PREFACE

SAFETY NOTICES
FOR HAND-HELD PRODUCT WITH RF FUNCTIONS
CP50/CP50 G serial handheld equipment uses wireless radios that have been designed and
manufactured to meet safety requirements for limiting exposure to radio waves. When used
in accordance with the instructions set forth in this manual, the equipment has been
independently verified to not exceed the emission limits for safe exposure to radio
frequency (RF) energy as specified by EN50360 of EEC.
These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF
energy for the general population. The guidelines are based on standards that were
developed by independent scientific organization through periodic and thorough evaluation
of scientific studies. The standards include a substantial safety margin designed to assure
the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for all wireless devices employs a unit of measurement known as the
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR; the SAR limit set by CE is 2.0W/Kg.
For trunk, the SAR value of CP50/CP50 G serial handheld is:
EEC: MAX 0.335W/Kg (CP50 G), 0.013 (CP50)
FOR PRODUCT WITH LASER
CAUTION
This laser component emits FDA / IEC Class 2 laser light at the exit port. Do not
stare into beam.

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 adapter. 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 IP65,
however, the mobile computer can get damaged when being exposed to extreme
temperatures or soaked wet.
When the enclosure 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 touchscreen, use a clean, non-abrasive, lint-free
cloth to wipe dust off the screen. DO NOT contact the surface with any pointed or sharp
object.
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.
When the mobile computer resumes its work, it takes some time for the main and
backup batteries to become fully charged.
If you shall find the mobile computer malfunctioning, write down the specific scenario
and consult the sales representative in your local area.
