Safety in aircraft
Due to possible interference caused by this product to an aircraft’s navigation system and its communications network, using this device’s function on board an airplane is against the law in most countries.

Environment restrictions
Do not use this product in gas stations, fuel depots, chemical plants or where blasting operations are in progress, or in potentially explosive atmospheres such as fueling areas, fuel storehouses, below deck on boats, chemical plants, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, and areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders. Please be aware that sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.

Explosive atmospheres
When in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere or where flammable materials exist, the product should be turned off and the user should obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death. Users are advised not to use the equipment at refueling points, such as service or gas stations, and are reminded of the need to observe restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots, chemical plants, or where blasting operations are in progress. Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked.
These include fueling areas, below deck on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, and areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders.

Road safety
Full attention must be given to driving at all times in order to reduce the risk of an accident. Using a device while driving causes distraction and can can lead to an accident.
You must comply with local laws and regulations restricting the use of wireless devices while driving.

Safety precautions for RF exposure

  • Avoid using your device near metal structures (for example, the steel frame of a building).
  • Avoid using your device near strong electromagnetic sources, such as microwave ovens, sound speakers, TV, and radio.
  • Use only original manufacturer-approved accessories or accessories that do not contain any metal.
  • Use of non-original manufacturer-approved accessories may violate your local RF exposure guidelines and should be avoided.

Interference with medical equipment functions
This product may cause medical equipment to malfunction. The use of this device is forbidden in most hospitals and medical clinics.
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your healthcare provider may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.
Turn your device OFF while inside healthcare facilities when any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or healthcare facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.

Non-ionizing radiation
Your device has an internal antenna. This product should be operated in its normal-use position to ensure the radioactive performance and safety of the interference. As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, users are advised that for satisfactory operation of the equipment and for the safety of personnel, it is recommended that no part of the human body be allowed to come too close to the antenna during operation of the equipment.
Use only the supplied integral antenna. Use of unauthorized or modified antennas may impair call quality and damage the device, causing loss of performance and SAR levels exceeding the recommended limits as well as result in noncompliance with the local regular requirement in your country.
To assure optimal device performance and ensure human exposure to RF energy is within the guidelines set forth in the relevant standards, always use your device only in its normal-use position. Contact with the antenna area may impair call quality and cause your device to operate at a higher power level than needed.
Avoiding contact with the antenna area when the device is IN USE optimizes the antenna performance and the battery life.

FCC Regulations
This mobile hotspot 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.

This mobile hotspot device 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 interference to 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.

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

RF Exposure Information (SAR)

  • This mobile hotspot device meets the govern- ment’s requirements for exposure to radio waves. This device is designed and manufactured not exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government. The exposure standard for wireless mobile devices 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 using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC with the device 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 device while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the device 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, the lower the power output.
  • While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various devices and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement.
  • The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model device with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model device is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid after searching on FCC ID: 2APXW-ATTCKTHS02.
  • For body-worn operation, this device has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guide- lines for use with an accessory that contains no metal and positions the handset a minimum of 1.0 cm from the body. Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines. If you do not use a body-worn accessory and are not holding the device at the ear, position the handset a minimum of 1.0 cm from your body when the device is switched on.
