side of the pacemaker and do not carry the device inyour front
pocket.
Potentially Explosive Atmosphere
Power off your device in any area with a potentially explosive
atmosphere, and comply with all signs and instructions. Areas that
may have potentially explosive atmospheres include the areas
where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.
Triggering of sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or a fire,
resulting in bodily injuries or even deaths. Do not power on your
device at refueling points such as service stations. Comply with
restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots, storage, and
distribution areas, and chemical plants. In addition, adhere to
restrictions in areas where blasting operations are in progress.
Before using the device, watch out for areas that have potentially
explosive atmospheres that are often, but not always, clearly
marked. Such locations include areas below the deck on boats,
chemical transfer or storage facilities, and areas where the air
contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust, or metal
powders. Ask the manufacturers of vehicles using liquefied
petroleum gas (such as propane or butane) whether this device can
be safely used in their vicinity.
Traffic Security
Observe local laws and regulations while using the device. In
addition, if using the device while driving a vehicle, comply with the
following guidelines:
• Concentrate on driving. Your first responsibility is to drive safely.
• Do not talk on the device while driving. Use hands-free
accessories.

more information, consultthe vehicle manufacturer.

• In a motor vehicle, do not place the device over the air bag or in
the air bag deployment area. Otherwise, the device may hurt you
owing to the strong force when the air bag inflates.
• Do not use your device while flying in an aircraft. Power off your
device before boardingan aircraft. Using wireless devices in an
aircraft may causedanger to the operation of the aircraft and
disrupt the wirelesstelephone network. It may also be
considered illegal.

Emergency Call
You can use your device for emergency calls in the service area. The
connection, however, cannot be guaranteed in all conditions. You
should not rely solely on the device for essential communications.
Certification Information (SAR)
This device meets guidelines for exposure to radio waves.
Your device is a low-power radio transmitter and receiver. As
recommended by international guidelines, the device is designed not
to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves. These guidelines
were developed by the independent scientific organization
International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection
(ICNIRP) and include safety measuresdesigned 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 SAR limit adopted by 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 0.233 W/kg, when properly worn on body is 0.988 W/kg,
and when using Wi-Fi hotspot function is 0.988 W/Kg.
The SAR limit also adopted by Europe is2.0 W/kg averaged over 10
grams of tissue. The highest SAR value for this device type when
tested at the ear is 0.691 W/kg, and when properly worn on the body
is 0.871 W/kg.
FCC Statement
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
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If
this equipment does cause harmful interferenceto radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and
on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures:
--Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
--Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
--Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that
to which the receiver is connected.
--Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
This device complies with Part 15 of the 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.
Caution
Changes or modifications made to this device not expressly
approved by Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. may void the
FCC authorization to operate this device.
