Safety Hazards
Do not operate the mobile broadband card in an environment that may be susceptible to radio interference resulting in danger
specifically;
Areas where prohibited by the law
Follow any special rules and regulations and obey all signs and notices. Always turn off the mobile broadband card
and power down the card when instructed to do so, or when you suspect that it may cause interference or danger.
Where explosive atmospheres may be present
Do not operate your mobile broadband card 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.
Users are advised not to operate the mobile broadband card 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.
Areas 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
Do not operate your mobile broadband card 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 mobile broadband card
must be turned off. The mobile broadband card may transmit signals that could interfere with this equipment.
On an aircraft, either on the ground or airborne
In addition to FAA requirements, many airline regulations state that you must suspend wireless operations before
boarding an airplane. Please ensure that the mobile broadband card is turned off as described in
Disable Dell Mobile
Broadband Card before boarding aircraft in order to comply with these regulations. The mobile broadband card can
transmit signals that could interfere with various onboard systems and controls.
