSearch.cfm by entering the FCC ID printed on the module label. Explosive Device Proximity Warning Warning: Do not operate a portable transmitter (including this wireless adapter) near unshielded blasting caps or in an explosive environment unless the transmitter has been modified to be qualified for such use Antenna Warnings - Warning: To comply with the FCC and ANSI C95.1 RF exposure limits, it is recommended that for the wireless adapter installed in a desktop or portable computer, the antenna for this wireless adapter to be installed so as to provide a separation distance of at least 20 cm (8 inches) from all persons or at the minimum distance as specified by the module grant conditions. FCC grants can be viewed from the FCC Equipment Authorization website at https://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/oetcf/eas/ reports/GenericSearch.cfm by entering the FCC ID printed on the module label. - Warning: The wireless adapter is not designed for use with high-gain directional antennas. Use On Aircraft Caution - Caution: Regulations of the FCC and FAA prohibit airborne operation of radiofrequency wireless devices (wireless adapters) because their signals could interfere with critical interfere with critical aircraft instruments. Local Restrictions on 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g and 802.11n Radio Usage - Caution: Due to the fact that the frequencies used by 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g and 802.11n wireless LAN devices may not yet be harmonized in all countries, 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g and 802.11n products are designed for use only in specific countries, and are not allowed to be operated in countries other than those of designated use. As a user of these products, you are responsible for ensuring that the products are used only in the countries for which they were intended and for verifying that they are configured with the correct selection of frequency and channel for the country of use. Any deviation from the permissible power and frequency settings for the country of use is an infringement of national law and may be punished as such. Wireless Interoperability The wireless adapter is designed to be interoperable with other wireless LAN products that are based on direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) radio technology and to comply with the following standards: - IEEE Std. 802.11b compliant Standard on Wireless LAN - IEEE Std. 802.11g compliant Standard on Wireless LAN 18 - Quick start guide
