Agency/Regulatory Information
The wireless device is approved for use in many regions of the world. In these regions, the device meets all radio frequency exposure requirements. The following approvals and notices apply in specific regions as noted.
Radio Frequency Exposure
To ensure compliance at all times with the R&TTE Directive* 1999/5/EC, the wireless device can be held in the hand but still requires a minimum distance of 1.5 cm from the body when in operation. For body-worn use, it must be suitably mounted so that it is at lea st 1.5 cm awa y from the body. Mounting accessories (for example, belt clips) can not be made of metal. Do not put the wireless device in your pocket.
* The general public RF exposure limits referenced in the R&TTE Directive are consistent with the published Guidelines of the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1998. ICNIRP is a formally recognized non-governmental organization in Non-Ionising Radiation Protection for the World Health Organisation (WHO), the International Labour Organisation (ILO) and the European Union (EU). For more information, visit the ICNIRP website at www.icnirp.de.
Certification Information (SAR)
THIS DEVICE MEETS T HE GOVERNMENT'S REQUIREMENT S FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO FREQUENCY ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELD.
Your wir eless device is a low-power r adio tr ansmitter and receiver. When it is running, it emits low levels of r adio 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 (Internat ional C ommis sion o n Non- Io nizing R adiati on Pr otectio n) a nd IEE E (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engine ers Inc.), through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. These guidelines establish permitted levels of r adio wa ve exposur e for the public. The leve ls 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 you use a wireless device. The SAR value is determined at the highest certified power level in laboratory conditions, but the actual SAR level of the wir eless 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 Europe an Council Recommendatio n and Federal Communications Commission Notice (United States).
European Council Recommendation: Before a wireless device model is available for sale to the p ublic, it must be tested according to the technical standard-EN 50361 and not exceed the limit established by the European Council Recommendation: 1999/519/EC for safe exposure.
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 1.52 W/kg.
[EN 50361 scope states "This basic standard applies to any electromagnetic field (EM) transmitting devices intended to be used with the radiating part of the equipment in close proximity to the human ear including mobile phones, cordless phones, etc. The frequency r ange is 300 MHz to 3 GHz. Therefore, the above text does not address primary use of

the wireless device product.] 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 1.18 W/kg. [There is no reference to the specific reference standard or its applicability to the intended use of the product.]
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Oper ation 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.
Changes or modif ications n ot appro ved by the responsib le party 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 interfere nce will not occur in a particular ins tallation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to r adio 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. 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.
