NO GUARANTEE

Like all wireless products, performance can vary based on location and environmental 
conditions.  Coverage areas are approximate.  Coverage areas within a specified zone may 
include locations with limited or no coverage, particularly near boundaries or in remote areas. 
Existing signal coverage does not guarantee future coverage on a device.  Actual coverage 
may vary. Coverage can periodically be affected by signal availability and strength due to 
several factors, which include (but are not limited to): network problems and changes, location 
within a building, traffic volume, service outages, technical limitations, signal strength, terrain, 
structures, foliage, weather, atmospheric, geographic, topographic and other  environmental 
or external conditions that may interfere with actual service, quality and availability, including 
the ability to make, receive and maintain signals.  Although service is available in most US 
metropolitan cities, service is not guaranteed in all areas.  User agrees not to hold Ambient 
Devices liable should there be a temporary or permanent loss of coverage.  When service is    
not available, the device will not operate.
