For Good Reception
To assure good reception, note the following:
• Communicate with the cell-phone within the line-
of-sight distance of 10 m (30 ft). The communication
range becomes shorter depending on the
surrounding environment. The communication
range also becomes shorter when there is an
obstacle between this unit and the cell-phone. The
above maximum communication range (10 m) is not
always assured.
• A broadcast station or walkie-talkie located nearby
can interfere with communication due to a too
strong signal.
