Manufacturers of the cellular terminal are advised to convey the following safety information to users and operating personnel and to incorporate these guidelines into all manuals supplied with the product. Failure to comply with these precautions violates safety standards of design, manufacture and intended use of the product. Panasonic assumes no liability for customer failure to comply with these precautions. When in a hospital or other health care facility, observe the restrictions on the use of mobiles. Switch Personal Computer or Handheld Computer incorporating wireless WAN modem off, if instructed to do so by the guidelines posted in sensitive areas. Medical equipment may be sensitive to RF energy. The operation of cardiac pacemakers, other implanted medical equipment and hearing aids can be affected by interference from Personal Computer or Handheld Computer incorporating wireless WAN modem placed close to the device. If in doubt about po-tential danger, contact the physician or the manufacturer of the device to verify that the equipment is properly shielded. Pacemaker patients are advised to keep their Personal Computer or Handheld Computer incorporating wireless WAN modem away from the pacemaker, while it is on. Switch off Personal Computer or Handheld Computer incorporating wireless WAN mo-dem before boarding an aircraft. Make sure it cannot be switched on inadvertently. The operation of wireless appliances in an aircraft is forbidden to prevent interference with communications systems. Failure to observe these instructions may lead to the suspen-sion or denial of cellular services to the offender, legal action, or both. For details on usage of this unit in aircrafts please consult and follow instruction pro-vided by the airline.DFQW5716ZAT_FZ-G1mk1_8_7_OI_M.indb 8 2013/01/11 13:34:56
9Read Me First Do not operate Personal Computer or Handheld Computer incorporating wireless WAN modem in the presence of ammable gases or fumes. Switch off the cellular terminal when you are near petrol stations, fuel depots, chemical plants or where blasting op-erations are in progress. Operation of any electrical equipment in potentially explosive atmospheres can constitute a safety hazard. Your Personal Computer or Handheld Computer incorporating wireless WAN modem re-ceives and transmits radio frequency energy while switched on. Remember that interfer-ence can occur if it is used close to TV sets, radios, computers or inadequately shielded equipment. Follow any special regulations and always switch off Personal Computer or Handheld Computer incorporating wireless WAN modem wherever forbidden, or when you suspect that it may cause interference or danger. Road safety comes rst! Do not use a Personal Computer or Handheld Computer in-corporating wireless WAN modem while driving a vehicle. Do not place the computer with wireless WAN modem in an area where it could cause personal injury to the driver or passengers. It is recommended to stow the unit in the boot or secure stowage area while driving. Do not place the computer with wireless WAN modem in an area over an air bag or in the vicinity where an air bag may deploy. Air bags inate with great force and if the computer with wireless WAN modem is placed in the air bag deployment area may be propelled with great force and cause serious injury to occupants of the vehicle. IMPORTANT! Personal Computer or Handheld Computer incorporating wireless WAN modem operate using radio signals and cellular networks cannot be guaranteed to connect in all condi-tions. Therefore, you should never rely solely upon any wireless device for essential communications, for example emergency calls.Remember, in order to make or receive calls, Personal Computer or Handheld Comput-er incorporating wireless WAN modem must be switched on and in a service area with adequate cellular signal strength.Some networks do not allow for emergency calls if certain network services or phone features are in use (e.g. lock functions, xed dialing etc.). You may need to deactivate those features before you can make an emergency call.Some networks require that a valid SIM card be properly inserted in Personal Computer or Handheld Computer incorporating wireless WAN modem.CAUTION:Risk of Explosion if Battery is replaced by an Incorrect Type.

10Read Me FirstRegulatory InformationFederal Communications Commission Radio Frequency Interference StatementNote: 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 in-terference 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 com-munications. 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 re-ception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encour-aged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:l Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.l Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.l Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.l Consult the Panasonic Service Center or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.WarningTo assure continued compliance, use only shielded interface cables when connecting to a computer or peripheral. Also, any changes or modications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate this equip-ment.FCC RF Exposure Warning:l This equipment is provided with PC Card slot that could be used with wireless trans-mitters, which will be specically recom-mended when they become available.Other third-party wireless transmitters have not been RF exposure evaluated for use with this computer and may not com-ply with FCC RF exposure requirements.<Only for model with wireless LAN/wireless WAN/Bluetooth>l This equipment complies with FCC radia-tion exposure limits set forth for an uncon-trolled environment.l This equipment may not be co-located or operated with any other antenna or trans-mitter.l This device meets the government’s re-quirements for exposure to radio waves. This device is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for expo-sure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government.l The exposure standard for wireless device employs a unit of measurement known as the Specic Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg.* Tests for SAR are conducted using stan-dard operating positions accepted by the FCC with the device transmitting at its highest certied power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certied 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 poser required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output.<Only for model with wireless LAN>This product is restricted to indoor use due to its operation in the 5.15 to 5.25 GHz fre-quency range. FCC requires this product to be used indoors for the frequency range 5.15 to 5.25 GHz to reduce the potential for harm-ful interference to co-channel Mobile Satellite systems. High power radars are allocated as primary users of the 5.25 to 5.35 GHz and 5.65 to 5.85 GHz bands.
