Please always keep them more than 20 centimeters away from such medical devices when they are turned on. Turn the modem off if necessary. Consult a physician or the manufacturer of the medical device before using the modem. Be aware of the usage limitation when using a modem at places such as oil warehouses or chemical factories, where there are explosive gases or explosive products being processed. Turn off your modem if required. The use of electronic transmitting devices is forbidden in aircrafts, at petrol stations and in hospitals. Please observe and obey all warning signs and switch off your modem in these conditions. Do not touch the inner antenna area if not necessary. Otherwise it will affect your modems performance. Store the modem out of the reach of little children. The modem may cause injury if used as a toy. Do not touch the metallic parts of the modem so as to avoid a burn, when the modem is working. Using your USB Modem Please use original accessories or accessories that are authorized. Using any unauthorized accessories may affect your modems performance, and violate related national regulations about telecom terminals. Avoid using the modem near or inside metallic structures or establishments that can emit electromagnetic waves. Otherwise it may influence signal reception. The modem is not waterproof. Please keep it dry and store in a shady and cool place. Do not use the modem immediately after a sudden temperature change. In such case, it will produce dew inside and outside the modem, so dont use it until it becomes dry. Handle the modem carefully. Do not drop, bend or strike it. Otherwise the modem will be damaged. No dismantling by non-professionals and only qualified technicians can undertake repair work. Operating temperature range of -10 ~ +55 and humidity range of 5% ~ 95% are recommended. FCC Compliance 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. Caution: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the users authority to operate the equipment. NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. Confidential and Proprietary Information of ZTE CORPORATION 3 Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. Radio Frequency (RF) Energy This device meets the governments requirements for exposure to radio waves. This device is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government. The exposure standard for wireless device employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg. *Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC with the device transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the device while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the device is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the poser required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output. SAR compliance has been established in the host product(s) (laptop computers), tested at 5mm separation distance to the human body, and tested with USB slot configurations including Horizontal-UP, Horizontal-Down, Vertical-Front, Vertical-Back. This device can be used in host product(s) with substantially similar physical dimensions, construction, and electrical and RF characteristics. The highest SAR value, tested per FCC RF exposure guidelines for USB dongle, as described in this user guide, is 1.17 W/kg. The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this device with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this device is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid after searching on FCC ID: Q78-MF820B.
