a The ISM (industrial, scientific and medical) bands between 150 kHz and 80 MHz are 6,765 MHz to  
6,795 MHz;13,553 MHz to 13,567 MHz; 26,957 MHz to 27,283 MHz; and 40,66 MHz to 40,70 MHz.  
b The compliance levels in the ISM frequency bands between 150 kHz and 80 MHz and in the  
frequency range 80 MHz to 2,5 GHz are intended to decrease the likelihood that mobile/portable  
communications equipment could cause interference if it is inadvertently brought into patient areas. For  
this reason, an additional factor of 10/3 is used in calculating the recommended separation distance for  
transmitters in these frequency ranges.  
c 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 device is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the device  
should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional  
measures may be necessary, such as reorienting or relocating the device.  
d Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 3 V/m.  
Recommended separation distances between portable and mobile RF  
communications equipment and this device  
This device is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF  
disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of this device can help prevent

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 applicable 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.  
Note 1: At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the separation distance for 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.
