GUIDANCE AND MANUFACTURER'S DECLARATION -
ELECTROMAGNETIC IMMUNITY
The ME Equipment is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment specified below.
The customer or the user of the ME Equipment should assure that it is used in such an environment.

Note 1: At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.
Note 2: These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and reflection from
structures, objects and people.
Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio,
AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment
due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the
ME Equipment is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the ME Equipment should be observed to verify normal operation.
If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as re-orienting or relocating the ME Equipment.
Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than [V1] V/m.

RECOMMENDED SEPARATION DISTANCES
The ME Equipment is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The customer
or the user of the ME Equipment can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and
mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters) and the ME Equipment as recommended below, according to the maximum output
power of the communication equipment.

For transmitters rated at a maximum output power not listed above, the recommended separation distance d in meters (m) can be estimated using the equation appli-
cable to the frequency of the transmitter, where P is the maximum output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter manufacturer.

Floors should be wood, concrete or ceramic tile. If floors are covered with synthetic
material, the relative humidity should be at least 30%.

Field strengths from fixed RF transmitters, as determined by an electromagnetic site
survey, should be less than the compliance level in each frequency range
