36Appendix : Updating Your Gateway Connected DVD Player FirmwareRegulatory compliance statementsWireless GuidanceThe WGM-240 wireless PCMCIA card is intended to be use exclusively with the Gateway Connected DVD player.The WGM-240 802.11g wireless LAN (low power Radio Frequency, RF, transmitting device) operates in the 2400 - 2483.5 MHz band. The following section is a general overview of considerations while operating the wireless LAN.Limitations, cautions, and concerns are listed below and in the specific country sections (or country group sections). This wireless device is only qualified for use in the countries identified by the Radio Approval Marks on the device rating label. If the country you will be using the wireless device in is not listed, please contact that countries local Radio Approval agency for requirements prior to operation. Wireless devices are closely regulated and use may not be allowed.The power output of the WGM-240 wireless LAN device is well below the RF exposure limits as known at this time. Because this wireless device emits less energy than is allowed in radio frequency safety standards and recommendations, Gateway believes these devices are safe for use. Regardless of the power levels, care should be taken to minimize human contact during normal operation.Measurements have been performed to show that the RF exposure is below what is considered safe limits; however, care should be taken to make sure that the user or bystanders keep the transmitter away from their bodies when the wireless device is transmitting. Measurements indicated compliance with RF exposure limits at the antenna housing's surface.As stated previously, this card is only intended to be used in the Gateway Connected DVD Player where this separation distance can be maintained.This wireless device is intended to be used indoors. In some areas, use of this device outdoors is prohibited.Some circumstances require restrictions on using wireless devices. Examples of common restrictions are listed below:8509634.fm Page 36 Thursday, December 4, 2003 12:52 PM

37Warning Radio frequency wireless communication can interfere with equipment on commercial aircraft. Current aviation regulations require wireless devices to be turned off while traveling in an airplane. IEEE 802.11g (also known as wireless Ethernet or Wifi) communication devices are examples of devices that provide wireless communication. See the user’s guide for the device that this card will be installed into for instructions on turning off the wireless functionality.Warning In environments where the risk of interference to other devices or services is harmful or perceived as harmful, the option to use a wireless device may be restricted or eliminated. Airports, hospitals, and oxygen or flammable gas laden atmospheres are limited examples where use of wireless devices may be restricted or eliminated. When in environments where you are uncertain of the sanction to use wireless devices, ask the applicable authority for authorization prior to use or turning on the wireless device.Warning Every country has different restrictions on the use of wireless devices. When traveling between countries, check with the local Radio Approval authorities prior to any move or trip for any restrictions on the use of a wireless device in the destination country.Warning Do not operate the wireless device unless all covers and shields are in place and the device it is installed into is fully assembled.Warning Wireless devices are not user serviceable. Do not modify them in any way. Modification to a wireless device will void the authorization to use it. Contact Gateway for service.Warning Only use drivers approved for the country in which the device will be used. Install the Gateway device drivers included with your product, or contact Gateway Technical Support for additional information.8509634.fm Page 37 Thursday, December 4, 2003 12:52 PM

38Appendix : Updating Your Gateway Connected DVD Player FirmwareUnited States of AmericaFederal Communications Commission (FCC)Intentional emitter per FCC Part 15The power output of the WGM-240 wireless LAN device is well below the RF exposure limits as known at this time. Because this wireless device emits less energy than is allowed in radio frequency safety standards and recommendations, Gateway believes these devices are safe for use. Regardless of the power levels, care should be taken to minimize human contact during normal operation.Measurements have been performed to show that the RF exposure is below what is considered safe limits; however, care should be taken to make sure the user or bystanders keep the transmitter away from their bodies when the wireless device is transmitting. This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits for an uncontrolled environment, of a portable transmitting device, under 47 CFR 2.1093 paragraph (d)(2). Measurements indicated compliance with RF exposure limits at the antenna housing's surface.This wireless device is intended to be used indoors. In some areas, use of this device outdoors is prohibited.As stated previously, this card is only intended to be used in the Gateway Connected DVD Player where this separation distance can be maintained. The Gateway WGM-240 is limited to use on channels one through eleven by specified firmware controlled in U.S.A. as a requirement of the FCC grant.Operation of this device is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.Warning In order to comply with FCC requirements this transmitter must not be operated (or co-located) in conjunction with any other transmitter or antenna.Warning Wireless devices are not user serviceable. Do not modify them in any way. Modification to a wireless device will void the authorization to use it. Contact Gateway for service.8509634.fm Page 38 Thursday, December 4, 2003 12:52 PM

39Unintentional emitter per FCC Part 15This device has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio or television reception. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause interference to radio and television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:■Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna■Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver■Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected■Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.Compliance Accessories: These accessories are required to be used in order to ensure compliance with FCC rules: None.8509634.fm Page 39 Thursday, December 4, 2003 12:52 PM
