While charging, noise enters the AM
radio
Turn off the wireless charger and confirm
that the noise has decreased. If the noise
decreases, continuously pushing the power
supply switch of the wireless charger for 2
seconds, the frequency of the charger can
be changed and the noise can be reduced.
Also, on that occasion, the operation indi-
cator light will flash orange 2 times. ■
Important points of the wireless charger●
If the electronic key cannot be detected
within the vehicle interior, charging can-
not be done. When the door is opened
and closed, charging may be temporarily
suspended.●
When charging, the wireless charging
device and portable device will get
warmer, however this is not a malfunction.
When a portable device gets warm while
charging, charging may stop due to the protection function on the portable
device side. In this case, when the tem-
perature of the port able device drops
significantly, charge again. ■
Operation sounds
When the power supply is turned on, while
searching for the portable device a sound
will be produced, however this is not a mal-
function. ■
Certification for the wireless charger
FCC Note: This equipment has been tested
and found to comply with Part 18 of the
FCC Rules. These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference in a residential installa-
tion.
FCC Caution: Any changes or modifica-
tions not expressly approved by the party

Important! Read this information about
exposure to radio frequency signals
before using Safety Connect;
The Safety Connect system installed in
your vehicle is a low-power radio trans-
mitter and receiver. It receives and also
sends out radio frequency (RF) signals.
In August 1996, the Federal Commu-
nications Commission (FCC) adopted
RF exposure guidelines with safety lev-
els for mobile wireless phones. Those
guidelines are consistent with the
safety standards previously set by the
following U.S. and international stan-
dards bodies.
 ANSI (American National Stan-
dards Institute) C95.1 [1992]
 NCRP (National Council on Radia-
tion Protection and Measurement)
Report 86 [1986]
 ICNIRP (International Commission
on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protec-
tion) [1996]
Those standards were based on com-
prehensive and periodic evaluations of
the relevant scientific literature. Over
120 scientists, engi neers, and physi-
cians from universi ties, and govern-
ment health agencies and industries
reviewed the available body of
research to develop the ANSI Stan- dard (C95.1).
The design of Safety Connect com-
plies with the FCC guidelines in addi-
tion to those standards.

cle, particularly around the wheels or
wheel housings.
• If the tire inflation pressure is extremely
higher than the specified level.
• If wheel without the tire pressure warning
valve and transmitter is used.
• If the ID code on the tire pressure warn-
ing valves and transmitters is not regis-
tered in the tire pressure warning
computer.●
Performance may be affected in the fol-
lowing situations.
• Near a TV tower, electric power plant,
gas station, radio stat ion, large display,
airport or other faci lity that generates
strong radio waves or electrical noise
• When carrying a portable radio, cellular
phone, cordless phone or other wireless
communication device
●
When the vehicle is parked, the time
taken for the warning to start or go off
could be extended.
