A: Regulatory Information
Rev 2.02 Sep.10
Important notice
Because of the nature of wireless communications, transmission and
reception of data can never be guaranteed. Data may be delayed,
corrupted (i.e., have errors) or be totally lost. Although significant
delays or losses of data are rare when wireless devices such as the
Sierra Wireless modem are used in a normal manner with a well-
constructed network, the Sierra Wireless modem should not be used
in situations where failure to transmit or receive data could result in
damage of any kind to the user or any other party, including but not
limited to personal injury, death, or loss of property. Sierra Wireless
and its affiliates accept no responsibility for damages of any kind
resulting from delays or errors in data transmitted or received using
the Sierra Wireless modem, or for failure of the Sierra Wireless
modem to transmit or receive such data.
Safety and hazards
Do not operate your MC57xx/MC8xxx modem:
•
In areas where blasting is in progress
•
Where explosive atmospheres may be present including
refuelling points, fuel depots, and chemical plants
•
Near medical equipment, life support equipment, or any
equipment which may be susceptible to any form of radio inter-
ference. In such areas, the MC57xx/MC8xxx modem MUST BE
POWERED OFF. Otherwise, the MC57xx/MC8xxx modem can
transmit signals that could interfere with this equipment.
In an aircraft, the MC57xx/MC8xxx modem MUST BE POWERED
OFF. Otherwise, the MC57xx/MC8xxx modem can transmit signals
that could interfere with various onboard systems and may be
dangerous to the operation of the aircraft or disrupt the cellular
network. Use of a cellular phone in an aircraft is illegal in some
jurisdictions. Failure to observe this instruction may lead to
suspension or denial of cellular telephone services to the offender, or
legal action or both.
Some airlines may permit the use of cellular phones while the aircraft
is on the ground and the door is open. The MC57xx/MC8xxx modem
may be used normally at this time.
