7: Regulatory and Safety Information
Notice
Because of the nature of wireless communications, transmission and
reception of data can never be guaranteed. Data may be delayed,
corrupted (that is, have errors), or be totally lost. Although significant
delays or losses of data are rare when wireless devices such as the
AirCard 782S Mobile Hotspot are used in a normal manner with a well-
constructed network, the AirCard 782S Mobile Hotspot 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. NETGEAR and its
affiliates accept no responsibility for damages of any kind resulting from
delays or errors in data transmitted or received using the AirCard 782S
Mobile Hotspot, or for failure of the AirCard 782S Mobile Hotspot to
transmit or receive such data.
Safety and Hazards
The mobile hotspot
MUST BE POWERED OFF
in all areas that may be
susceptible to radio interference, in particular:
•
Prohibited areas
Obey all signs and notices and follow all rules and regulations. Power
off the mobile hotspot when instructed to do so or when you suspect
that it may cause interference or danger.
•
In areas where blasting is in progress
•
Where explosive atmospheres may be present
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are not always clearly
marked. Such areas include gas stations, fuel depots, chemical transfer
or storage facilities, areas where blasting is in progress, areas where
the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust, or metal
powders, and any other area where you would normally be advised to
turn off your cellular phone or vehicle engine.
•
Near medical or life-support equipment
Medical equipment may be susceptible to any form of radio interfer-
ence. In such areas the mobile hotspot can transmit signals that could
interfere with this equipment.
•
On board aircraft
In addition to Federal Aviation Authority (FAA) requirements, many
airline regulations state that you must suspend wireless operations
before boarding an aircraft. The mobile hotspot is capable of transmit-
ting signals that could interfere with various onboard systems and
controls.
