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.

• 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. Changes or modications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance

couldvoid theuser’s authority to operate the equipment.The antenna(s) used for this transmitter must not be colocated or operating in conjunction with any otherantenna or transmitter.

Please read before proceeding

• Use only the batteries and power adapter provided by the manufacturer. The use of

unauthorized accessories may void your warranty.

• Do not store your device in temperatures higher than 50°C (122°F).

• The operating temperature for this device is from 0°C (32°F) to 40°C (104°F).

CE SAR Information

This device MEETS GUIDELINES FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES. Your mobile

device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves recommended by international guidelines. These guidelines were developed by the independent scientic organization ICNIR and include safety margins

designed to assure the protection of all persons, regardless of age and health.

The exposure guidelines for mobile devices employ a unit of measurement known as the SpecicAbsorption Rate or SAR. The SAR limit stated in the ICNIRP guidelines is 2.0 W/ kg averaged over 10 grams of tissue. Test for body worn SAR, the positions of the device

are at a minimum of 1.5 cm from the body with the device transmitting at its highest

certied powerlevel in all tested frequency bands. The actual SAR level of an operating device can be below the maximum value because the device is designed to use only the power required to reach the network. That amount changes depending on a number of factors such as how close you are to a network base station. The highest SAR value under the ICNIRP guidelines for use of the device at the body is 0.0246 W/kg. Use of

device accessories and enhancements may result in different SAR values. SAR values

may vary depending on national reporting and testing requirements and the network band.

Following information is only for EU-member states:

The mark is in compliance with the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment

Directive 2002/96/EC (WEEE).

The mark indicates the requirement NOT to dispose the equipment including any

spent or discarded batteries or accumulators as unsorted municipal waste, but use the return and collection systems available. If the batteries, accumulators and button cells included with this equipment, display the chemical symbol Hg, Cd, or Pb, then it means that the battery has a heavy metal content of more than 0.0005% Mercury or more than, 0.002% Cadmium, or more than 0.004% Lead.

European Union Regulatory Conformance

The equipment complies with the RF Exposure Requirement 1999/519/EC, Council Recommendation of 12 July 1999 on the limitation of exposure of the general public to electromagnetic elds (0-300 GHz).This equipment meets the
