CONFORMANCE STATEMENTS
The TG-5 850/1900 MHz (Dual Band) models are in conformance with the requirements of the
applicable EU CE Council Directives.
The TG-5 850/1900 MHz Dual Band models are in conformance with all applicable FCC requirements.
FCC Part 15 Class B Compliance
TG-5 model has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. Changes or modifications not expressly
approved by Telular Corporation will void your authority to operate the equipment per FCC part
15 paragraph 15.21.These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference 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 communications. 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 reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment OFF and ON, the user
is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and the terminal.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the terminal is
connected.
• Consult your Authorized Telular Distributor or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
SAFETY INFORMATION
The Telguard TG-5 functions as both a radio transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, the TG-5
receives and sends out radio frequency (RF) energy. The TG-5 GSM 850/1900 Dual-Band unit
operates in the frequency ranges of 824 MHz to 849 MHz and 1850 MHz to 1909 MHz. When you
use the TG-5, the cellular system handling your call controls the power level at which the unit transmits.
Exposure to RF (Radio Frequency) Energy
In 1991, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), and in 1992, the American
National Standards Institute (ANSI), updated the 1982 ANSI Standard for safety levels with
respect to human exposure to RF energy. After reviewing the available body of research, more
than 120 scientists, engineers and physicians from universities, government health agencies and
industry developed this updated Standard. In March, 1993, the U.S. Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) proposed the adoption of this updated Standard. The design of the Telular Telguard
®
TG-5 complies with this updated Standard. Of course, if you want to limit RF exposure even further than
the updated ANSI Standard, you may choose to control the duration of your calls and operate your phone
in the most power-efficient manner. To insure compliance with the standard, when selecting a mounting
location for your Telguard TG-5 do not mount it (or its associated antenna) in an area where the
general public could reasonably be within 8 inches (20 centimeters) of the antenna.

Temperature Environment
Operating Temperatur
e: From -10°C to +50°C ; Up to 95% relative humidity (non-condensing).
Storage Temperature:
From -40°C to +60°C; Up to 95% relative humidity (non-condensing).
Antenna Care and Replacement
Do not use the Telguard TG-5 with a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into contact
with the skin, a minor burn may result. Have the antenna replaced by a qualified technician
immediately. Use only a manufacturer-approved antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications,
or attachments could damage the Telguard TG-5.
Exposure to electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF energy. However, RF energy from cellular
devices may affect inadequately shielded electronic equipment.
RF energy may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic operating and
entertainment systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its representative to
determine if these systems are adequately shielded from external RF energy.
Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices (such as pacemakers, hearing aids,
etc.) to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF energy.
