UL Safety Notices (Etats-Unis)
Required for UL 1459 covering telecommunications (telephone) equipment intended to be electrically
connected to a telecommunication network that has an operating voltage to ground that does not exceed

When using the PC portable modem, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the
risk of fire, electric shock, and injury to persons, including the following:
• Do not use the PC portable near water, for example, near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink
or laundry tub, in a wet basement or near a swimming pool.
• Do not use the PC portable during an electrical storm. There may be a remote risk of electric
shock from lightning.
• Do not use the PC portable in the vicinity of a gas leak.
Required for UL 1642 covering primary (nonrechargeable) and secondary (rechargeable) lithium bat-
teries for use as power sources in products. These batteries contain metallic lithium, or a lithium alloy,
or a lithium ion, and may consist of a single electrochemical cell or two or more cells connected in
series, parallel, or both, that convert chemical energy into electrical energy by an irreversible or revers-
ible chemical reaction.
• Do not dispose the PC portable battery pack in a fire, as they may explode. Check with local
codes for possible special disposal instructions to reduce the risk of injury to persons due to
fire or explosion.
• Do not use power adapters or batteries from other devices to reduce the risk of injury to
persons due to fire or explosion. Use only UL certified power adapters or batteries supplied by
the manufacturer or authorized retailers.
