Motorola Safety and General Information
IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON SAFE AND EFFICIENT OPERATION.
READ THIS INFORMATION BEFORE USING YOUR MOTOROLA IM240 WIRELESS MODEM.
RF Operational Characteristics
Your Motorola product contains a radio frequency transmitter to convey the information you wish to send as well
as occasional automatic signals used to sustain connection to the wireless network, and a receiver which enables
you to receive communication and connection information from the network.
Antenna Care
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or
attachments could damage the radio product and may violate FCC regulations. When using any approved
accessory antenna, position it at least eight inches (20 cm) from any part of any person.
DO NOT hold the antenna when the radio product is "IN USE". Holding the antenna affects call quality and may
cause the product to operate at a higher power level than needed.
Portable Radio Product Operation and EME Exposure
Your Motorola product is designed to comply with the following national and international standards and
guidelines regarding exposure of human beings to radio frequency electromagnetic energy (EME):
United States Federal Communications Commission, Code of Federal Regulations; 47 CFR part 2 sub-
part J.
American National Standards Institute (ANSI) / Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). C95. 1-
1992.
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). C95. 1-1999 Edition.
International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1998.
Ministry of Health (Canada). Safety Code 6. Limits of Human Exposure to Radiofrequency Electromagnetic Fields
in the Frequency Range from 3 kHz to 300 GHz, 1999.
Australian Communications Authority Radiocommunications (Electromagnetic Radiation - Human Exposure)
Standard 2003
ANATEL, Brasil Regulatory Authority, Resolution 303 (July 2, 2002) “Regulation of the limitation of exposure to
electrical, magnetic, and electromagnetic fields in the radio frequency range between 9 kHz and 300 GHz.”
"Attachment to Resolution 303 from July 2, 2002."
The iM240 modem card has been tested for compliance with FCC / IC RF exposure limits in laptop computer
configurations with side PCMCIA slots, and palmtop computers with rear PCMCIA slots, and can be used in
laptop computers and palmtop computers with substantially similar physical dimensions, construction, and
electrical and RF characteristics.
Your wireless modem is designed and manufactured to operate with the antenna in the vertical position. To
assure optimal radio product performance and make sure exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy is
within the guidelines set forth in the above standards, be sure always to put the antenna in the vertical position
when operating the wireless modem in any computer that is sitting on your body.

ALL MODELS WITH FCC ID AZ489FT5834 MEET THE GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE
TO RADIO WAVES.
Your wireless modem is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the
emission limits for exposure to radiofrequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of
the U.S. Government. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF
energy for the general population. The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent
scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The standards include a
substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for wireless modems employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption
Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg.1 Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating
positions reviewed by the FCC with the modem 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
modem while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the modem is designed to operate
