EU regulatory conformanceBody worn operationThe device complies with RF specifications when used near your ear or at a distance of 1.5 cm from your body. Ensure that the device accessories, such as a device 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 organisation, 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 at the ear is 0.529 W/kg, and when properly worn on the body is 0.631 W/kg.StatementHereby, Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. declares that this device is in compliance with the essential requirements and other relevant provisions of Directive 1999/5/EC and Directive 2011/65/EU.For the declaration of conformity, visit the website http://consumer.huawei.com/certification.The following marking is included in the product:
This device may be operated in all member states of the EU.Adhere to national and local regulations where the device is used.This device may be restricted for use, depending on the local network.Restrictions in the 2.4 GHz band:Norway: This subsection does not apply for the geographical area within a radius of 20 km from the centre of Ny-Ålesund.FCC Regulatory ComplianceBody worn operationThe device complies with RF specifications when used near your ear or at a distance of 1.5 cm from your body. Ensure that the device accessories, such as a device 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 is also designed to meet the requirements for exposure to radio waves established by the Federal Communications Commission (USA).The SAR limit adopted by the USA is 1.6 W/kg averaged over one gram of tissue. The highest SAR value reported to the FCC for this device type complies with this limit.The highest SAR value reported to the FCC for this device type when using at the ear is 0.844 W/kg, and when properly worn on the body is 1.370 W/kg, and when using the Wi-Fi hotspot function is 1.234 W/Kg.FCC statementThis 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 device 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 device 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 perform one or more of the following operations to try to correct the interference:--Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.--Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.--Connect the device 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: Any changes or modifications to this device not expressly approved by Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the device.Personal Information and Data SecurityThe use of some functions or third-party applications on your device could result in your personal information and data being lost or becoming accessible to others.
