Australian Communications Authority Radiocommunications (Electromagnetic Radiation - Human Exposure) Standard 2003 ANATEL, Brasil Regulatory Authority, Resolution 303 (July 2, 2002) “Regulation of the limitation of exposure to electrical, magnetic, and electromagnetic fields in the radio frequency range between 9 kHz and 300 GHz.” "Attachment to Resolution 303 from July 2, 2002." The iM240 modem card has been tested for compliance with FCC / IC RF exposure limits in laptop computer configurations with side PCMCIA slots, and palmtop computers with rear PCMCIA slots, and can be used in laptop computers and palmtop computers with substantially similar physical dimensions, construction, and electrical and RF characteristics. Your wireless modem is designed and manufactured to operate with the antenna in the vertical position. To assure optimal radio product performance and make sure exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy is within the guidelines set forth in the above standards, be sure always to put the antenna in the vertical position when operating the wireless modem in any computer that is sitting on your body.

ALL MODELS WITH FCC ID AZ489FT5834 MEET THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES. Your wireless modem is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radiofrequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The standards include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health. The exposure standard for wireless modems employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg.1 Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions reviewed by the FCC with the modem transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the modem while operating can be 25 Safety and General Information well below the maximum value. This is because the modem is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output. Before a modem 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 tests are performed in positions and locations as required by the FCC for each model. The highest SAR value for this radio product when tested for use during packet data transmission is 1.19 W/kg. The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this modem with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this modem is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID AZ489FT5834. Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association (CTIA) web-site at http://www.wow-com.com. 1 In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for modems used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a substantial margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations in measurements. 2 The SAR information reported to the FCC includes the FCC-accepted Motorola testing protocol, assessment procedure, and measurement uncertainty range for this product. Electro Magnetic Interference/Compatibility Note: Nearly every electronic device is susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI) if inadequately shielded, designed or otherwise configured for electromagnetic compatibility. Facilities To avoid electromagnetic interference and/or compatibility conflicts, turn off your modem product in any facility where posted notices instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that is sensitive to external RF energy. Aircraft When instructed to do so, turn off your modem product when on board an aircraft. Any use of a modem product must be in accordance with applicable regulations per airline crew instructions. 26 Medical Devices Medical Devices Pacemakers The Advanced Medical Technology Association (AdvaMed) recommends that a minimum separation of 6 inches (15 cm) be maintained between a wireless modem product and a pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with those of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Persons with pacemakers should: • • ALWAYS keep the modem product more than 6 inches (15 cm) from their pacemaker when the modem product is turned ON. Turn the modem product OFF immediately if you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place. Hearing Aids Some digital wireless modem products may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may want to consult your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives. Other Medical Devices If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately shielded from RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information. Operational Warnings For Vehicles with an Air Bag Do not place a portable modem product in the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. Air bags inflate with great force. If a portable modem is placed in the air bag deployment area and the air bag inflates, the modem product may be propelled with great force and cause serious injury to occupants of the vehicle. Potentially Explosive Atmospheres Turn off your modem product prior to entering any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere, unless it is a modem product type especially qualified for use in such areas as “Intrinsically Safe” (for example, Factory Mutual, CSA, or UL approved). Sparks in a potentially explosive atmosphere can cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death. 27 Safety and General Information Note: The areas with potentially explosive atmospheres referred to above include fueling areas such as below decks on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust or metal powders, and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine. Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are often but not always posted. Blasting Caps and Areas To avoid possible interference with blasting operations, turn off your modem product when you are near electrical blasting caps, or in a blasting area. Obey all signs and instructions. Operational Cautions Cleaning and Drying Considerations This product is not water proof, and exposing the unit to liquids may result in permanent damage to the unit. If your modem product interior gets wet, then do not try to accelerate drying with the use of an oven or a dryer as this will damage the modem product and void the warranty. Instead, do the following: Immediately power off the modem product. Remove SIM card (if so equipped) from modem product. Shake excess liquid from modem product. Place the modem product in an area that is at room temperature and has good air flow. Let the modem product and SIM card dry for 72 hours before powering on the modem product.
