Safety Notices
This radar equipment must be installed and operated in accordance with the
instructions contained in this manual. Failure to do so can result in personal injury
and/or navigational inaccuracies. In particular:
1. High Voltage. The scanner unit contains high voltages. Adjustments require
specialized service procedures and tools only available to qualified service
technicians – there are no user serviceable parts or adjustments. The operator
should never remove the scanner unit internal covers or attempt to service the
equipment.
2. Electromagnetic Energy. The radar scanner transmits electromagnetic
energy. It is important that the radar is turned off whenever personnel are
required to come close to the scanner to perform work on the scanner assembly or
associated equipment.
It is recommended that the radar scanner is mounted out of range of personnel
(above head height).
Do not look directly at the antenna at close range as your eyes are the most
sensitive part of the body to electromagnetic energy.
When properly installed and operated, the use of this radar will conform to the
requirements of ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1992 Standard for Safety Levels with Respect to
Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields, 3 Hz to 300 GHz and
