FOR USA
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 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.
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.
FOR CANADA
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class B limits for radio noise emissions from
digital apparatus as set out in the interference-causing equipment standard entitled
"Digital Apparatus," ICES-003 of Industry Canada.
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.

IMPORTANT NOTICES

FOR PRODUCT WITH LASER
CAUTION
This laser component emits FDA / IEC Class 2 laser light at the exit port. Do not
stare into beam.
SPECIFIC ABSORPTION RATE (SAR) INFORMATION
This mobile computer model CP30 has been designed to comply with applicable safety
requirements for exposure to radio waves. These requirements are based on scientific
guidelines that include safety margins designed to assure the safety of all persons,
regardless of age and health. The radio wave exposure guidelines employ a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. Tests for SAR are
conducted using standardized methods with the CP30 transmitting at its highest certified
power level in all used frequency bands. While there may be differences between the SAR
levels of various models, they are all designed to meet the relevant guidelines for
exposure to radio waves. SAR data information for residents in countries that have
adopted the SAR limit recommended by the International Commission of Non-Ionizing
Radiation Protection (ICNIRP), which is 2 W/kg averaged over ten (10) gram of tissue
(for example European Union ):
The highest SAR value for this model when tested by CIPHERLAB for use at the body
position is 1.02 W/kg (10g).
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
RISK OF EXPLOSION IF BATTERY IS REPLACED BY AN INCORRECT TYPE.
DISPOSE OF USED BATTERIES ACCORDING TO THE INSTRUCTIONS.
The use of any batteries or charging devices, which are not originally sold or
manufactured by CipherLab, will void your warranty and may cause damage to
human body or the product itself.
DO NOT disassemble, incinerate or short circuit the battery.
DO NOT expose the scanner or the battery to any flammable sources.
For green-environment issue, it's important that batteries should be recycled in a
proper way.
Under no circumstances, internal components are self-serviceable.
The charging and communication cradle uses an AC power adaptor. A socket outlet
shall be installed near the equipment and shall be easily accessible. Make sure there
is stable power supply for the mobile computer or its peripherals to operate properly.
CARE & MAINTENANCE
This mobile computer is intended for industrial use. The mobile computer is rated IP
42, however, it may do damage to the mobile computer when being exposed to
extreme temperatures or soaked wet.
When the body of the mobile computer gets dirty, use a clean and wet cloth to wipe
off the dust. DO NOT use/mix any bleach or cleaner. Always keep the LCD dry.

For a liquid crystal display (LCD) or touch screen, use a clean, non-abrasive, lint-free
cloth to wipe dust off the screen. DO NOT use any pointed or sharp object to move
against the surface.
If you want to put away the mobile computer for a period of time, download the
collected data to a host computer, and then take out the battery pack. Store the
mobile computer and battery pack separately.
If you shall find the mobile computer malfunctioning, write down the specific scenario
and consult your local sales representative.
