Wireless communications

IMPORTANT Notice

Due to the transmission and reception properties of wireless communications, data can

occasionally be lost or delayed. This can be due to the variation in radio signal strength that

results from changes in the characteristics of the radio transmission path. Although data loss is

rare, the environment where you operate the MC550 Modem may adversely affect

communications.

Variations in radio signal strength are referred to as fading. Fading is caused by several

different factors including signal reflection, the ionosphere, and interference from other radio

channels.

Verizon Wireless or its partners will not be held responsible for damages of any kind resulting

from the delays or errors in data transmitted or received with the MC550 Modem device, or

failure of the MC550 Modem device to transmit or receive such data.

1-2#34$"-5-6*7$

Do not operate the MC550 Modem device in an environment that may be susceptible to radio

interference resulting in danger specifically;

Areas where prohibited by the law

oFollow any special rules and regulations and obey all signs and notices. Always turn

off the host device and remove the modem from the USB port when instructed to

do so, or when you suspect that it may cause interference or danger.

Where explosive atmospheres may be present

oDo not operate the MC550 Modem in any area where a potentially explosive

atmosphere may exist. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire

resulting in bodily injury or even death. Be aware and comply with all signs and

instructions.

oUsers are advised not to operate the MC550 Modem while at a refueling point or

service station. Users are reminded to observe restrictions on the use of radio

equipment in fuel depots (fuel storage and distribution areas), chemical plants or

where blasting operations are in progress.

oAreas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often but not always clearly

marked. Potential locations can include gas stations, below deck on boats,

chemical transfer or storage facilities, vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such

as propane or butane), areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as

grain, dust or metal powders, and any other area where you would normally be

advised to turn off your vehicle engine.

Near Medical and life support equipment

oDo not operate the MC550 Modem in any area where medical equipment, life

support equipment, or near any equipment that may be susceptible to any form of

radio interference. In such areas, the host communications device must be turned

off. The MC550 Modem may transmit signals that could interfere with this

equipment.

On an aircraft, either on the ground or airborne

oIn addition to FAA requirements, many airline regulations state that you must

suspend wireless operations before boarding an airplane. Please ensure that the

host device is turned off and the MC550 Modem is removed from the USB port

prior to boarding aircraft in order to comply with these regulations. The MC550

Modem can transmit signals that could interfere with various onboard systems and

controls.

While operating a vehicle

oThe driver or operator of any vehicle should not operate a wireless data device

while in control of a vehicle. Doing so will detract from the driver or operator's

control and operation of that vehicle. In some countries, operating such

communications devices while in control of a vehicle is an offense.
