Safety Hazards
Do not operate your MiFi device in an environment that may be susceptible to radio interference
resulting in danger, specically:
Areas where prohibited by the law
Follow any special rules and regulations and obey all signs and notices. Always turn o your MiFi
device (or the host device and remove the modem from the USB port) when instructed to do so, or
when you suspect that it may cause interference or danger.
Where explosive atmospheres may be present
Do not operate your modem in any area where a potentially explosive atmosphere may exist. Sparks
in such areas could cause an explosion or re resulting in bodily injury or even death. Be aware and
comply with all signs and instructions.
Users are advised not to operate the modem while at a refueling point or service station. Users are
reminded to observe restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots (fuel storage and
distribution areas), chemical plants or where blasting operations are in progress.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often but not always clearly marked. Potential
locations can include gas stations, below deck on boats, chemical transfer or storage facilities,
vehicles using liqueed petroleum gas (such as propane or butane), 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 o your vehicle engine.
Near medical and life support equipment
Do not operate your device around medical equipment, life support equipment, or near any
equipment that may be susceptible to any form of radio interference. In such areas, the host
communications device must be turned o. The device may transmit signals that could interfere
with this equipment.
On an aircraft, either on the ground or airborne
In addition to FAA requirements, many airline regulations state that you must suspend wireless
operations before boarding an airplane. Please ensure that your MiFi device (or the host device) is
turned o and if in USB Mode, your modem is removed from the USB port prior to boarding aircraft
in order to comply with these regulations. The modem can transmit signals that could interfere with
various onboard systems and controls.
While operating a vehicle
The driver or operator of any vehicle should not operate a wireless data device while in control of a
vehicle. Doing so will detract from the driver or operator’s control and operation of that vehicle. In
some countries, operating such communications devices while in control of a vehicle is an oense.
