1 Safety Information
Note: Read this information before using your Ericsson Mobile
Broadband Router (MBR) W30/W35 for safe and efficient use.
1.1 Product Care and Safety
Your Ericsson W30/W35 is a highly sophisticated electronic device. To get
the most out of it, be sure to read the following text about product care,
safety and efficient use.
Treat your product with care, keep it in a clean and dust free place.
Do not expose your Ericsson W30/W35 to liquid, moisture or humidity.
Do not expose your Ericsson W30/W35 to extreme high or low
temperatures; refer to the topic Environmental Conditions documented on
page 7 for more detailed information.
Do not expose your Ericsson W30/W35 to open flames or lit tobacco
products.
Do not drop, throw or try to bend the product since rough treatment could
damage it.
Do not use this product near water, for example, near a bathtub,
washbowl, kitchen sink or laundry tub, in a wet basement or near a
swimming pool.
Avoid using a telephone (other than cordless type) during an electrical
storm. There may be a remote risk of electric shock from lightning.
Do not use this product near medical equipment.
Do not use this product in an aircraft because this product can transmit
signals that could interfere with various onboard systems and may be
dangerous to the operation of the aircraft or disrupt the cellular network.
The optional battery within the W35 should be removed.
Do not use this product near life support equipment, or any equipment
which may be susceptible to any form of radio interference. In such areas
this product must be powered off. This product can transmit signal that
could interfere with such equipment.
3/1551-CRH 102 168 Uen Rev PA2 2008-11-04 1
Safety Information
Do not attempt to disassemble you Ericsson W30/W35. A broken warranty
seal will void the warranty. The product does not contain consumer
serviceable components. Only Certified Service Centers should perform
service.
Do not use any accessories other than those approved by Ericsson or
approved for use by your service provider. Use of non-original, or non-
approved accessories, may result in loss of performance, damage to the
product, fire, electric shock or injury and may violate regulations. The
warranty does not cover product failures that have been caused by use of
non-original or non-approved accessories.
Only Telephone equipment approved in the country where the W35 is used
is to be connected.
1.2 Antenna Care
Use only an antenna that has been specially designed and approved for
your Ericsson W30/W35. Use of unauthorized antennas, modifications, or
attachments could damage the router and may violate the appropriate
regulations, causing loss of performance and radio frequency (RF) energy
above the recommended limits.
Do not hold or touch the antenna when the Ericsson W30/W35 is in use.
Holding or touching the antenna affects call quality.
Do not use the Ericsson W30/W35 if the antenna or antenna cable is
damaged or missing.
Do not place the telephone cord or the power supply cord on, or near, the
Ericsson W30/W35 antenna or antenna cable.
Do not cover or place an obstruction on, or around, the antenna.
1.3 Radio Wave Exposure Information
The Ericsson W30/W35 is a low-power radio transmitter and receiver.
During use, 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-lonizing Radiation Protection) and IEEE
(The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.) through periodic
and thorough evaluation of scientific studies.
2 3/1551-CRH 102 168 Uen Rev PA2 2008-11-04
Safety Information
These guidelines establish permitted levels of radio wave exposure for the
general population. 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. The SAR level for this
product was determined at the highest certified level in laboratory
conditions using a measurement standard published by the European
Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization (CENELEC).
With the antenna solutions recommended by Ericsson, the maximum radio
wave exposure is below the limit in the international safety guidelines within
a few centimeters from the antenna. Consequently, for recommended
placement of the terminal and antenna, the radio wave exposure levels are
below the limits.
More information on radio frequency exposure can be found on:
http://www.ericsson.com/health
1.4 Personal Medical Devices
Radio waves may affect the operation of cardiac pacemakers and other
implanted equipment. If a minimum distance of 15 cm is kept between the
antenna and the pacemaker, the risk of interference is limited. If you have
any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, immediately move
away from the antenna. Contact your cardiologist for more information.
For other medical devices, please consult the manufacturer of the device.
1.5 Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Do not use your Ericsson W30/W35 in an area where a potentially
explosive atmosphere exists.
1.6 Intended Use
This product is designed and approved for private and public use in an
indoor location.
The Ericsson W30/W35 is designed for use within the home or office. Any
attached cabling must remain internal to the building.
3/1551-CRH 102 168 Uen Rev PA2 2008-11-04 3
Safety Information
1.7 Power Supply
Ensure that your AC power outlet is adequately grounded, is situated near
the Ericsson W30/W35 and easily accessible.
Connect the power supply cord only to the AC power outlet that meets the
specifications marked on the Ericsson W30/W35 supply.
Never alter the AC power cord or plug. If necessary have the correct outlet
installed by a qualified electrician or call your service provider for
assistance.
To reduce risk of damage to the electric cord, remove it from the outlet by
holding onto the AC adapter rather than the cord.
Make sure the cord is positioned so that it will not be stepped on, tripped
over or otherwise subjected to damage or stress.
1.8 Installation Practices
In locations prone to lightning, installation practices providing protection
should be followed.
1.9 Battery (W35 only)
Caution
Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type.
Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions.
1.10 Mains Power Fails
This equipment will remain inoperable when mains power fails unless the
optional battery (W35 only) has been installed and is charged.
1.11 Children
Do not allow children to play with your Ericsson W30/W35 since it contains
small parts that could become detached and create a choking hazard.
4 3/1551-CRH 102 168 Uen Rev PA2 2008-11-04
Safety Information
1.12 Moving or Storing
Turn off the Ericsson W30/W35 by disconnecting the power supply as well
as the battery (if one is installed).
If you are transporting the Ericsson W30/W35 on an aircraft, you will be
asked to remove the battery from the unit.
For updated information about the transportation and use of wireless
communication equipment, contact the appropriate local and national
regulatory agency or your service provider.
