Regulatory Requirements The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) requires application for certification of digital devices in accordance with CFR Title 47, Part 15 and Part 27. This includes Electromagnetic Energy Exposure (EME) testing. As the PCEx25100 is not a stand-alone modem but is a PC card, the PCEx25100 cannot be tested by itself for EME certification and was tested while inserted in a laptop computer. Modification of this device may void the user’s authority to operate this equipment.
Product Operation and EME Exposure Your Motorola product is designed to comply with the following national and international standards and guidelines regarding exposure of human beings to radio frequency electromagnetic energy (EME): • United States Federal Communications Commission,Code of Federal Regulations; 47 CFR part 2 sub-part J. • American National Standards Institute (ANSI) / Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). C95. 1-1992.
Before a PCEx25100 model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the limit established by the government-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions and locations as required by the FCC for each model. The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this PCEx25100 with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines.
Operational Cautions Cleaning and Drying Considerations This product is not water proof, and exposing the unit to liquids may result in permanent damage to the unit. If your PCEx25100 interior gets wet, do not try to accelerate drying with the use of an oven or a dryer as this will damage the PCEx25100 and void the warranty. Instead, do the following: 1. Immediately power off the PCEx25100. 2. Shake excess liquid from PCEx25100. 3.
