Wireless communications
Important Notice
Due to the transmission and reception properties of wireless communications, data can occasionally be lost or delayed. This can be due to the variation in radio signal strength that results from changes in the characteristics of the radio transmission path. Although data loss is rare, the environment where you operate the modem may adversely affect communications.
Variations in radio signal strength are referred to as fading. Fading is caused by several different factors including signal reflection, the ionosphere, and interference from other radio channels.
Verizon or its partners will not be held responsible for damages of any kind resulting from the delays or errors in data transmitted or received with the VL600 USB Modem, or failure of the VL600 USB Modem to transmit or receive such data.
Safety hazards
Do not operate the VL600 USB Modem in an environment that may be susceptible to radio interference resulting in danger, specifically;
Areas where prohibited by law
Follow any special rules and regulations and obey all signs and notices. Always turn off the host USB modem and remove the modem from the USB port when instructed to do so, or when you suspect that it may cause interference or danger.
Wireless communications
21
Wireless communications
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 fire 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
Wireless communications
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 liquefied 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 off your vehicle engine.
Near Medical and life support equipment
Do not operate your modem in any area where 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 USB modem must be turned off. The modem may transmit signals that could interfere with this equipment.
22
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 the host USB modem is turned off and 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 USB modem 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 USB modems while in control of a vehicle is an offense.
Safety Information
Only authorized LG or Verizon personnel should service the modem.
Do not disassemble or open, crush, bend or deform, puncture or shred.
Do not modify or remanufacture or attempt to insert foreign objects into the modem.
Avoid dropping the modem or exposing the modem to a liquid, high humidity (such as a bathroom), fire, explosion or other hazard. If the modem is dropped, especially on a hard surface, or is exposed to a liquid or comes into contact with a sharp object, such as animal teeth or nails, immediately take it to an authorized LG service center for inspection as the internal circuit boards of the modem may be harmed.
Wireless communications
23
Wireless communications
If you put your modem in a pocket or bag without covering the USB connector of the modem (plug pin), metallic articles (such as a coin, paperclip or pen) may short­circuit the modem. Always cover the USB connector with the protective cap when not in use.
Do not use or leave the modem under direct sunlight or inside a heated car by sunshine as it might cause the deterioration of modem’s characteristics or life cycle.
Wireless communications
Do not handle the modem with wet hands when plugging it in as it may cause an electric shock or seriously damage your modem.
Do not use harsh chemicals (such as alcohol, benzene, thinners, etc.) or detergents to clean your modem. This could cause a fire.

Regulatory Notices
This USB modem is approved for use in normal size laptop computers only (typically with 12” or larger display screens). To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, this modem should not be used in configurations that cannot maintain at least 5 mm (approximately 0.19”) from users and bystanders; for example, in certain laptop and tablet computers and configurations where the USB connectors on the host computer are unable to provide or ensure the necessary separation between the modem and its users or bystanders to satisfy RF exposure compliance requirements. The users should be advised to see details in the instruction manual.
RF Exposure/Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) Information
Regulatory Notices
This product has been evaluated for SAR and meets the FCC Guidelines for exposure to radio waves.
FCC Equipment Authorization ID:
Your wireless modem is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the exposure limits for radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S. Government. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The standards include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for USB modems including mobile USB Modems and wireless modems uses a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions reviewed by the FCC with the USB modem under test transmitting at its highest certified power level in all
28
BEJVL600
frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the USB Modem or modem while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the USB Modem is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output.
Before this USB modem is made available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the limit established by the government­adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions and locations (for example, at the ear or worn on the body) as required by the FCC for each model.
THE FCC HAS GRANTED AN EQUIPMENT AUTHORIZATION FOR THIS WIRELESS MODEM WITH ALL REPORTED SAR LEVELS EVALUATED AS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE FCC RF EXPOSURE GUIDELINES. THE HIGHEST SAR VALUE FOR THIS MODEM WHEN TESTED FOR COMPLIANCE AGAINST FCC STANDARDS WAS 1.34 W/KG USER-LAP POSITION.
