Care and Maintenance
As with any electronic device, the USB modem must be handled with care to ensure
reliable operation. Follow these guidelines in using and storing the USB modem:
䢇The USB modem should fit easily into an available USB slot. Forcing the USB modem
into a slot may damage the connector pins.
䢇Protect the USB modem from liquids, dust, and excessive heat.
䢇When not installed in your computer, store the USB modem in a safe place.
䢇Remove the USB modem before storing or transporting your computer.
䢇When inserting or removing the USB modem, always grip it by the sides rather than the
end, as this prevents damage to the USB modem.
䢇Do not use the USB modem with a handheld computer; it is designed only for notebook
or desktop computers running Windows Vista, Windows XP, or Mac OS X.
䢇Do not handle or operate the USB modem while driving or operating a vehicle. Doing
so may distract you from properly operating the vehicle. In some jurisdictions, operating
communication devices while in control of a vehicle is a criminal offense.
