4: Care and Maintenance of Your
Network Card
You
can
ensure
reliable
operation
and
long
life
of
your
AirCard
modem
by
adhering
to
these
guidelines
in
storage
and
use:
•
Do
not
apply
adhesive
labels
to
the
AirCard
modem
or
SIM.
This
may
cause
the
AirCard
modem
or
SIM
to
become
jammed
inside
the
slot,
or
prevent
it
from
being
inserted
properly.
•
When
not
installed
in
your
computer,
store
the
AirCard
modem
and
SIM
in
a
safe
place.
Note: Do not insert the AirCard
modem before installing the
software. See
“AirCard Instal-
lation”
on page 11. Protect the
card from liquids, dust, and
excessive heat (see
“Environ-
mental specifications”
on
page 30 for details).
•
The
AirCard
modem
should
fit
easily
into
your
computer’s
PC
/
Express
Card
slot.
Forcing
the
AirCard
modem
into
the
slot
may
damage
the
connector
pins.
•
For
AirCard
modems
with
external
antennas,
optimal
signal
strength
is
usually
obtained
when
the
antenna
is
pointing
straight
up.
The
antenna
should
bend
easily
at
the
hinge.
Do
not
forcefully
bend
the
antenna.
