Safety Information for Mobile Hotspot
READ THIS INFORMATION BEFORE USING YOUR MOBILE HOTSPOT
Exposure to radio frequency signals
Your mobile hotspot is a low power radio transmitter and receiver. When
it is ON, it receives and also sends out radio frequency (RF) signals. In
August 1996, the Federal Communications Commissions (FCC) adopted RF
exposure guidelines with safety levels for mobile hotspot. Those guidelines
are consistent with the safety standards previously set by both U.S. and
international standards bodies:
* ANSI C95.1 (1992)
** NCRP Report 86 (1986)
*** ICNIRP (1996)
Those standards were based on comprehensive and periodic evaluations of
the relevant scientific literature. For example, over 120 scientists, engineers,
and physicians from universities, government health agencies, and industry
reviewed the available body of research to develop the ANSI Standard
(C951).
The design of your device complies with the FCC guidelines (and those
standards).
* American National Standards Institute.
** National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements.
*** International Commission on Nonionizing Radiation Protection.
Antenna safety
Use only the an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas,
modifications, or attachments could result in violation of FCC regulations.
Please contact your local dealer for replacement antenna.
Do not use the mobile hotspot with a damaged antenna. If a damaged
antenna comes into contact with the skin, a minor burn may result. Please
contact your local dealer for replacement antenna.
