1 Warnings and Precautions
To use HUAWEI ETS2256 Fixed Wireless Terminal (FWT) accurately,
efficiently and securely, you should notice following cautions.
Basic Cautions
1. Check fittings based on the packing list to make sure they are complete and
undamaged.
2. Read this manual carefully before installing and using FWT.
Electronic Device
Switch your FWT off near high-precision electronic devices. The FWT may
affect the performance of these devices.
Such devices include hearing aids, pacemakers, fire alarm systems, automatic
gates, and other automatic-control devices. If you are using an electronic medical
device, consult the device manufacturer and confirm whether the radio wave
affects the operation of this electronic device.
Hospital
Pay attention to the following points in hospitals or health care facilities:
z Do not take your FWT into the operating room (OR), intensive care unit (ICU),
or coronary care unit (CCU).
z Switch your FWT off near medial devices.
z Observe any instructions wherever the use of wireless device is prohibited.
1 Warnings and Precautions
HUAWEI
2
Traffic Safety
z Do not use your FWT while driving. Secure the FWT on its holder. Do not
place the FWT on the seat or other places where it can get loose in a sudden
stop or collision.
z Observe the rules and regulations of airline companies. Switch your FWT off
before boarding an aircraft.
Operating Environment
z Do not place magnetic storage media such as magnetic cards and floppy disks
near the FWT. Radiation from the FWT may erase the information stored on
them.
z Do not put your FWT, battery, or other accessories in containers with strong
magnetic field, such as the induction cooker and microwave oven. Otherwise,
circuit failure, fire, or explosion may result.
z Do not leave your FWT, battery, or power adapter in a high-temperature place
or use them in a place with flammable gas. Otherwise, malfunction of the
products, fire, or explosion may result.
z Because FWT needs to eliminate heat during working, put the FWT and the
power supply in a ventilated and shadowy place. Never airproof the FWT or
put something on it or place it near water, fire as well as inflammable and
explosive materials.
z Because FWT contains precision devices, you should put it in a dry place and
away from moist materials.
z Before cleaning FWT, please turn off the FWT, and then disconnect the power
supply and take out the battery. Before moving FWT, please disconnect the
external power supply.
z Do not subject your FWT, battery, and power adapter to serious collision or
shock. Otherwise, battery leakage, FWT malfunction, overheat, fire, or
explosion may result.
z Do not place sharp metal objects such as pins near the earpiece. The earpiece
may attract these objects and hurt you when you are using the FWT.
z Do not place the FWT in the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment
area. Otherwise, the FWT may hurt you owing to the strong force when the air
bag inflates.

call. Consequently, you should place FWT in a place where it can receive
network signal well. Do not put FWT in a building with an iron or metal roof.
The distance between FWT and other metal materials (such as metal brackets
or metal doors and windows) should be greater than 25cm and the distance
between FWTs should be greater than 30cm.
z Do not open the chassis in any case and the device should be maintained by a
qualified maintenance department.
z Without permission, you are not allowed to modify the architecture and
security design of FWT. You must bear any consequence resulted from the
operation without permission.
z Your FWT is designed to conform to the authoritative international radio
frequency (RF) specifications. Use FWT accessories approved by Huawei
only.
Emergency Call
You can use your FWT for emergency calls. However, connections in all
conditions cannot be guaranteed. You should never rely solely on the FWT for
essential communications.
Battery
z If the battery fluid gets into eyes, do not rub them. Wash with clean water and
seek medical assistance immediately.
z If the battery fluid contacts skin or cloth, wash with clean water immediately to
avoid irritation to the skin.

13 Troubleshooting
The display screen keeps OFF after the FWT is turned on (no external
power adapter is connected with the FWT).
1. Open the battery case to check whether the battery is installed.
2. If the battery has been installed, it means that the voltage of the battery
becomes weak. In this case, you need to power on the FWT with a power
adapter.
The display screen keeps OFF after the FWT is turned on (an external
power adapter is connected with the FWT).
1. It is likely that the voltage output by the power adapter can not meet the
requirement of the FWT. In this case, you need to check whether the AC
input is normal, and whether the power adapter is the one accompanying the
FWT.
2. It is also likely that the external voltage of the power adapter is lower or
unstable, thus causing the case that the FWT can not operate normally. In this
case, you need to check whether the external voltage of the power adapter is
normal, or power on the FWT with a battery.
There is no signal indicator on the screen of the FWT.
1. Check whether the antenna has been installed properly.
2. If there is still no signal indicator, please contact the carrier to check whether
the signal covers the area of the FWT.
There is no time indicator on the screen of the FWT.
1. Check whether the antenna has been installed properly.
2. Adjust the antenna of the FWT or move the FWT to the location where the
signal can be received easily.
3. If there is still no time indicator, please contact the carrier to check whether
the signal covers the area of the FWT.

The screen sometimes displays no information and sometimes
displays a power supply indicator and a glittering battery indicator
after the FWT is turned off.
