1.1. Safety
Information
The following safety precautions must be observed during all phases of operation, such as usage, service
or repair of any cellular terminal or mobile incorporating the
module. Manufacturers of the cellular terminal
should notify users and operating personnel of the following safety information by incorporating these
guidelines into all manuals of the product. Otherwise, Quectel assumes no liability for customers’ failure to
comply with these precautions.
Full attention must be paid to driving at all times in order to reduce the risk of an
accident. Using a mobile while driving (even with a handsfree kit) causes distraction
and can lead to an accident. Please comply with laws and regulations restricting the
use of wireless devices while driving.
Switch off the cellular terminal or mobile before boarding an aircraft. The operation of
wireless appliances in an aircraft is forbidden to prevent interference with
communication systems. If there is an Airplane Mode, it should be enabled prior to
boarding an aircraft. Please consult the airline staff for more restrictions on the use of
wireless devices on an aircraft.
Wireless devices may cause interference on sensitive medical equipment, so please
be aware of the restrictions on the use of wireless devices when in hospitals, clinics or
other healthcare facilities.
Cellular terminals or mobiles operating over radio signal and cellular network cannot
be guaranteed to connect in certain conditions, such as when the mobile bill is unpaid
or the (U)SIM card is invalid. When emergent help is needed in such conditions, use
emergency call if the device supports it. In order to make or receive a call, the cellular
terminal or mobile must be switched on in a service area with adequate cellular signal
strength. In an emergency, the device with emergency call function cannot be used as
the only contact method considering network connection cannot be guaranteed under
all circumstances.
The cellular terminal or mobile contains a transceiver. When it is ON, it receives and
transmits radio frequency signals. RF interference can occur if it is used close to TV
sets, radios, computers or other electric equipment.
In locations with explosive or potentially explosive atmospheres, obey all posted signs
and turn off wireless devices such as mobile phone or other cellular terminals. Areas
with explosive or potentially explosive atmospheres include fuelling areas, below
decks 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.
