IMPORTANT NOTICES

FOR HAND-HELD PRODUCT WITH RF FUNCTIONS
The 1662/1664 unit (FCC ID: Q3N-1662/1664) complies with FCC radiation exposure
limits set forth for uncontrolled environment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF)
Exposure Guidelines in Supplement C to OET65. The unit has very low level of RF energy
that it is deemed to comply without testing of specific absorption ratio (SAR).
The 3610 unit (FCC ID: Q3N-3610) complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth
for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with
minimum distance 20 cm between the radiator & body. It only operated in hand-held
used. If only transfer data to the host cordless, please keep the minimum distance 20 cm
between machine & body.
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
