The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are associated with using low power wireless devices. There is no proof, however, that these low power wireless devices are absolutely safe. Low power Wireless devices emit low levels of radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while being used. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue), exposure of low-level RF that does not produce heating effects causes no known adverse health effects. Many studies of low level RF exposures have not found any biological effects. Some studies have suggested that some biological effects might occur, but such findings have not been confirmed by additional research. The model has been tested and found to comply with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines.

Precautions On BLUETOOTH communications Bluetooth wireless technology operates within a range of about 10 m (30 feet)1). Maximum communication range may vary depending on obstacles (human body, metal, wall, etc.) or electromagnetic environment. 1) Approx. 1 km (0.62 miles) for Group Talk. The antennas are built into the main unit and the remote control as illustrated in the dotted line. The sensitivity of the Bluetooth communications will improve by turning the direction of the built-in antenna of the main unit to the connected Bluetooth device. When obstacles are between the antenna of the connected device and the built-in antennas of the main unit and the remote control, noise or audio dropout may occur, or communications may be disabled. NYSNO-10 supports security capabilities that comply with the Bluetooth standard to provide a secure connection when the Bluetooth wireless technology is used, but security may not be enough depending on the setting. Be careful when communicating using Bluetooth wireless technology. We do not take any responsibility for the leakage of information during Bluetooth communications. Connection with all Bluetooth devices cannot be guaranteed. A device featuring Bluetooth function is required to conform to the Bluetooth standard specified by Bluetooth SIG, Inc. and be authenticated. Even if the connected device conforms to the above mentioned Bluetooth standard, some devices may not be connected or work correctly, depending on the features or specifications of the device. While talking on the phone hands free, noise may occur, depending on the device or communication environment.
