User Manual Since this module is not sold to general end users directly, there is no user manual of module. For the details about this module, please refer to the specification sheet of module. This module should be installed in the host device according to the interface specification

(installation procedure). The following information must be indicated on the host device of this module;

[for FCC]

Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID: AK8 M16DFL1 or Contains FCC ID: AK8M16DFL1 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.

*If it is difficult to describe this statement on the host product due to the size, please describe in the User's manual.

[for IC]

Contains IC: 409B-M16DFL1 The following statements must be described on the user manual of the host device of this module;

[for FCC]

FCC CAUTION Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the users authority to operate the equipment. This transmitter must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines. This equipment should be installed and operated keeping the radiator at least 20cm or more away from persons body.

[for IC]

This device complies with Industry Canadas licence-exempt RSSs. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

(1) This device may not cause interference; and

(2) This device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device. Le prsent appareil est conforme aux CNR dIndustrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence. Lexploitation est autorise aux deux conditions suivantes :

1) lappareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage;

2) lutilisateur de lappareil doit accepter tout brouillage radiolectrique subi, mme si le brouillage est susceptible den compromettre le fonctionnement. 5150-5350 MHz band is restricted to indoor operation only. La bande 5150-5350 MHz est restreinte une utilisation lintrieur seulement. High-power radars are allocated as primary users (i.e. priority users) of the bands 5250-5350 MHz and 5650-5850 MHz and that these radars could cause interference and/or damage to LE-LAN devices. Les radars de haute puissance sont dsigns utilisateurs principaux (c.--d., qu'ils ont la priorit) pour les bandes 5250-5350 MHz et 5650-5850 MHz, et ces radars pourraient causer du brouillage et/ou des dommages aux dispositifs LAN-EL. This equipment complies with IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets RSS-102 of the IC radio frequency (RF) Exposure rules. This equipment should be installed and operated keeping the radiator at least 20cm or more away from persons body (). Cet quipement est conforme aux limites dexposition aux rayonnements nonces pour un environnement non contrl et respecte les rgles dexposition aux frquences radiolectriques (RF) CNR-102 de lIC. Cet quipement doit tre install et utilis en gardant une distance de 20 cm ou plus entre le radiateur et le corps humain. The following statement is for host manufacturer, therefore isnt described on the user manual of the host device. This radio transmitter (IC: 409B-M16DFL1) has been approved by Industry Canada to operate with the antenna types listed below with the maximum permissible gain indicated. Antenna types not included in this list, having a gain greater than the maximum gain indicated for that type, are strictly prohibited for use with this device. Antenna type: PIFA, Gain: 6.4dBi (2.4GHz)/ 5.0dBi (5GHz) Antenna type: PIFA, Gain: 5.6dBi (2.4GHz)/ 5.0dBi (5GHz) Antenna type: PIFA, Gain: 5.6dBi (2.4GHz) Le prsent metteur radio(IC: 409B-M16DFL1) a t approuv par Industrie Canada pour fonctionner avec les types d'antenne numrs cidessous et ayant un gain admissible maximal. Les types d'antenne non inclus dans cette liste, et dont le gain est suprieur au gain maximal indiqu, sont strictement interdits pour l'exploitation de l'metteur. Type dantenne: PIFA, Gain: 6.4dBi (2.4GHz)/ 5.0dBi (5GHz) Type dantenne: PIFA, Gain: 5.6dBi (2.4GHz)/ 5.0dBi (5GHz) Type dantenne: PIFA, Gain: 5.6dBi (2.4GHz)
