Exposure Information to Radio Frequency Energy This USB 1.1 device has been tested in different notebooks for compliance with the SAR requirements. Measured SAR values according to the CE regulations: The maximum measured body SAR value (averaged over a mass of 10 g and distance between phantom and antenna of 15 mm) is 0,439 W/kg for GSM900, which is well below the limit of 2 W/kg. The maximum measured body SAR value (averaged over a mass of 10 g and distance between phantom and antenna of 15 mm) is 0,556 W/kg for DCS1800, which is well below the limit of 2 W/kg. The maximum measured body SAR value (averaged over a mass of 10 g and distance between phantom and antenna of 15 mm) is 0,849 W/kg for WCDMA 2100, which is well below the limit of 2 W/kg. Measured SAR values according to the FCC regulations: The maximum measured body SAR value (averaged over a mass of 1 g and bottom of computer in direct contact with phantom) is 0,369 W/kg for GSM850, which is well below the limit of 1.6 W/kg. The maximum measured body SAR value (averaged over a mass of 1 g and bottom of computer in direct contact with phantom) is 0,733 W/kg for PCS1900, which is well below the limit of 1.6 W/kg. CAUTION: • Users concerned with the risk of Radio Frequency exposure may wish to limit the duration of their calls and to position the antenna as far away from the body as is practical. • The USB Stick has been tested with specific integral antenna for SAR compliance with three notebook computers having vertical and horizontal USB slots.

ICON 225 Safety Leaflet Your ICON 225 is like a mobile phone Your ICON 225 uses the same technology as a mobile phone. It is important that you always obey all safety regulations related to mobile phone use. If you have any doubt about the safe operation of your ICON 225 you should remove the ICON 225 from the PC and seek advice from authorized personnel. This device may not be connected to a USB hub, nor to a PC network, nor to a USB 1.0 interface. 1. Safety Measurements Please read the following guidelines carefully. Not following these guidelines can cause harm to the USB stick, yourself or other persons. 1.1 General recommendations for use ƒ Always treat your product with care and keep in a clean and dust-free place. Do not expose your product to open flames or lit tobacco products. ƒ Do not expose to liquid, moisture or humidity. Do not expose the ICON 225 to rain, or other liquids. ƒ Do not drop, throw or try to bend your product. ƒ Do not paint your product. ƒ Do not attempt to disassemble your product. Doing so may be dangerous and it will void the warranty. ƒ Do not touch the antenna unnecessarily. 1.2 Traveling: Handle the USB stick with care while traveling. It is recommended to remove the USB stick from the laptop. 1.3 Ambient temperatures: Do not expose the ICON 225 or the antenna to ambient temperatures beyond the range of - 25 and +60 degrees Celsius. 1.4 Explosive atmosphere: Turn off your PC in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere. It is rare, but your PC could generate sparks, which could cause an explosion or fire. Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are not always clearly marked. They include fuelling areas (petrol filling stations), below deck 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. Do not transport or store your PC and accessories in the compartment of a vehicle, which contains flammable gas, liquid, or explosives. 1.5 Blasting areas – construction sites: Turn off your PC when in a blasting area in order to avoid interfering with two- way radios used in blasting operations. 1.6 Do not use on aircraft: Using a wireless devices on aircraft can cause interference and is illegal. Remove your ICON 225 if you intend to use your PC whilst in an aircraft. Do not use it when the plane is on the ground without permission from the aircraft crew. 1.7 Do not use in hospitals: Please ensure you follow any local regulations or rules. People are often asked to switch off all electronic devices in some areas of a hospital; this is a recommendation that Option fully supports. Using the ICON 225 close to sensitive electronic devices could possibly result in interference. If you intend to use your PC in such areas, you must remove the ICON 225. 1.8 Interference from radio signals: Option relies on advice from health authorities and relevant expert bodies about potential undesired responses to radio emissions from the ICON 225. 1.9 Immunity to interference: Electromagnetic interference is the disturbance of the normal operation of a device due to its undesired response to radio signals from an external source. Occasionally in some situations you may hear short sounds coming from audio equipment such as radio or multimedia PC. However, these audible signals do not interfere with the operation of the equipment. The 1989 Directive from the European Commission (89/336/ECC)13 governing all forms of electronic equipment concerns interference that such equipment produces and its immunity to interference from outside. Any equipment compliant with that directive is unlikely to suffer interference. All wireless devices may get interference, which could affect performance. 1.10 Cardiac pacemakers, implanted defibrillators & other medical implant devices It is possible that the ICON 225 may interfere with some types of pacemakers or implanted defibrillators when operated close to the implanted device. You should seek advice from your doctor that is specific to the implant before using the ICON 225. Health authorities in many countries have set up advisory services for medical devices and implants including providing advice about maintaining separation distance between the mobile device or other radio frequency equipment and the implant. Option operating companies reflect the advice given by their relevant health authority or national advisory service and/or as a minimum indicate a separation distance of at least 20 cm between the ICON 225 or other radio frequency terminal equipment and the embedded device. 1.11 Hearing devices: People with hearing aids or other cochlear implants may experience interfering noises when using mobile devices or when one is nearby. The level of interference will depend on the type of mobile device, the type of hearing device and the distance between the two. Increasing the distance between the ICON 225 and hearing device may reduce interference. 1.12 Children: Do not allow children to play with your ICON 225. They could hurt themselves or others, or could accidentally damage the ICON 225. Your ICON 225 contains small parts with sharp edges that may cause an injury or which could become detached and create a choking hazard. 1 .13 Driving: Do NOT use the ICON 225 while driving; park the vehicle first. 1.14 SIM cards: To protect against damage from electrostatic discharge (ESD) do not touch the SIM card connectors. As precaution, always make sure that ICON 225 is already in your hand before you insert or remove the SIM card. a 1.15 Accessories: Only use Option approved accessories. Do not connect with incompatible products. When used with accessories Option can only guarantee safe and correct operation of our products if the accessories are tested and approved by us. 1.16 Safe distance: For day-to-day use we would advise the user to keep a minimum distance from the antenna of 20 cm. The ICON 225 has been thoroughly tested to comply with S…
