2 2: Care and Maintenance of
Your PC3320 card
As with any electronic device, the PC3320 card must be handled with care to
ensure reliable operation. Follow these guidelines in using and storing the
PC3320 card:
•
Do not apply adhesive labels to the PC3320 card. This may cause the
PC3320 card to become jammed inside the card slot.
•
Optimal signal strength is usually obtained when the antenna is perpendicular
to the modem. The antenna should bend easily at the hinge. Do not forcefully
bend the antenna.
•
When storing or transporting your PC in a case (such as a notebook case),
remove the PC3320 card antenna and store it in a compartment where it
cannot be crushed or broken.
•
The PC3320 card should fit easily into your PC Card slot. Forcing the PC3320
card into a slot may damage connector pins.
•
Protect the card from liquids, dust, and excessive heat.
•
When not installed in your computer, store the PC3320 card in a safe place.
