Electromagnetic environment
The medical device uses HF energy exclusively for its internal functions.
Therefore its HF emissions are very low, and they are unlikely to affect
neighbouring electronic appliances.
The medical device is intended for use in all establishments, including
residential buildings and establishments that are connected directly (without
transformer) at the same low voltage network as residential buildings.
