Safety Information  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. 3/1551-CRH 102 168 Uen Rev PA2  2008-11-04 5
