IMPORTANT SAFETY
INFORMATION
Please read these safety instructions and the operation instructions
provided in this manual before operating the iPAQ BlackBerry
W1000 Handheld or its cradle. Retain these instructions for future
use.
Remember to follow any special regulations governing the use of
the iPAQ BlackBerry W1000 Handheld and always switch it off in
areas where radio devices are forbidden, or when it may cause
interference or danger. Any safety laws and regulations pertaining
to the use of cell phones and two-way radios will likely apply to
your use of the handheld. We encourage you to follow such laws
and regulations at all times. In particular, please observe all
restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots (fuel
storage and distribution areas), chemical plants, where blasting
operations are in progress or in any other area in which restrictions
on radio transmissions are imposed. In addition, the iPAQ
BlackBerry W1000 Handheld should not be used in locations that
may be hazardous including, without limitation, locations in which
hazardous or combustible gases may be present.
The iPAQ BlackBerry W1000 Handheld is not an FAA-approved
electronic device for use on aircraft. Switch off the handheld when
in an aircraft. The effect of the use of the handheld in an aircraft is
unknown. Such use may affect aircraft instrumentation,
communication and performance, may disrupt the network, and
may be illegal.
Operation of any radio transmitting equipment, including the
handheld, may interfere with the functionality of inadequately
protected medical devices, including pacemakers. Consult a
physician or the manufacturer of the medical device if you have any

questions. Additionally, while most modern equipment is
adequately shielded from radio signals such that your handheld
will not interfere with the operation of such equipment, certain
electronic equipment, including automotive systems, may not be
shielded against the radio signals from your handheld. You should
check with the manufacturer of your motor vehicle or the
manufacturer’s representative to determine whether the use of the
handheld will present any safety issues.
Avoid using the handheld in any environment requiring your full
attention, such as when driving a vehicle. If you need to use your
handheld while driving, have a passenger in the vehicle use the
handheld for you, or find a safe location to halt your vehicle prior to
using the handheld. Do not use the cradle as a means of storing your
handheld while in a vehicle.
Do not place the iPAQ BlackBerry W1000 Handheld or its cradle on
any unstable surface, such as a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table.
It may fall, causing serious injury to a child or adult, and serious
damage to the handheld.
Use only those battery types specified in this User’s Guide. The use
of any other may disable the handheld and may be dangerous.
Discard the handheld properly. As the unit contains a lithium ion
cell, neither the handheld nor the lithium ion cell (nor the AA
battery) should be disposed of in fire. Dispose of the handheld
containing the lithium ion cell in accordance with the laws and
regulations in your area governing disposal of such cell types.
Similarly, dispose of AA batteries in a responsible manner. Contact
WARNING Do not use any cradle or any other accessory or attachment
that is not manufactured by RIM or supplied by Compaq or
an authorized Compaq accessories supplier. Use of any
accessory or attachment that is not supplied or approved
for use by Compaq in conjunction with the handheld is not
permitted as it may cause hazards.

Compaq if you have any questions concerning disposal of the
handheld, the lithium ion cell, or the AA battery.
The handheld should be operated only from the type of power
source indicated on the marking label. Refer to the operating
instructions starting on page 21 for more information on the battery
and power supply. Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or
integral convenience receptacles as this may result in a risk of fire or
electric shock.
Never push objects of any kind into the iPAQ BlackBerry W1000
Handheld through openings as they may short-out parts and this
may result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind
on the handheld or its cradle. Unplug the cradle from the wall
before cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners.
Unplug the cradle from the wall and refer the handheld and cradle
for service to qualified personnel if:
• the power supply cord or plug is damaged
WARNING To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose
the handheld, cradle, or the adapter to rain or moisture.
WARNING To reduce risk of fire or burns, do not disassemble, crush,
puncture, short external contacts, or dispose of in fire or
water. Replace only with the appropriate Compaq spare.
WARNING To reduce the risk of electrical shock, fire or damage to the
equipment, do not use converter kits sold for appliances to
power the cradle.
CAUTION Ensure that the electrical outlet you plug the AC Adapter
into is easily accessible to you at all times. When you want
to disconnect power from the cradle, unplug the AC Adapter
from the electrical outlet.

• liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the handheld
or cradle
• objects have fallen into the handheld or cradle
• the handheld or cradle has been exposed to rain or water
• the handheld or cradle has been dropped or damaged in any
way
• the handheld or cradle does not operate normally by following
the instructions contained in this manual
• the handheld or cradle exhibits a distinct change in
performance.
Adjust only those controls that are covered in this manual. An
improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage and
will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore
the handheld or cradle to its normal operation.
Unplug the cradle before cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol
cleaners. Rather, use a damp cloth to clean the unit.
Failure to observe all these instructions will void the Limited
Warranty, and may lead to suspension or denial of services to the
offender, or legal action, or both.
