Care and Maintenance
As with any electronic device, 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 an available USB slot. Forcing the device into a slot may
damage the connector pins.
• Protect your USB modem from excessive moisture and heat, and from prolonged exposure to the sun.
• When it is not connected to your computer, store your USB modem in the pouch that came with the
modem to avoid dust.
• Remove your USB modem before storing or transporting your computer.
• When inserting or removing your USB modem, always grip from the sides rather than the end, as this
prevents damage to the USB modem.
• Do not use your USB modem while driving a vehicle, as it may distract you from properly operating
the vehicle.
• Dispose of your USB modem in accordance with EPA guidelines. For more information, visit
