Sierra Wireless 595U manual 106

4.Slide the lever on the bottom of the USB modem in the direction indicated by the triangle to release the USB modem’s USB connector.

5.Adjust the USB connector to the desired angle. (The USB connector is adjustable to three positions—approximately 90, 135, and 160 degrees. Do not force the hinge past the last position—this may break the connector.)

6.Gripping both sides of the USB modem, insert it into your computer’s USB slot.

IMPORTANT!

When inserting or removing your USB modem, always grip the USB modem by its sides, as this prevents damage to the USB modem.

Alternatively, you can attach the USB extension cable to your computer’s USB slot, and then connect the USB modem to the USB extension cable.

Note:

If your computer’s USB slot is vertical, use the USB extension cable.

Do not insert the USB modem or USB extension cable into a USB hub or a USB slot on a keyboard.

Warning:

If the orientation of your computer’s USB slot or the thickness of your computer are such that pressure is applied to the USB modem’s end or side (as shown by the red circles in the drawings below), you may damage the USB modem or your computer. In such cases, do not insert the USB modem directly into your computer’s USB slot; use the USB extension cable instead.

When the USB modem is properly inserted, the PWR LED is lit, and the USB modem’s battery starts to charge.
