SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1
Data transmission and reception cannot be guaranteed
because of the nature of wireless communications. Data
can be delayed, corrupted or lost during transmission.
Even though it is quite rare that significant data delay
or loss occurs if the USB device is used in a normal
manner, this USB device should not be used in cases
that data transmission or reception failure could result
in damage of any kind to the user or another party,
including but not limited to personal injury, death or loss
of personal property. UTStarcom bears no responsibility
for damages or losses of any kind resulting from delays
or errors in data transmission using the USB device, or
for failure of the USB device to transmit or receive such
data.
2
Do not use this USB device in areas where blasting is in
progress, where explosive atmospheres may be present,
near medical equipment, life support equipment, or
any equipment which may be susceptible to any form
of radio interference. Turn off this USB device in these
areas, since it can transmit signals that could interfere
with this equipment.
3
Do not use this USB device in any aircraft whether the
aircraft is on the ground or in flight. Make sure to turn
off this USB device in aircraft.
If used in an aircraft, it can transmit signals that could
interfere with various aircraft systems.

SPECIFIC ABSORPTION RATES (SAR)
Maximum: SAR 0.789 W/kg CDMA835 Body
SAR 0.904 W/kg PCS1900 Body
THIS MODEL PHONE MEETS THE GOVERNMENT’S
REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO RADIO WAVES.
Your wireless phone 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 mobile phones employs a unit of measurement
known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR
limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg. *
Tests for SAR are conducted with the phone 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 phone
while operating can be well below the maximum value.
This is because the phone 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 phone model is available for sale to the public, it must be
tested and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the
APPENDIX
SPECIFIC ABSORPTION
RATES (SAR)
26
limit established by the government adopted requirement
for safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions
and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) as
required by the FCC for each model. The highest SAR value
for this model phone when tested for use at the when
worn on the body , as described in this user guide, is 0.904
W/Kg. (Body-worn measurements differ among phone
models, depending upon available accessories and FCC
requirements). While there may be differences between the
SAR levels of various phones and at various positions, they
all meet the government requirement for safe exposure.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this
model phone with all reported SAR levels evaluated as
in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR
information on this model phone 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: PP4PX-700.
Additional information on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR)
can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications Industry
Asso-ciation (CTIA) web-site at http://www.wow-com.com.
* In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile
phones used by the public is 1.6 watts/kg (W/kg) averaged
over one gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a
sub-stantial margin of safety to give additional protection
for the public and to account for any variations in
measurements.

SAFETY INFORMATION FOR RF EXPOSURE
BODY WORN OPERATION
This device was tested in multiple notebook computer
configurations with USB port configurations for typical
near-body operations with the back of the USB Modem
kept 20mm from the body. To maintain compliance
with FCC RF exposure requirements it can be used
in notebook computers with substantially similar
physical dimensions,construction, and electrical and
RF characteristics,and that maintain a minimum 20mm
separation distance between the user’s body and the back
of the USB Modem, including the antenna. The antenna(s)
used for this USB Modem must not be co-located or must
not operate in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter within a host device.
SAFETY INFORMATION
SAFETY INFORMATION FOR FIXED WIRELESS TERMINALS
POTENTIALLY EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES
Turn your phone OFF when in any area with a potentially
explosive atmosphere and obey all signs and instructions.
Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire
resulting in bodily injury or even death.
INTERFERENCE TO MEDICAL DIVICES
Certain electronic equipment may be shielded against RF
signal from you wireless phone. (pacemakers, Hearing Aids,
and so on) Turn your phone OFF in health c are facilities
when any regulations posted in these areas instruct you
to do so. RF signals may affect improperly installed or
inadequately shielded electronic system in motor vehicles.

EXPOSURE TO RF ENERGY
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna.
Do not touch the antenna unnecessarily when the phone is
in use. Do not move the antenna close to, or couching any
exposed part of the body when making a call.
FCC COMPLIANCE INFORMATION
This device complies with Part 15 of FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the 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.
