Regulatory Compliance Statements

Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital

device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable

protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates,

uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with

the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no

guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause

harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the

equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference through one of the

following:

Relocate the receiving antenna.●

Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.●

Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit that is different from the receiver.●

Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/television technician for help.●

FCC Caution:

Any changes or modications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance

could void the user’s authority to operate this equipment.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two

conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept

any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. This

device and its antenna(s) must not cohabitate or operate in conjunction with any other antenna

or transmitter.

About This Manual

FCC Radiation Exposure Statement

This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled

environment. End users must follow the specic operating instructions for satisfying RF exposure

compliance. Please follow the operation instructions in this manual to main compliant with FCC

RF exposure compliance requirments. This RFID Handheld Terminal meets FCC RF exposure

guidelines when used in handheld or desktop operation.

RoHS Statement

This device conforms to RoHS (Reduction of Hazardous Substances) European Union

regulations that set maximum concentration limits on hazardous materials used in electrical and

electronic equipment.

Laser Information

The AWID HH-6600 series is certied in the U.S. to conform to the requirements of DHHS/CDRH

21CFR Subchapter J, and to the requirements of IEC 825-1. Class II and Class 2 products are

not considered to be hazardous. The HH-6600 series contains an internal Visible Laser Diode

(VLD) whose emissions do not exceed the maximum limits as set forth in the above regulations.

The scanner is designed so that there is no human access to harmful laser light during normal

operation, user maintenance or during prescribed service operations.

The laser safety warning label required by the DHHS/IEC for the HH-6600 series’s optional laser

scanner module is located on the memory compartment cover, on the back of the HH-6600.

CAUTION!

Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those

specified herein may result in hazardous laser light. Use of optical instruments

with the scanner will increase eye hazard. Optical instruments include binoculars,

microscopes and magnifying glasses. This does not include eye glasses worn by

the user.

Notices

The AWID HH-6600 is equipped with a Lithium-Ion Battery Pack and a Backup Battery. However,

the HH-6600 may not start without an external power source due to battery discharge after

extended storage periods To charge the battery to full capacity, connect the HH-6600 to an

external power source with the USB Charging Cable or the AWID HH-6600 Cradle. Initially

charge the HH-6600 for at least 16 hours.

The Backup Battery will receive power from an external power source, or through the main

battery (But, only if the main battery has adequate power). In order to prevent data loss due

to Backup Battery failure, connect the HH-6600 to the main Battery Pack or an external power

source.

NOTE: Turn the HH-6600 Backup Battery Switch to the ON position before initial use.

Battery Charge Notice

It is important to consider the environment temperature when charging the Lithium-Ion Battery

Pack. Charging is most efficient at room temperature or in a slightly cooler environment. It is

essential that batteries are charged within the temperature ranges of 32º F - 104ºF (0°C - 40°C).

Charging batteries outside of the specied temperature range could damage the batteries and

shorten their charging life cycle.

Storage and Safety Notice

Although charged Lithium-Ion batteries may be left unused for several months, their capacity

may deplete due to buildup of internal resistance. In this case they will require recharging.

Lithium-Ion batteries may store at temperatures between -4Fº - 140Fº (-20°C to 60°C). But the

batteries may deplete more rapidly at the warmer end of this range. It is recommended to store

batteries at room temperature.

IMPORTANT NOTE

FCC Radiation Exposure Statement: This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure

limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated

with a minimum distance of 1.5cm between the radiator and the user's body.
