Important Notice

Because of the nature of wireless communications,transmission and reception

of data can never be guaranteed. Data may be delayed, corrupted (i.e., have

errors) or be totally lost. Although significant delays or losses of data are rare

when wireless devices such as the Sierra Wireless network card are used in a

normal manner with a well-constructed network, the SierraWireless network

card should not be used in situations where failure to transmit or receive data

could resultin damage of any kind to the user or any other party, including

butnot limited to personal injury, death, or loss of property. Sierra Wireless,

Inc. accepts no responsibility for damages of any kind resulting from delays or

errors in data transmitted or received using the Sierra Wireless network card,

or for failure of theSierra Wireless network card to transmit or receive such

data.

Safety and Hazards

Do not operate theSierra Wireless AirCard 710 wireless network card in areas

where blasting is in progress, where explosive atmospheres may be present, or

near medical equipment, life support equipment, or any equipment which

may be susceptible to any form of radio interference. In such areas, the Sierra

Wireless network card MUST BE POWERED OFF. The Sierra Wireless

network card can transmit signals that could interfere with this equipment.

Do not operate theSierra Wireless network card in any aircraft, whether the

aircraft is on the ground or in flight. In aircraft, the SierraWireless network

card MUST BE POWERED OFF. When operating, the Sierra Wireless network

card cantransmit signals that could interfere with various onboard systems.

Note: Some airlines may permit the 
use of cellular phones while the 
aircraft is on the ground and the door 
is open. Sierra Wireless network 
cards may be used at this time.

The driver or operator of any vehicle shouldnot operate the Sierra Wireless

network card while in control of a vehicle. Doing so will detract from the

driver or operator's control and operation of thatvehicle. In some states and

provinces, operating such communications devices while in control of a

vehicle is an offence.

FCC RF Exposure

Information

In August1996the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the United

States with its action in Report and Order FCC 96-326 adopted an updated

safety standard for human exposure to radio frequency (RF) electromagnetic

energy emitted by FCC regulated transmitters. Those guidelines are consistent

with the safety standard previously set by both U.S. and international

standards bodies. The design of this wireless network card complies with the

FCC guidelines and these international standards.

Use only the supplied or an approved antenna. Unauthorized antennas,

modifications, or attachments could impair callquality, damage the phone, or

result in violation of FCC regulations.

This device has been testedfor FCC RF exposure requirements in a laptop

PC. To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements the AirCard 710 PCS

GSM modem card must be operated with a minimum separation distance of

2 cm (0.8 inches) between theuser/nearby persons and the antenna.
