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 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 AirCard 595 PC Card, or failure of the AirCard 595 PC Card to transmit
or receive such data.
Safety hazards
Do not operate the AirCard 595 PC Card in an environment that may be susceptible to radio interference resulting in
danger, specifically;
• Areas where prohibited by the law
o Follow any special rules and regulations and obey all signs and notices. Always turn off the host device
and remove the modem from the card slot when instructed to do so, or when you suspect that it may
cause interference or danger.
• Where explosive atmospheres may be present
o Do not operate your 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.
o Users are advised not to operate the 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.
