Battery Safety and Precautions
- For better performance and longer battery life, it is recommended that you charge the battery fully before
using the tablet for the first time.
- The optimum performance of a new battery is typically achieved after two or three complete charge
cycles. Note: Keep in mind that continuous overcharging will affect long term battery life.
- While charging, keep the tablet out the reach of children.
- Store the battery in a cool and dry place away from direct sunlight and water.
- Do not expose batteries to extreme temperatures (below -8°C (18°F) or above 43°C (110°F).
- Immediately stop using the battery if it produces an odor, cracks and leaks, overheats, distorts or has any
other type of physical damage.
- Avoid using the charger near or around liquids. If the charger comes in contact with water or any liquids,
immediately unplug it from the outlet to reduce the risk of overheating, charger malfunction, electric shock
or fire.

7
Warning: Please be careful with the disposal of used batteries. Do not throw away batteries with daily
waste. Please follow local environmental laws and guidelines for proper waste disposal.
Cleaning and Maintenance
- Avoid using the tablet and accessories in excessively moist areas to avoid malfunction.
- Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the tablet, battery and charger.
- Do not use alcohol, thinner, benzene or any other solvent to clean the tablet.
FCC Regulations
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 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 radiated 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

8
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by
one or more of the following measures:
-Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
-Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
-Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
-Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the
user‘s authority to operate the equipment.
RF Exposure Information (SAR)
This device is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio
frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the United States.
During SAR testing, this device was set to transmit at its highest certified power level in all tested
frequency bands, and placed in positions that simulate RF exposure in usage against the head with no
separation, and near the body with no separation. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified
power level, the actual SAR level of the device while operating can be well below the maximum

9
value. This is because the device 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.
The exposure standard for wireless devices employing a unit of measurement is known as the Specific
Absorption Rate, or SAR.
The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg.
This device is complied with SAR for general population /uncontrolled exposure limits inANSI/IEEE
C95.1-1992 and had been tested in accordance with the measurement methods and procedures specified
in IEEE1528. This device has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines when tested with
the device directly contacted to the body.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model device with all reported SAR levels
evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this model device is
on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid after
searching on FCC ID: YHLBLUTBG7.
For this device, the highest reported SAR value for usage against the head is 0.89 W/kg, for usage near
the body is 1.18 W/kg.
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various devices and at various positions, they
all meet the government requirements.

Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts de
licence. L'exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes:
(1) l'appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et
(2) l'utilisateur de l'appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est
susceptible d'en
This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.
Cet appareil numérique de la classe B est conforme àla norme NMB-003 du Canada.
