Electronic device
Do not use your device if using the device is prohibited. Do not use the
device if doing so causes danger or interference with other electronic
devices.
Interference with medical equipment

Follow rules and regulations set forth by hospitals and health care
facilities. Do not use your device where prohibited.

Some wireless devices may affect the performance of hearing
aids or pacemakers. Consult your service provider for more
information.

Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum distance
of 15 cm be maintained between a device and a pacemaker to
prevent potential interference with the pacemaker. If using a
pacemaker, hold the device on the side opposite the pacemaker
and do not carry the device in your front pocket.
Protecting your hearing when using a headset

To prevent possible hearing damage, do not
listen at high volume levels for long periods.

Using a headset at high volumes may damage your hearing. To
reduce this risk, lower the headset volume to a safe and
comfortable level.
Safety information

EU regulatory conformance
Body worn operation
The device complies with RF specifications when used at a distance of 1.5
cm from your body. Ensure that the device accessories, such as a device

12
case and device holster, are not composed of metal components. Keep
the device away from your body to meet the distance requirement.
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 International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation
Protection (ICNIRP), an independent scientific organization, and include
safety measures designed to ensure the safety of 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 during operation 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 Europe is 2.0 W/kg averaged over 10 grams of
tissue, and the highest SAR value for this device complies with this limit.
The highest SAR value reported for this device type when tested in
portable exposure conditions is 0.051 W/kg.
Statement
Hereby, Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. declares that this device is in
compliance with the essential requirements and other relevant provisions
of Directive 1999/5/EC.
For the declaration of conformity, visit the web site
