following two conditions: (1)This device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference
that may cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class
B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed
to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential
installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may
cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guar-
antee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment
does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be

Important Informations
Warning: Changes or modifications made to this device not expressly approved
by Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. may void the FCC authorization to operate
this device.
Certification Information (SAR)
This mobile device meets guidelines for exposure to radio waves.
Your device is a low-power radio transmitter and receiver. As recommended by
international guidelines, the mobile device is designed not to exceed the limits
for exposure to radio waves. These guidelines were developed by the indepen-
dent scientific organization International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation
Protection (ICNIRP) and include safety measures designed to ensure safety for
all users, regardless of age and health.
The Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) is the unit of measurement for the amount
of radio frequency energy absorbed by the body when using a device. The SAR
value is determined at the highest certified power level in laboratory conditions,
but the actual SAR level of the device when being operated can be well below
the value. This is because the device is designed to use the minimum power
required to reach the network.
The device complies with the RF specifications when the device is used near
your ear or at a distance of 1.5 cm from your body. Ensure that the device acces-
sories such as a device case and a device holster are not composed of metal
components. Keep your device 1.5 cm away from your body to meet the require-
ment earlier mentioned.
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 at the ear is 0.964 W/kg, and
when properly worn on the body is 0.795 W/kg.
