3. As with all industrially manufactured goods, the use of substances that induce
an allergic reaction (allergens) such as nickel cannot be generally excluded. If
you develop an allergic reaction (such as a skin rash, frequent sneezing, red
eyes or respiratory difficulties) when using a Rohde & Schwarz product,
consult a physician immediately to determine the cause and to prevent health
problems or stress.
4. Before you start processing the product mechanically and/or thermally, or
before you take it apart, be sure to read and pay special attention to the
section titled "Waste disposal/Environmental protection", item 1.
5. Depending on the function, certain products such as RF radio equipment can
produce an elevated level of electromagnetic radiation. Considering that
unborn babies require increased protection, pregnant women must be
protected by appropriate measures. Persons with pacemakers may also be
exposed to risks from electromagnetic radiation. The employer/operator must
evaluate workplaces where there is a special risk of exposure to radiation and,
if necessary, take measures to avert the potential danger.
6. Should a fire occur, the product may release hazardous substances (gases,
fluids, etc.) that can cause health problems. Therefore, suitable measures
must be taken, e.g. protective masks and protective clothing must be worn.
7. Laser products are given warning labels that are standardized according to
their laser class. Lasers can cause biological harm due to the properties of
their radiation and due to their extremely concentrated electromagnetic power.
If a laser product (e.g. a CD/DVD drive) is integrated into a Rohde & Schwarz
product, absolutely no other settings or functions may be used as described in
the product documentation. The objective is to prevent personal injury (e.g.
due to laser beams).
8. EMC classes (in line with EN 55011/CISPR 11, and analogously with EN
55022/CISPR 22, EN 55032/CISPR 32)
Class A equipment:
Equipment suitable for use in all environments except residential
environments and environments that are directly connected to a low-
voltage supply network that supplies residential buildings
Note: Class A equipment is intended for use in an industrial environment.
This equipment may cause radio disturbances in residential environments,
due to possible conducted as well as radiated disturbances. In this case,
the operator may be required to take appropriate measures to eliminate
these disturbances.
