Safety Precautions
<Only.for.model.with.wireless.WAN>
The.following.safety.precautions.must.be.observed.during.all.phases.of.the.operation,.usage,.service.or.repair.of.
any.Personal.Computer.or.Handheld.Computer.incorporating.wireless.WAN.modem..Manufacturers.of.the.cellular.
terminal.are.advised.to.convey.the.following.safety.information.to.users.and.operating.personnel.and.to.incorporate.
these.guidelines.into.all.manuals.supplied.with.the.product..Failure.to.comply.with.these.precautions.violates.safety.
standards.of.design,.manufacture.and.intended.use.of.the.product..Panasonic.assumes.no.liability.for.customer.failure.
to.comply.with.these.precautions.
When.in.a.hospital.or.other.health.care.facility,.observe.the.restrictions.on.the.use.of.mobiles..Switch.
Personal.Computer.or.Handheld.Computer.incorporating.wireless.WAN.modem.off,.if.instructed.to.do.so.by.
the.guidelines.posted.in.sensitive.areas..Medical.equipment.may.be.sensitive.to.RF.energy.
The.operation.of.cardiac.pacemakers,.other.implanted.medical.equipment.and.hearing.aids.can.be.affected.
by.interference.from.Personal.Computer.or.Handheld.Computer.incorporating.wireless.WAN.modem.
placed.close.to.the.device..If.in.doubt.about.potential.danger,.contact.the.physician.or.the.manufacturer.of.
the.device.to.verify.that.the.equipment.is.properly.shielded..Pacemaker.patients.are.advised.to.keep.their.
Personal.Computer.or.Handheld.Computer.incorporating.wireless.WAN.modem.away.from.the.pacemaker,.
while.it.is.on.
Switch.off.Personal.Computer.or.Handheld.Computer.incorporating.wireless.WAN.modem.before.boarding.
an.aircraft..Make.sure.it.cannot.be.switched.on.inadvertently..The.operation.of.wireless.appliances.in.
an.aircraft.is.forbidden.to.prevent.interference.with.communications.systems..Failure.to.observe.these.
instructions.may.lead.to.the.suspension.or.denial.of.cellular.services.to.the.offender,.legal.action,.or.both.
For.details.on.usage.of.this.unit.in.aircrafts.please.consult.and.follow.instruction.provided.by.the.airline.
Do.not.operate.Personal.Computer.or.Handheld.Computer.incorporating.wireless.WAN.modem.in.the.
presence.of.flammable.gases.or.fumes..Switch.off.the.cellular.terminal.when.you.are.near.petrol.stations,.
fuel.depots,.chemical.plants.or.where.blasting.operations.are.in.progress..Operation.of.any.electrical.
equipment.in.potentially.explosive.atmospheres.can.constitute.a.safety.hazard.
Your.Personal.Computer.or.Handheld.Computer.incorporating.wireless.WAN.modem.receives.and.transmits.
radio.frequency.energy.while.switched.on..Remember.that.interference.can.occur.if.it.is.used.close.to.TV.
sets,.radios,.computers.or.inadequately.shielded.equipment..Follow.any.special.regulations.and.always.
switch.off.Personal.Computer.or.Handheld.Computer.incorporating.wireless.WAN.modem.wherever.
forbidden,.or.when.you.suspect.that.it.may.cause.interference.or.danger.
Road.safety.comes.first!.Do.not.use.a.Personal.Computer.or.Handheld.Computer.incorporating.wireless.
WAN.modem.while.driving.a.vehicle..Do.not.place.the.computer.with.wireless.WAN.modem.in.an.area.
where.it.could.cause.personal.injury.to.the.driver.or.passengers..It.is.recommended.to.stow.the.unit.in.the.
boot.or.secure.stowage.area.while.driving.
Do.not.place.the.computer.with.wireless.WAN.modem.in.an.area.over.an.air.bag.or.in.the.vicinity.where.an.
air.bag.may.deploy.
Air.bags.inflate.with.great.force.and.if.the.computer.with.wireless.WAN.modem.is.placed.in.the.air.bag.
deployment.area.may.be.propelled.with.great.force.and.cause.serious.injury.to.occupants.of.the.vehicle.
IMPORTANT!
Personal.Computer.or.Handheld.Computer.incorporating.wireless.WAN.modem.operate.using.radio.signals.
and.cellular.networks.cannot.be.guaranteed.to.connect.in.all.conditions..Therefore,.you.should.never.rely.
solely.upon.any.wireless.device.for.essential.communications,.for.example.emergency.calls.
Remember,.in.order.to.make.or.receive.calls,.Personal.Computer.or.Handheld.Computer.incorporating.
wireless.WAN.modem.must.be.switched.on.and.in.a.coverage.area.with.adequate.cellular.signal.strength.
Some.networks.do.not.allow.for.emergency.calls.if.certain.network.services.or.phone.features.are.in.use.
(e.g..lock.functions,.fixed.dialing.etc.)..You.may.need.to.deactivate.those.features.before.you.can.make.an.
emergency.call.
Some.networks.require.that.a.valid.SIM.card.be.properly.inserted.in.Personal.Computer.or.Handheld.
