1. Installation and Configuration
Getting started
General Warning - Do not connect the Wireless Broadband Modem to your PC
before the Mobility Manager software has been installed (Installation CD-ROM).
Otherwise, the application will not work.
BATTERY NOTE: It is recommended that you charge the Wireless Broadband
Modem for a minimum of twelve hours before first use, particularly if you plan on
using it in a portable environment. Otherwise, the battery will not perform as
well. It is highly recommended that you charge the modem for three hours on an
ongoing basis if you consistently require portability. To charge the modem,
simply connect it to a power outlet. The modem does not have to be turned on to
charge. To monitor your battery power, view the battery indicator on the Mobility
Manager (See Section 2- Using the Modem).
Battery Safety- Your Wireless Broadband Modem contains and can be powered
from a rechargeable Li-Ion battery. Never use a charger that is damaged or
modified in any way. Use only the charger that was provided with the device.
Battery charging time depends on the remaining battery charge and the type of
battery and charger used. The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds
of times, but the battery charge capacity will gradually degrade over time. If left
unused, a fully charged battery will discharge itself over time. Do not attempt to
remove and replace the battery, contact an authorized service center thru the
Technical Support desk. Do not leave the battery connected to a charger for
more than 7 days, since overcharging may shorten its capacity and operating life.
Always try to keep the device at room temperature. A device with a hot or cold
battery may not work correctly, even if the battery is fully charged.
Handling the Wireless Broadband Modem

2. When transporting or storing your modem, remove the antenna and
store it in a safe place.
3. Keep the Modem away from liquids, excessive heat and dust.
4. Keep your battery charged if you consistently require portability.
