11 FAQ

How to judge whether E220 is correctly connected to the PC?

After you connect E220 to the PC, two device icons are displayed in the device manager,
namely, “HUAWEI Mobile Connect-3G Modem” and “HUAWEI Mobile Connect-3G PC
UI Interface”.

If a yellow exclamatory mark or other signs are displayed in front of the icons, it indicates
that E220 is not correctly connected. You need to connect E220 again.

What to do if E220 fails to connect to the Internet?

1. Make sure that E220 is in the service area and the network signal is normal.

2. Make sure you have subscribed to the wireless access service. For details, consult your

service provider.

3. If you have subscribed to the wireless access service, refer to "Internet Service" to

configure the network settings.

Only part of the message is displayed after I use the “Paste” function
to edit it. Why?

A text message can contain up to 1,000 characters. If the size of the pasted part exceeds the
limit, the exceeding part is auto deleted.

When there is a new message, no alert window is displayed. Why?

Make sure that you have enabled the alert window function.

Select Settings > Options. Then select the Prompt tab and select the Display alerts when
a message is received check box in Message Alerts Settings.

After Tele2 Mobile Connect is launched, the system prompts “There
are some unread messages in USIM/SIM card. Do you want to import
them to the computer?” After I select “No”, what if I want to import
the message?

Select File > Import Message from USIM/SIM Card to import messages to Tele2 Mobile
Connect from the USIM/SIM card.

I cannot paste the phone number. Why?

Only “0123456789#*+” is valid. Make sure that all digits of the phone number are valid.

use the wireless device without guidance.

y Do not allow children to touch the small fittings. Otherwise, suffocation or gullet jam

can be caused if children swallow the small fittings.

Operating Environment

y The wireless device is not water-resistant. Keep it dry. Protect the wireless device from

water or vapor. Do not touch the wireless device with a wet hand. Otherwise,
short-circuit and malfunction of the product or electric shock can be caused.

y Do not use the wireless device in dusty, damp and dirty places or places with magnetic

field. Otherwise, malfunction of the circuit can be caused.

y When you carry or use the wireless device, keep it at least one inch (2.5 centimeters)

away from your body, to avoid negative impact on your health caused by radio frequency
leakage.

y On a thunder stormy day, do not use your wireless device outdoors.
y Do not touch the wireless device when it is running. This may affect call quality and

cause the wireless device to operate with more power.

36

y The wireless device may interfere nearby TV sets and radios.
y In accordance with the international standards for radio frequency and radiation, use

wireless device accessories approved by Huawei only.

Cleaning and Maintenance

y Before you clean or maintain the wireless device, disconnect your wireless device from

your PC and turn off the PC. Otherwise, electric shock or short-circuit may be caused.

y Do not use any chemical detergent, powder, or other chemical agent (such as alcohol and

benzene) to clean the wireless device. Otherwise, part damage or a fire can be caused.
You can clean the wireless device with a piece of soft antistatic cloth that is a little wet.

y Do not scratch the shell of the wireless device. Otherwise, the shed coating may cause

skin allergy. Once it happens, stop using the wireless device at once and go to see a
doctor.

Certification Information (SAR)

THIS DEVICE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT'S REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE
TO RADIO FREQUENCY ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELD.

Your wireless device is a low-power radio transmitter and receiver. When it is running, it
emits low levels of radio frequency energy (also known as radio waves or radio frequency
fields).

Governments around the world have adopted comprehensive international safety guidelines,
developed by scientific organizations, e.g. ICNIRP (International Commission on
Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection) and IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics
Engineers Inc.), through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. These
guidelines establish permitted levels of radio wave exposure for the public. The levels
include a safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and
health, and to account for any variations in measurements.

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is the unit of measurement for the amount of radio
frequency energy absorbed by the body when using a wireless device. The SAR value is
determined at the highest certified power level in laboratory conditions, but the actual SAR
level of the wireless device while operating can be well below the value. This is because the
wireless device is designed to use the minimum power required to reach the network.

All models of Huawei’s wireless device are designed to meet radio frequency exposure
guidelines such as European Council Recommendation and Federal Communications

37

Commission Notice (United States).

European Council Recommendation: Before a wireless device model is available for sale
to the public, it must be tested according to the technical standard-EN 50361 and does not
exceed the limit established by the European Council Recommendation: 1999/519/EC for
safe exposure. l.

The SAR limit adopted by the 1999/519/EC is 2.0 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over ten
gram of tissue. The highest SAR value for this device type when tested is 1.20 W/kg.

Federal Communications Commission Notice (United States): Before a wireless device
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 SAR limit adopted by the USA and Canada is 1.6 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged
over one gram of tissue. The highest SAR value reported to the FCC and IC for this device
type when tested for use is 0.59 W/kg.

FCC Statement

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:

y Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
y Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
y Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the

receiver is connected.

y Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules and with RSS-210 of Industry Canada.
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.

Warning:

Changes or modifications made to this equipment not expressly approved by
HUAWEI may void the FCC authorization to operate this equipment.
