Safety and use

We recommend that you read this chapter carefully before using the USB-Modem. The manufacturer disclaims 
any liability for damage, which may result as a consequence of improper use of the USB-Modem or of use 
contrary to the instructions contained herein. 

Traffic Safety 

When driving, do not use the USB-Modem.
•  When switched on, the USB-Modem emits electromagnetic waves that can interfere with the vehicle’s  
  electronic systems such as ABS anti-lock brakes or airbags. To ensure that there is no problem, do not place the  
  USB-Modem on top of the dashboard or within an airbag deployment area.
•  Check with your car dealer or the car manufacturer to make sure that the dashboard is adequately shielded  
  from modem RF energy. 

Conditions of Use

•  Switch the USB-Modem off before boarding an aircraft.
•  Switch the USB-Modem off when you are in health care facilities, except in designated areas. As with many  
  other types of equipment now in regular use, the USB-Modem can interfere with other electrical or electronic  
  devices, or equipment-using radio frequencies.
•  Switch the USB-Modem off when you are near gas or flammable liquids. Strictly obey all signs and instructions  
  posted in a fuel depot, petrol station, chemical plant, or in any potentially explosive atmosphere.
•  When the USB-Modem is switched on, it should be kept at least 15 cm from any medical device such as a  
  pacemaker, a hearing aid or insulin pump, etc. 
•  Do not let children use the USB-Modem without supervision.
•  When replacing the cover, please note that the USB-Modem may contain substances that could create an  
  allergic reaction.
•  Always handle the USB-Modem with care and keep it in a clean and dust-free place.
•  Do not allow the USB-Modem to be exposed to adverse weather or environmental conditions (moisture,  
  humidity, rain, infiltration of liquids, dust, sea air, etc). The manufacturer’s recommended operating  
  temperature range is -25°C to +55°C. 
•  Do not open, dismantle or attempt to repair the USB-Modem yourself.
•  Do not drop, throw or bend the USB-Modem.
•  Do not paint it.

The USB-Modem is in compliance with the essential requirements and other relevant provisions of the Waste 
Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive 2002/96/EC (WEEE Directive).
