Sierra Wireless ACRD2 Users Manual

AirPath 300 for Visor User Guide Preface

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, Inc., accepts 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.

(3 cm (1.2") from hands, wrists, feet, and ankles) when the
modem is transmitting. The device and its antenna(s) must
not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other
antenna or transmitter.

Do not operate the Sierra Wireless modem in areas where blasting is in
progress, where explosive atmospheres may be present, near medical
equipment, near life support equipment, or any equipment which may be
susceptible to any form of radio interference. In such areas, the Sierra
Wireless modem MUST BE TURNED OFF. The Sierra Wireless modem
can transmit signals that could interfere with this equipment.

Do not operate the Sierra Wireless modem in any aircraft, whether the
aircraft is on the ground or in flight. In aircraft, the Sierra Wireless modem
