Bluetooth wireless technology is a form or radio frequency (RF) technology that operates in the unlicensed industrial, scientific and medical band at 2.4 to 2.485 GHz. The RF channel utilized for communication between the meter and other devices, such as a smartphone, is not an open channel. The meter can only communicate with the device that1. is Bluetooth smart,2. it is paired with, and3. has an application that can accept the meter’s data.This device complies with United States Federal Communication Commission (FCC) standards. The device complies with FCC Part 15 Rules. Operation of the device is subject to the following conditions:1. This device may not cause harmful interference and 2. must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.Compliance with these guidelines means that under normal, daily circumstances, the device should not aect the operation of other devices. In addition, the device should operate normally in the presence of other devices.In the event there is interference from another device, it is recommended that you increase the distance between the meter and that device. You can also turn o the interfering device. In addition, you can turn o Bluetooth wireless technology on the meter. Changes or modifications to the device not expressly approved by Roche could void the user’s authority to operate the device. The device has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device. The device generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy.52926_07414587001_EN.indb 114 6/2/16 2:53 PM
115Technical Information 10Electromagnetic Compatibility – This meter meets the electromagnetic immunity requirements as per ENISO15197.

The meter’s electromagnetic emission is thus low. Interference from the meter to other electrically‑driven equipment is not anticipated. This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation 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.This equipment complies with FCC and IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment is in direct contact with the body of the user under normal operating conditions. This transmitter must not be co‑located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.NOTEThis equipment 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 communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment o 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 dierent from that to which the receiver is connected.• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance (i.e. the manufacturer) could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.52926_07414587001_EN.indb 115 6/2/16 2:53 PM
