63Wireless CommunicationsIMPORTANT Due to the transmission and reception properties of wireless communications, data occasionally can 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 might adversely aect communications.Variations in radio signal strength are referred to as fading. Fading is caused by several dierent factors including signal reection, the ionosphere, and interference from other radio channels. Novatel Wireless 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 MiFi4510L device, or failure of the MiFi4510L device to transmit or receive such data.Limited Warranty and LiabilityNovatel Wireless, Inc. warrants for the 12-month period immediately following receipt of the Product by Purchaser that the Product will be free from defects in material and workmanship under normal use.
