Products with HP Broadband Wireless Modules
THIS DEVICE MEETS INTERNATIONAL GUIDELINES FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO FREQUENCY
RADIATION.
The HP Broadband Wireless Module in your notebook is a radio transmitter and receiver. The device is
designed not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) recommended by international
guidelines (ICNIRP). These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines that establish permitted levels
6 Chapter 1 Regulatory notices
of RF radiation for the general population. The guidelines were developed by independent scientific
organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The device also meets the
European R&TTE directives, including the protection of the health and the safety of the user and any
other person.
The exposure standard for mobile devices employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific
Absorption Rate (SAR).* The SAR was obtained by testing the device at standard operating positions
with the device transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. The SAR
information for your computer, including the recommended minimum distance from the body, is available
on the HP Web site at http://www.hp.com/broadbandwireless. The actual SAR of the device while
operating can be well below the maximum value, because the device operates at multiple power levels
and uses only the power required to reach the network.
When installed in the notebook computer, this device meets RF exposure guidelines when the antennae
are positioned at a minimum distance from the body. In order to transmit data or messages, this device
requires a quality connection to the network. In some cases, transmission of data or messages may be
delayed until such a connection becomes available. Be sure that the recommended distance is observed
until the transmission is complete.
*The non-FCC, international guidelines state that the SAR limit for mobile devices used by the public is
2.0 watts/kilogram (W/kg) averaged over 10 grams of body tissue. The guidelines incorporate a
substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations
in measurements. SAR values may vary depending on national reporting requirements and the network
band.

ENERGY STAR compliance
HP computers marked with the ENERGY STAR® logo are compliant with the applicable U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) ENERGY STAR specifications for computers. The EPA
ENERGY STAR logo does not imply endorsement by the EPA. As an ENERGY STAR Partner, Hewlett-
Packard Company has determined that the products marked with the ENERGY STAR logo are ENERGY
STAR qualified as per the applicable ENERGY STAR guidelines for energy efficiency. The following
logo will appear on all ENERGY STAR qualified computers:
The ENERGY STAR program for computers was created by the EPA to promote energy efficiency and
reduce air pollution through more energy-efficient equipment in homes, offices, and factories. One way
that products achieve this goal is by using the Microsoft® Windows® power management feature to
reduce power consumption when the product is not in use.
The power management feature allows the computer to initiate a low-power or “Sleep” mode after a
period of user inactivity. When used with an external ENERGY STAR qualified monitor, this feature also
supports similar power management features of the monitor. To take advantage of these potential
energy savings, the power management feature has been preset to behave in the following ways when
the system is operating on AC power:
●Turn off the display after 15 minutes
●Initiate Sleep after 30 minutes
The computer exits Sleep when the power/Sleep button is pressed. When the Wake On LAN (WOL)
feature is enabled, the computer can also exit Sleep in response to a network signal.
Additional information on the potential energy and financial savings of the power management feature
can be found on the EPA ENERGY STAR Power Management Web site at http://www.energystar.gov/
