Regulatory Notices
This device complies with Parts 15, 22, and 24 of the FCC rules. This PC card has been tested
with the typical laptop computer with the side loading PCMCIA bay. This PC card must not be co-
location or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. Use of this device in any
other configuration may exceed the FCC RF Exposure compliance limit. Operation of this device
is subject to the following two conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmful interference, and
2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause
undesirable operations.
AirPrime, Inc guidelines stipulate that the antenna should be more than 1.5 cm (0.60”) from by-

determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver
is connected
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help
WARNING- This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class B limits for radio noise emissions
from digital apparatus as set out in the interference causing equipment standard entitled “Digital
Apparatus,” ICES-003 of the Department of Communications.
Cet appareil numerique respecte les limites de bruits radioelectriques applicables aux appareils
numeriques de Classe B prescrites dans la norme sur le materiel brouilleur. “Appareils

----------------------------------
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 totally be lost. Although
significant delays or losses of data are rare when wireless devices such as the PC Card-Model
PC3220 CDMA modem are used in a normal manner with a well constructed network, they
should not be used in situations where failure to transmit or receive data could result in damage
of any kind to the user or another party, including but not limited to personal injury, death or loss
of personal property. No responsibility for damages of any kind resulting from delays or errors in
data transmitted or received using the PC Card-Model PC3220 CDMA modem, or for failure of
the PC Card-Model PC3220 to transmit or receive such data.
Safety and Hazards
[File Names: explosive.jpg; hospital.jpg; plane.jpg; car.jpg]
Do not operate the PC Card-Model PC3220 in areas where blasting is in progress, where
explosive atmospheres may be present, near medical equipment, life support equipment, or any
equipment which may be susceptible to any form of radio interference. In such areas the PC
Card-Model PC3220 MUST BE POWERED OFF. It can transmit signals that could interfere with
this equipment.
Do not operate the PC Card- Model PC3220 in any aircraft whether the aircraft is on the ground
or in flight. In aircraft, the PC Card- Model PC3220 MUST BE POWERED OFF. When operating
it can transmit signals that could interfere with various onboard systems.
The driver or operator of any vehicle should not operate the PC Card- Model PC3220 while in
control of a vehicle. Doing so will detract from the driver or operator’s control and operation of that
vehicle. In some jurisdictions, operating such communications devices while in control of a
vehicle is an offense.
