12 FAQ on HUAWEI 3G Data
Card
How to Judge Whether the HUAWEI 3G Data Card has been
Installed Correctly?
After installing the HUAWEI 3G Data Card, two devices are displayed in the
device management, namely, the “HUAWEI Mobile Connect-3G Modem”
and the “HUAWEI Mobile Conncet-3G Application Interface”.
Check whether these two devices are installed correctly at first. If a yellow
exclamatory mark or other signs appear in front of the devices, it means that
the HUAWEI 3G Data Card has not been installed correctly, and you must
retry.
After the Data Card Management Software is installed, the Data
Card Management Always Prompts “Data Card not Exit”. Why?
You have probably inserted the Data Card before the completion of installing
the Data Card Management. Pull out the Data Card and insert it after the
installation of the Data Card Management is completed. Then, install the
HUAWEI 3G Data Card hardware driver by following the guide for
hardware installation.
What Shall I Do if I cannot Access the Internet?
1. Check whether you have activated the wireless online service at first.
You can ask the local network carrier on how to activate it.
2. If you affirm that the wireless online service has been activated, refer to
the section of “Internet Service” to implement relevant settings.

Certification Information (SAR)
THIS DEVICE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT'S REQUIREMENTS FOR
EXPOSURE TO RADIO FREQUENCY ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELD.
Your wireless data card is a low-power radio transmitter and receiver. When
it is running, 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-Ionizing Radiation Protection) and IEEE
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.), through periodic and
thorough evaluation of scientific studies. These guidelines establish
permitted levels of radio wave exposure for the public. 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 when using a wireless data
card. The SAR value is determined at the highest certified power level in
laboratory conditions, but the actual SAR level of the wireless data card
while operating can be well below the value. This is because the wireless
data card is designed to use the minimum power required to reach the
network.
All models of Huawei’s wireless data card are designed to meet radio
frequency exposure guidelines such as European Council Recommendation
and Federal Communications Commission Notice (United States).
13
Warnings and Precautions
HUAWEI

European Council Recommendation: Before a wireless data card model is
available for sale to the public, it must be tested according to the technical
standard-EN 50361 and does 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 1.56 W/kg.
Federal Communications Commission Notice (United States): Before a
wireless data card 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 1.53 W/kg.
