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:

The USB modem should fit easily into your USB slot. Forcing the USB modem into a slot may damage the connector pins.

Protect the USB modem from liquids, dust, and excessive heat.

When not installed in your computer, store the USB modem in a safe place.

Remove the USB modem before storing or transporting your computer.

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.

To avoid the risk of explosion, use the same battery model when replacing the battery. Properly dispose of the used battery.

The USB modem’s USB connector is adjustable to three positions. Do not force the hinge past the last position—this may break the connector. For more information, see the picture on page 19.

Do not use the USB modem with a handheld computer; it is designed only for notebook or desktop computers running Windows Vista, Windows XP, Windows 2000, or Mac OS X.
