User's Manual

Children
Do not allow children to play with your datacard. They could hurt themselves or others, or could
accidentally damage the datacard. Your datacard also contains small parts with sharp edges that may cause
an
injury or which could become detached and create a choking hazard.
Driving
Do not use data card while driving; park the vehicle first.
SIM cards
To protect against damage from electronic discharge (ESD) do not touch the SIM card connectors. As a
precaution, always make sure that the datacard is already in your hand before you insert or remove the SIM
card.
Accessories
Only use Option approved accessories. Do not connect with incompatible products. When used with
accessories such as external antennas, Option can only guarantee safe and correct operation of our products
if the accessories are tested and approved by us. To comply with international safety requirements; when
using an Option approved external antenna, you must ensure that it is kept from the body at a distance
greater than 20 cm.
Safe distance
We advise the end-user to keep a minimum distance of 20 cm between him and the device.
The datacard has been thoroughly tested to comply with SAR requirements. These tests simulate the
absorption by the human body of radiation from the datacard.
The SAR limit as defined by the European Council Recommendation is 2,0 W/kg for a mass of 10g
(R&TTE Directive 1999 519 EC). The SAR measurements where performed at a distance of 15 mm from a
simulated human body, as required by the Vodafone Test Specification
(VFTST_1.901_SAR_Data-cards-V1.0).
For FCC, the measurements were made according to the Supplement C to OET Bulletin 65 of the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) Guidelines [OET 65] for evaluating compliance of mobile and
portable devices with FCC limits for human exposure (general population) to
radiofrequency emissions. The device was tested in lap held position with the bottom of the computer in
direct contact against the flat phantom.
These guidelines define a limit of 1,6 W/kg averaged over a mass of 1 g.
Supply voltage
The PCMCIA card has to be supplied by a limited power source according to EN 60950-
1:2001.
