Even if you erase the data or initialize the hard disk using normal Windows commands, the data can be read with some special software. Use the hard disk data erase utility to erase the data completely. Note that transferring of the ownership without uninstalling the commercial software will be a violation of the softwares license agreement. The hard disk data erase utility erases data using an overwriting method, but there is a possibility that due to mal-

functions or other operational errors, data may not be completely erased. There are also specialized devices that may be able to read data that has been erased using this method. If you need to erase highly condential data, we recommend that you contact a company that specializes in this process.

Supplementary Instructions for HSDPA/UTMS Modem Personal Computer Model No. CF-19 Series Contents Precautions ...............................................................................2 Names and Functions of Parts .................................................4 1 Precautions Safety Precautions The following safety precautions must be observed during all phases of the operation, usage, service or repair of any Personal Computer or Handheld Computer incorporating WWAN. Manufacturers of the cellular terminal are advised to convey the following safety information to users and operating person-

nel and to incorporate these guidelines into all manuals supplied with the product. Failure to comply with these precautions violates safety standards of design, manufacture and intended use of the prod-

uct. Panasonic assumes no liability for customer failure to comply with these precautions. When in a hospital or other health care facility, observe the restrictions on the use of mobiles. Switch Personal Computer or Handheld Computer incorporating WWAN off, if instructed to do so by the guidelines posted in sensitive areas. Medical equipment may be sensitive to RF energy. The operation of cardiac pacemakers, other implanted medical equipment and hearing aids can be affected by interference from Personal Computer or Handheld Computer in-

corporating WWAN placed close to the device. If in doubt about potential danger, contact the physician or the manufacturer of the device to verify that the equipment is properly shielded. Pacemaker patients are advised to keep their Personal Computer or Handheld Computer incorporating WWAN away from the pacemaker, while it is on. Switch off Personal Computer or Handheld Computer incorporating WWAN before board-

ing an aircraft. Make sure it cannot be switched on inadvertently. The operation of wireless appliances in an aircraft is forbidden to prevent interference with communications systems. Failure to observe these instructions may lead to the suspension or denial of cellular ser-

vices to the offender, legal action, or both. Do not operate Personal Computer or Handheld Computer incorporating WWAN in the presence of ammable gases or fumes. Switch off the cellular terminal when you are near petrol stations, fuel depots, chemical plants or where blasting operations are in progress. Operation of any elec-

trical equipment in potentially explosive atmospheres can constitute a safety hazard. Your Personal Computer or Handheld Computer incorporating WWAN receives and trans-

mits radio frequency energy while switched on. Remember that interference can occur if it is used close to TV sets, radios, computers or inadequately shielded equipment. Follow any special regulations and always switch off Personal Computer or Handheld Computer incor-

porating WWAN wherever forbidden, or when you suspect that it may cause interference or danger. Road safety comes rst! Do not use a Personal Computer or Handheld Computer incorporating WWAN while driving a vehicle. Do not place the computer with WWAN in an area where it could cause personal injury to the driver or passengers. It is recommended to stow the unit in the boot or secure stowage area while driving.

Air bags in ate with great force and if the computer with WWAN is placed in the air bag deploy-

ment area may be propelled with great force and cause serious injury to occupants of the vehicle. IMPORTANT!

Personal Computer or Handheld Computer incorporating WWAN operate using radio sig-

nals and cellular networks cannot be guaranteed to connect in all conditions. Therefore, you should never rely solely upon any wireless device for essential communications, for example emergency calls. Remember, in order to make or receive calls, Personal Computer or Handheld Computer in-

corporating WWAN must be switched on and in a service area with adequate cellular signal strength. Some networks do not allow for emergency calls if certain network services or phone features are in use (e.g. lock functions, xed dialing etc.). You may need to deacti-

vate those features before you can make an emergency call. 2 Some networks require that a valid SIM card be properly inserted in Personal Computer or Handheld Computer incorporating WWAN. 27-E-1-1 For U.S.A.
