Unpacking the Client Adapter
Warning
In order to comply with RF exposure limits established in the ANSI C95.1 standards, it is recommended
when using a laptop with a PC card client adapter that the adapter’s integrated antenna is positioned
more than 2 inches (5 cm) from your body or nearby persons during extended periods of transmitting
or operating time. If the antenna is positioned less than 2 inches (5 cm) from the user, it is
recommended that the user limit exposure time.
Translated versions of these safety warnings are provided in Appendix C.
Unpacking the Client Adapter
Follow these steps to unpack the client adapter:
Step 1 Open the shipping container, and carefully remove the contents.
Step 2 Return all packing materials to the shipping container, and save it.
