Care &
Maintenance
The Ripwave Modem is designed to give years of trouble-free
service. To ensure operation, read the following care and
maintenance instructions.
 Keep the Modem free of dust and moisture. If the Modem gets
wet, use a towel to dry it immediately.
 Handle the Modem gently. Dropping it or mishandling it can
cause damage to the plastic shell or the electronic circuitry.
 Keep the Modem away from high temperatures. Heat can cause
damage to the plastic shell or the electronic circuitry.
 Use only a mild detergent and a soft, damp cloth to clean the
Modem. Do not use any chemicals or abrasives to clean the
plastic shell.
 If there is a problem with the Modem, do not attempt to repair
it yourself. Report the problem to your Service Provider.
 If you are going to upgrade your Operating System after
loading the Navini monitoring software (Navini Ripwave
Monitor or Navini Diagnostics), you must first uninstall the
monitoring software prior to upgrading the OS. Otherwise, the
monitoring software will not work. See Uninstall instructions
in this Guide.
 The Ripwave Modem must be left powered ON whenever you
shut down or restart any Windows 98 or ME platforms. If the
Modem is off, a blue screen appears on the monitor. In the
event this happens you will mostly likely have to power cycle
the PC.
