Wireless communications
IMPORTANT Notice
Due to the transmission and reception properties of wireless communications, data can occasionally 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 may adversely affect communications.
Variations in radio signal strength are referred to as fading. Fading is caused by several different factors
including signal reflection, the ionosphere, and interference from other radio channels.
Verizon 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 USB760 Modem, or failure of the USB760 Modem to
transmit or receive such data.
Safety hazards
Do not operate the USB760 Modem in an environment that may be susceptible to radio interference
resulting in danger specifically;
Areas where prohibited by the law
o
Follow any special rules and regulations and obey all signs and notices. Always turn off the host
device and remove the modem from the USB port when instructed to do so, or when you
suspect that it may cause interference or danger.
Where explosive atmospheres may be present
o
o
o
Do not operate your modem in any area where a potentially explosive atmosphere may exist.
Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death. Be
aware and comply with all signs and instructions.
Users are advised not to operate the modem while at a refueling point or service station. Users
are reminded to observe restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots (fuel storage
and distribution areas), chemical plants or where blasting operations are in progress.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often but not always clearly marked. Potential
locations can include gas stations, below deck on boats, chemical transfer or storage facilities,
vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane), areas where the air contains
chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust or metal powders, and any other area where you
would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.
Near Medical and life support equipment
o
Do not operate your modem in any area where medical equipment, life support equipment, or
near any equipment that may be susceptible to any form of radio interference. In such areas, the
host communications device must be turned off. The modem may transmit signals that could
interfere with this equipment.
On an aircraft, either on the ground or airborne
o
In addition to FAA requirements, many airline regulations state that you must suspend wireless
operations before boarding an airplane. Please ensure that the host device is turned off and your
modem is removed from the USB port prior to boarding aircraft in order to comply with these
regulations. The modem can transmit signals that could interfere with various onboard systems
and controls.

While operating a vehicle
The driver or operator of any vehicle should not operate a wireless data device while in control of
o
a vehicle. Doing so will detract from the driver or operator's control and operation of that
vehicle. In some countries, operating such communications devices while in control of a vehicle
is an offense.

Troubleshooting
USB760 Modem
The following tips will help solve many common problems encountered while using the USB760
Modem:
•
•
Make sure you are using the USB760 Modem in the correct geographic region: a Mobile
Broadband and NationalAccess USB760 Modem in the US.
Ensure that the wireless network’s coverage extends to your current location.
When properly installed, the USB760 Modem is a highly reliable product. Most problems are caused
by one of these issues:
•
•
•
The wrong driver has been installed.
System resources required by the USB760 Modem are being used by other devices.
Network coverage is not available (either because you are outside the Mobile Broadband and
NationalAccess coverage area or because of an account or network problem).
My notebook does not reboot when the USB760 Modem is inserted. I experience an error or a blank
screen.
•
When this happens, simply remove the device and reboot the system.
The device contains internal memory which behaves like a CD-ROM. Some notebooks depending on
the system BIOS settings, may try to reboot from the CD-ROM before the Hard Drive. The machine
may present a black screen with a cursor or an error message about a non-bootable disk. This
behavior is similar when using any non bootable CD in your CD-ROM drive.
For issues related to VZAccess Manager consult the VZAccess Manager Software User Guide.

Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/television technician for help
This device complies with Part 15 of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Rules. Operation is
subject to the following two conditions:
1.
2.
This device may not cause harmful interference.
This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
WARNING: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO SERVICE THE WIRELESS COMMUNICATION DEVICE YOURSELF. SUCH
ACTION MAY VOID THE WARRANTY. THE USB760 MODEM IS FACTORY TUNED. NO CUSTOMER
CALIBRATION OR TUNING IS REQUIRED. CONTACT VERIZON WIRELESS TECHNICAL SUPPORT FOR
INFORMATION ABOUT SERVICING YOUR WIRELESS COMMUNICATION DEVICE.
FCC CAUTION: Any changes or modification not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user’s authority to operate this equipment.

This USB modem is approved for use in normal size notebook computers only (typically with 12” or larger
display screens). To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, this modem should not be used in
configurations that cannot maintain at least 11 mm (approximately 0.43” or 7/16”) from users and
bystanders; for example, in certain notebook and tablet computers and configurations where the USB
connectors are unable to provide or ensure the necessary separation is available between the modem
and its users to satisfy RF exposure compliance requirements.

RF Exposure/Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) Information
This product has been evaluated for SAR and meets the FCC Guidelines for exposure to radio waves.
FCC Equipment Authorization ID: PKRNVWMC760
Your wireless modem is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the
exposure limits for radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the
U.S. Government. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF
energy for the general population. The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by
independent scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The
standards include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age
and health.
The exposure standard for wireless devices including mobile USB Modems and wireless modems uses a unit
of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard
operating positions reviewed by the FCC with the device under test transmitting at its highest certified
power level in all frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the
actual SAR level of the USB Modem or modem while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is
because the USB Modem is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power
required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the
power output.
Before this device is made available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it
does not exceed the limit established by the government-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests
are performed in positions and locations (for example, at the ear or worn on the body) as required by the
FCC for each model.
THE FCC HAS GRANTED AN EQUIPMENT AUTHORIZATION FOR THIS WIRELESS MODEM WITH ALL REPORTED
SAR LEVELS EVALUATED AS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE FCC RF EXPOSURE GUIDELINES. THE HIGHEST SAR
VALUE FOR THIS MODEM WHEN TESTED FOR COMPLIANCE AGAINST FCC STANDARDS WAS 1.54 W/KG USER-
LAP POSITION.
