As with any electronic device, the Express Card Modem must be handled
with care to ensure reliable operation. Follow these guidelines in using
and storing the Express Card Modem:
ⅷ The Express Card Modem should fit easily into your Express Card or
PC Card slot (with a PC Card Adapter). Forcing the Express Card
Modem into a slot may damage the connector pins.
ⅷ Protect the Express Card Modem from liquids, dust, and excessive heat.
ⅷ When not installed in your computer, store the Express Card Modem in
a safe place.
ⅷ Remove the Express Card Modem before storing or transporting your
computer.
ⅷ When inserting or removing the Express Card Modem, always grip it by
the sides rather than the end, as this prevents damage to the Express
Card Modem antenna and connector.
ⅷ Do not use the Express Card Modem with a handheld computer; it is
designed only for notebook or desktop computers running Windows
Vista, Windows XP, or Mac OS X.
ⅷ Do not handle or operate the Express Card Modem while driving or

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 Sprint
Mobile Broadband Express Card are used in a normal manner with a
wellconstructed network, they 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. SPRINT SPECTRUM L.P. accepts no
responsibility for damages of any kind resulting from delays or errors in
data transmitted or received using the Sprint Mobile Broadband Express
transmit or receive such data.
Safety and Hazards
Do not operate the Sprint Mobile Broadband Express Card in areas
where blasting is in progress, where explosive atmospheres may be
present, near medical equipment, life support equipment, or any
equipment which may be susceptible to any form of radio interference. In
such areas, the Sprint Mobile Broadband Express Card MUST BE
POWERED OFF. It can transmit signals that could interfere with this
equipment.
Do not operate the Sprint Mobile Broadband Express Card in any aircraft,
whether the aircraft is on the ground or in flight. In aircraft, the Sprint
Mobile Broadband Express Card MUST BE POWERED OFF. When
operating, it can transmit signals that could interfere with various onboard
systems.
