Interference to Medical and Personal Electronic Devices

Most electronic equipment is shielded from RF energy. Nevertheless, RF energy from the
WINNER transmitter may affect inadequately shielded electronic equipment. We
therefore advise to consult the manufacturer(s) of your medical and personal electronic
device(s), (for example a pacemaker or hearing aid) to determine if they are adequately
shielded from external RF energy.

Do not install a WINNER gateway unit in a health care facility, if regulations posted in
the area restrict the use of cellular phones. Hospitals and health care facilities may be
using equipment that is sensitive to external RF energy.

Antenna Considerations

Use only the supplied or approved antenna. An unauthorized antenna, modifications or
attachments could affect call quality.

STAGE

The electronic circuitry of some telephones may be insufficiently shielded to operate
properly with the WINNER gateway units. When making or receiving a phone call, if your

WINNER, or if any other party hears the hum or noise, move the telephone away from
the WINNER. If moving it farther away has no effect, try using a different telephone.

The WINNER is a two-way radio and as such, some occasional interference is
unavoidable. For best results, choose an electrical outlet away from obstructions. Do
n ot place the WINNER near items which may increase static, such as:
