applications. "Fixed" means that the device is physically secured at one location and is not able to be
easily moved to another location. "Mobile" means that the device is designed to be used in other than
fixed locations. These products are not designed to be used as “Portable” devices in applications
where they would be closer than 20 cm (8 inches) to the user or any other personnel.
In the case of the SMART-MR15, it is important to follow any special regulations regarding the use of
radio equipment due in particular to the possibility of radio frequency (RF) interference. Please follow
the safety advice given below carefully.
The following notices apply, as appropriate, to the SMART-MR10 and SMART-MR15.
Safety
Changes or modifications to this equipment not expressly approved by NovAtel Inc.
could result in violation of FCC, Industry Canada and CE Marking rules and void the
user’s authorization to operate this equipment.
Personnel must be at least 20 cm (8 inches) from the SMART-MR15 cellular antenna.
The SMART-MR15 cellular antenna must be mounted such that personnel are never
closer than 20 cm (8 inches) to it. For antenna installations on non-metallic vehicle cab
roofs, users should exercise extra care that the 20 cm separation distance between the
antenna and personnel inside the vehicle will be maintained on the basis of an
imaginary line passing through the roof between the antenna and the body of the
operator or any passengers.
Switch OFF your SMART-MR10/15 when around gasoline or diesel-fuel pumps and
before filling your vehicle with fuel. Respect restrictions on the use of radio equipment
in fuel depots, chemical plants or where blasting operations are in progress.
There may be a hazard associated with the operation of your SMART-MR10/15 close
to inadequately protected personal medical devices such as hearing aids and
pacemakers. Consult the manufacturers of the medical device to determine if it is
adequately protected.
Operation of your SMART-MR10/15 close to other electronic equipment may also
cause interference if the equipment is inadequately protected. Observe any warning
signs and manufacturers’ recommendations.
