ANTENNA CARE

Use only the supplied integral antenna. Unauthorized antenna modifications or
attachments could damage the handheld and may violate applicable laws and
regulations by causing radio frequency (RF) energy to be above the recommended
limits. Any such unauthorized use, modification or attachment will invalidate the
warranty provided with the handheld and may be dangerous.

AIRCRAFT SAFETY

handheld’s radio in an aircraft is unknown. Such use may affect aircraft
instrumentation, communication and performance, may disrupt the network,
may otherwise be dangerous to the operation of the aircraft, and may be illegal.
All other applications of your handheld may be used in accordance with airline
regulations for electronic devices.
