Safety information
Exposure to radio frequency radiation from cellular wireless
transmitters
Devices equipped with wireless cellular modem radios have been designed and
manufactured to meet safety requirements for limiting exposure to radio waves. When
used in accordance with the instructions set forth in this manual, the equipment has been
independently verified to not exceed the emission limits for safe exposure to radio
frequency (RF) energy as specified by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S.
Government in 47 CFR §2.1093. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and
establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines are
based on standards that were developed by independent scientific organization through
periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The standards include a substantial
safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.

information
Hearing Aids: Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the
event of such interference, you may want to consult your wireless service provider, or call
customer service to discuss alternatives.
Pacemakers and Other Medical Devices: The Health Industry Manufacturers Association
recommends a minimum separation of six inches be maintained between a handheld
wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker.
These recommendations are consistent with the independent research by and
recommendations of Wireless Technology Research. Persons with pacemakers should use
the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference. Persons with
pacemakers should exercise great caution if using a hands-free device such as a headset,
as these persons may be at greater risk of the device not maintaining the recommended
minimum six inches of separation from the pacemaker. If you have any reason to suspect
that interference is taking place, turn the device OFF immediately.
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to
determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be
able to assist you in obtaining this information.
Turn the device OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these areas
instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that could
be sensitive to external RF energy.
