TP00139A with wireless WAN module T99W175 (sub6)
FCC ID: PU5-TP00139AM
TP00139A with wireless WAN module T99W175 (Sub6+mmWave)
You can find the FCC certification information through one of the following methods:
On a physical label attached to the outside of your computer shipping carton
Through an electronic-label screen (E-label screen) preinstalled on your computer
To access the E-label screen, do one of the following:
- Restart the computer. When the logo screen is displayed, press F9. The E-label screen is displayed.
- Restart the computer. When the logo screen is displayed, press Enter or tap the prompt to enter the Startup Interrupt menu. Then press F9 or tap the Regulatory Information option. The E-label screen is displayed.

The wireless modules in your computer are preinstalled by Lenovo, and you are prohibited to replace with other wireless adapter nor remove it. If the device requires replacement due to some problem during warranty, it must be serviced by a Lenovo authorized servicer.

FCC RF exposure compliance
The radiated output power of your computer is below the FCC radio frequency exposure limits. Nevertheless, it should be used in such a manner that the potential for human contact is minimized during normal operation of your computer.

CAUTION:
The total radiated energy from the antennas connected to the installed wireless modules conforms to the FCC limit of the SAR (Specific Absorption Rate) requirement, regarding 47 CFR Part 2 Section 1093, when the computer was tested in either conventional notebook or tablet computer orientations.
To know the location of transmission antennas for the Wireless LAN/Bluetooth combo module and the wireless WAN module, see “Locate the UltraConnect™ wireless antennas” in the User Guide.

Emergency Calls
The wireless WAN module does not support voice calls, hence their use for essential communication is not possible, including emergency calls regarding the E911 rule.

Simultaneous use of RF transmitters

Your computer is approved for simultaneous use of the integrated wireless modules.
Make sure of the following conditions when you use any other external wireless option device:

When you use any other RF option device, you are requested to confirm that the device conforms to the RF Safety requirement and is approved to use for your computer.
You must follow the RF Safety instructions of wireless option devices that are included in the user manual of the RF option device.
If wireless options are prohibited to use in conjunction with another transmitters, you must turn off all other wireless features in your computer.

Radio Frequency interference requirements

When you use a wireless LAN module in the 802.11a/n/ac/ax transmission mode, note that high power radars are allocated as primary users of the 5250 to 5350 MHz and 5650 to 5850 MHz bands. These radar stations can cause interference with and/or damage this device.

Canada — Industry Canada (IC)

IC certification number
Your computer contains the following wireless devices and the IC certification number is as below.

IC: 4182A-TP00139A
TP00139A with Bluetooth function (model: LBEE5QG2CX (WCN6855))
IC: 4182A-TP00139AS
TP00139A with wireless WAN module T99W175 (Sub6)
You can find the IC certification information through one of the following methods:
On a physical label attached to the outside of your computer shipping carton
Through an electronic-label screen (E-label screen) preinstalled on your computer
To access the E-label screen, do one of the following:
- Restart the computer. When the logo screen is displayed, press F9. The E-label screen is displayed.
- Restart the computer. When the logo screen is displayed, press Enter or tap the prompt to enter the Startup Interrupt menu. Then press F9 or tap the Regulatory Information option. The E-label screen is displayed.
The preinstalled wireless LAN/Bluetooth combo module also has been tested and found to comply with the limits regarding IC RSS-247, Low-power Licence-exempt Radio communication Devices.
The wireless LAN/Bluetooth combo module and the wireless WAN module are preinstalled by Lenovo, and are not removable by you. You are prohibited to replace it with any other wireless features. If the wireless LAN/Bluetooth combo module or the wireless WAN module requires replacement during warranty, it must be serviced by a Lenovo authorized servicer.
Low power license-exempt radio communication devices (RSS-247)
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
- This device may not cause interference.
- This device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.

When you use a wireless LAN/Bluetooth combo module in the 802.11a/n/ac/ax transmission mode, note that the devices for the band 5150–5250 MHz are only for indoor usage to reduce potential for harmful interference to co-channel Mobile Satellite systems.

Exposure of humans to RF fields (RSS-102)

The computer employs low gain integral antennas that do not emit RF field in excess of Health Canada limits for the general population; consult Safety Code 6, obtainable from Health Canada’s Web site at: http://www.hc-sc.gc.ca/ The radiated energy from the antennas connected to the wireless modules conforms to the Canada Portable RF exposure limit regarding IC RSS-102 Issue 5, Section 4 set forth for an uncontrolled environment, and are safe for intended operation in the conventional setting. Further RF exposure reduction can be achieved if the product can be kept as far as possible from the user body or set the device to lower output power if such function is available.

Electromagnetic emission notices

Refer to Generic Safety and Compliance Notices for information regarding the FCC compliance statement and other compliance statements.

Usage environment and your health

The wireless device installed in the computer operates within the guidelines identified by radio frequency (RF) safety standards and recommendations; therefore, Lenovo believes this product is safe for use by consumers. These standards and recommendations reflect the consensus of the worldwide scientific community, and result from deliberations of panels and committees of scientists, who continually review and interpret the extensive research literature.
In some situations or environments, the use of wireless devices might be restricted by the proprietor of a building or responsible representatives of an organization. For example, these situations and areas might include the following:

On board of airplanes, in hospitals or near petrol stations, blasting areas (with electro-explosive devices), medical implants or body-worn electronic medical devices, such as pace makers.
In any other environment where the risk of interference to other devices or services is perceived or identified as harmful.
If you are uncertain of the policy that applies to the use of wireless devices in a specific area (such as an airport or hospital), you are encouraged to ask for authorization to use a wireless device prior to turning on the computer.

Precautions against electrostatic discharges (ESD) in inserting or removing the nano-SIM card
