Notes on the radio interface Switch off the appliance if you are in an aeroplane, hospital, operating theatre or in the vicinity of a electronic medical system. The transmitted radio waves can affect the functionality of sensitive devices. Keep the device at least 20 cm away from a pacemaker or implanted defibrillator, as the proper functioning of the pacemaker or the implanted defibrillator could be affected by radio waves. The transmitted radio waves can cause noise interference in hearing aids. Do not use the unit in the presence of flammable gases or in a potentially explosive atmosphere (e.g. in a paint shop) while the radio com- ponent is activated as the transmitted radio waves can cause an explosion or ignite a fire. The range of the radio waves is dependent on the environment and the ambient conditions. Data transmissions via a wireless connection can be intercepted by unauthorised third parties.SKBA 2 A1
