Personal Safety
The use of RF devices including the DATA CARD may result in
interference to some electronic devices (such as some electronic
systems in motor vehicles) with poor shielding performance.
Therefore, before using the DATA CARD, make sure to consult the
manufacturer of such electronic devices.
When using the DATA CARD beside certain medical devices, such
as hearing aids and heart pacemakers, keep the running DATA
CARD at least 20 cm away from such medical devices or turn off
the DATA CARD when necessary. For any other questions, consult
the manufacturer of such devices before the use.
Pay attention to the use restrictions and regulations in sites with
explosive manufacture processes (such as oil warehouse and
chemical factory) and those with special requirements (such as
hospital).
During the use of the DATA CARD, do not contact the antenna area
unless necessary, to save energy.
Pay attention to traffic safety. During the driving, obey the related
local laws or regulations.
Keep the DATA CARD out of reach of children, lest they play it as a
toy, which may result to personal injury.
The SAR limit of USA (FCC) is 1.6 W/kg averaged over one
gram of tissue. Device types ZXMBW TP25EI (FCC ID: Q78-
ZXMBW-TP25EI) has also been tested against this SAR limit.
The highest SAR value reported under this standard during
product certification for use when used next to the body in a
typical notebook computer with side-mounted PCMCIA port
to maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure requirements,
use accessories that maintain a 1.5cm separation distance
between the user's body and the back of the handset. The
use of belt clips, holsters and similar accessories should not
contain metallic components in its assembly. The use of
accessories that do not satisfy these requirements may not
comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, and should be
avoided.
Chapter 1 Safety Instructions
Confidential and Proprietary Information of ZTE CORPORATION 3
Data Card Safety
You can only use the original accessories or the ones approved by
the manufacturer. The use of any unapproved accessory may

terms or the related national regulations on communication
terminal products, and even result in personal injury.
Do not use this product immediately after drastic temperate
change. In this case, condensation may appear inside or outside
the device. Do not use it until the condensation is dried.
Use slightly damp antistatic cloth for cleaning the DATA CARD. Do
not use chemical substances such as detergent for cleaning the
surface of the DATA CARD.
All data cards may be interfered with and hence have their
performance affected.
Do not expose your DATA CARD to strong sunshine, to avoid
damaging it by excessive heating.
Try to prevent all kinds of liquid entering the DATA CARD to cause
damage.
Do not throw or knock the DATA CARD, because rough handling
may damage the circuit boards inside.
Do not connect the DATA CARD with any unmatched device.
Only professionals are allowed to open the DATA CARD; otherwise,
personal injury or device damage may occur.
Do not connect the DATA CARD with any unmatched product.
