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.
⬤Do not use the USB modem with a handheld computer; it is designed only for notebook or desktop computers running Windows Vista™, Windows XP, or Mac OS X.
⬤Do not handle or operate the USB modem while driving or operating a vehicle. Doing so may distract you from properly operating the vehicle. In some jurisdictions, operating communication devices while in control of a vehicle is a criminal offense.
