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.
You are cautioned that changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void your authority to operate the equipment. This
transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter.
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.
RF exposure warning
The equipment complies with FCC RF exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled
environment.
The antenna(s) used for this transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction
with any other antenna or transmitter.
RF exposure information (SAR)
This Mobile Computer meets the government's requirements for exposure to radio waves.
This Mobile Computer 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 U.S. Government.
The exposure standard for wireless Mobile Computers employs a unit of measurement known
as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg.
Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC with the
Mobile Computer transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands.
Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of
IMPORTANT NOTICES

the Mobile Computer while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because
the Mobile Computer is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the
poser required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station
antenna, the lower the power output.
The highest SAR value for US model Mobile Computers as reported to the FCC when tested
for use at the body, as described in this user guide, is 0.965 W/kg. The highest SAR value for
US model Mobile Computers as reported to the FCC when tested for use at the head, as
described in this user guide, is 0.216 W/kg.

The main and backup batteries may not be charged to full for shipment. When you first
receive the package, you will need to charge the main battery to full before using the
mobile computer.
Because the internal backup battery is constantly charged from the main battery, the
initial charging requires inserting the battery pack to the mobile computer and then
connecting the mobile computer for direct charging. This will have both the main and
backup batteries charged at the same time.
