Important Notice

Due to the nature of wireless communications, transmission and reception of data can never be
guaranteed. Data may be delayed, corrupted (i.e., have errors) or be totally lost. Although significant
delays or losses of data are rare when wireless devices such as the Overdrive 3G/4G Mobile Hotspot
are used in a normal manner with a well-constructed network, the device should not be used in
situations where failure to transmit or receive data could result in damage of any kind to the user or
any other party, including but not limited to personal injury, death, or loss of property. Sierra Wireless
accepts no responsibility for damages of any kind resulting from delays or errors in data transmitted
or received using the device, or for failure of the device to transmit or receive such data.

Safety and Hazards

In areas where blasting is in progress

Where explosive atmospheres may be present

Near medical equipment

Near life support equipment, or any equipment that may be susceptible to any form of radio
interference.

In such areas, your device MUST BE POWERED OFF. The device can transmit signals that could
interfere with this equipment.

Do not operate the device in any aircraft, whether the aircraft is on the ground or in flight. In aircraft, the
device MUST BE POWERED OFF. When operating, the device can transmit signals that could interfere
with various onboard systems.

Note:

Some airlines may permit the use of cellular phones while the aircraft is on the ground and the door
is open. The device may be used at this time.

The driver or operator of any vehicle should not operate the device 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 offence.
