Battery

Note: This section only applies to AirCard USB modems.
We recommend that you fully charge the battery for three
hours before using it for the first time.
Use only Sierra Wireless AirCard USB modem batteries
intended for use with your device. Using other batteries and
chargers could be dangerous.
Avoid dropping the modem or battery. If you do drop it,
especially on a hard surface, and you suspect damage, take it
to a service center for inspection.
If the battery leaks or emits an odor, immediately remove it
from the proximity of any exposed flame. The leaking
electrode could ignite and cause a fire or explosion.
Dispose of used batteries according to local regulations.
Supervise children when they use batteries.
Do not:
• let the metal contacts on the battery touch another metal
object. Doing so could short circuit and damage the
battery.
• disassemble, open, crush, bend, deform, puncture, or
shred the battery.
• modify or remanufacture the battery.
• attempt to insert foreign objects into the battery.
• immerse or expose the battery to water or other liquids.
• expose the battery to fire, explosions, or other hazards.
Warning: Improper battery use may result in a fire,
explosion, or other hazard.
