• When the USB-Modem is switched on, it should be kept at least 15 cm from any medical device such as a
pacemaker, a hearing aid or insulin pump, etc.
• Do not let children use the USB-Modem without supervision.
• When replacing the cover, please note that the USB-Modem may contain substances that could create an
allergic reaction.
• Always handle the USB-Modem with care and keep it in a clean and dust-free place.
• Do not allow the USB-Modem to be exposed to adverse weather or environmental conditions (moisture,
humidity, rain, infiltration of liquids, dust, sea air, etc). The manufacturer’s recommended operating
temperature range is -25°C to +55°C.
• Do not open, dismantle or attempt to repair the USB-Modem yourself.
• Do not drop, throw or bend the USB-Modem.
• Do not paint it.
WEEE Approval
The USB-Modem is in compliance with the essential requirements and other relevant provisions of the Waste Electrical and
Electronic Equipment Directive 2002/96/EC (WEEE Directive).
RoHs Approval
The USB-Modem is in compliance with the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic
equipment Directive 2002/95/EC (RoHs Directive).
Radio Waves
Proof of compliance with international standards (ICNIRP) or with European Directive 1999/5/EC (R&TTE) is required of all modem
models before they can be put on the market. The protection of the health and safety for the user and any other person is an
essential requirement of these standards or this directive.
THIS DEVICE MEETS INTERNATIONAL GUIDELINES FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
The USB-Modem is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves (radio
frequency electromagnetic fields) recommended by international guidelines. The guidelines were developed by an independent
scientific organization (ICNIRP) and include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless
of age and health.
The radio wave exposure guidelines use a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit for
mobile devices is 2 W/kg.
Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions with the device transmitting at its highest certified power level
in all tested frequency bands. The highest SAR values under the ICNIRP guidelines for this device model are:
During use, the actual SAR values for this device are usually well below the values stated above. This is because, for purposes
of system efficiency and to minimize interference on the network, the operating power of your mobile device is automatically
decreased when full power is not needed for the call. The lower the power output of the device, the lower its SAR value.
Body-worn SAR testing has been carried out at a separation distance of 5mm. To meet RF exposure guidelines during
body-worn operation, the device should be positioned at least this distance away from the body. If you are not using an
approved accessory ensure that whatever product is used is free of any metal and that it positions the phone the indicated
distance away from the body.
