ther slated for further use or dismantled and recycled in an environmentally
sound manner. The return is handled through your dealer.

Information on the return of electrical and electronic waste
in EU countries according to Directive 2002/96/EC, and its im-
plementation in respective national regulations
a) Reason and Purpose of Separate Collection
Users of electrical and electronic equipment are required to dispose of used devices sepa-
rately. Electrical and electronic equipment must not be disposed of together with unsorted
municipal solid waste (domestic refuse), as it contains a range of dangerous elements that
cause problems for waste management. Separate collection from regular municipal waste
is a prerequisite for the special treatment and appropriate recycling of electrical and elec-
tronic waste.This is essential, as many components of electrical and electronic devices are
damaging to the environment if they are not disposed of professionally. Disposing of the
devices along with unsorted municipal waste can cause harmful substances to enter the
waste flow. The consequence would be a considerable burden on the environment.
b) Significance the ‘Crossed-Out Wheelie Bin’
The crossed-out wheelie bin is the symbol for separate collection.
Electrical and electronic equipment marked with this symbol must not be
disposed of to-gether with municipal sorted waste (domestic refuse). Such
items can be handed in free of charge at public collection points.
c) Reuse, Recycling and Recovery
Electrical and electronic waste contains valuable raw materials such as iron, aluminum
and copper. These components must be treated selectively. A separate collection and a
selec-tive treatment are the basis for environmentally-friendly disposal and protection of
human health.
According to the particular terms, manufacturers are obligated to assume the costs associ-
ated with disposing of these devices as well as other obligations. This is to promote the
chief objectives of reuse and recycling. For this to be possible, consumers must dispose of
used devices that are no longer needed at communal collection points. Actively using these
return and collection systems contributes to the reuse, recycling and recovery of electrical
and electronic equipment and protects the environment.
d) Weight
Information on the weight of the acquired product can be found on the item list as well as
on the packaging.

Important Safety Information
Although the notebook is highly robust, it is not indestructible. To prevent damage from
occurring, please pay attention to the following:
• Avoid exposing the notebook to strong shocks or vibrations.
• Keep it away from intense heat (radiators, direct sunlight).
• Protect the notebook from electromagnetic interference. This will also prevent data
loss.
• Don’t expose it to moisture. This is an electrical device!
• Be sure to use the correct power supply.
• Always use an approved power adapter.
The power adapter requires a fluctuation-free and
uninterrupted power supply. If you have any questions,
consult your local electricity supply company.
Never pull on the cable to unplug the power supply
– always pull the plug itself.
Disconnect the external power supply (poswer adapter
or car adapter) before cleaning the notebook.
• Notes on Using Batteries
Only use batteries designed exclusively for use with
this notebook.
Recharge batteries via the notebook.
Do not attempt to repair faulty batteries yourself. En-
trust repairs to your dealer or qualified service person-
nel.
Keep damaged batteries away from children and dis-
pose of them properly as soon as possible. Exercise
caution in handling damaged batteries. Batteries may
explode if exposed to fire or improperly handled or
disposed of.
The notebook is provided with a battery.The battery
is recyclable. It is prohibited by law to dispose of the
battery in ordinary household waste. If you have ques-
tions concerning proper disposal, consult your garbage
collection service.

• Note on the System Clock Battery
Caution:There is a risk of explosion if batteries are
replaced incorrectly. Replace the battery only with a
battery recommended by the manufacturer or with a
battery of the same type. Dispose of the battery accord-
ing to the manufacturer’s instructions.
• Servicing
Do not service the notebook yourself! You could invalidate your warranty
rights and expose yourself and the device to the risk of electrical shock. If
servicing is required, consult qualified service personnel. Disconnect the
notebook from the power supply.
If the following problems occur, consult qualified service personnel:
• Cleaning
Never apply cleaning agents directly to the notebook. Use only a soft, lint-
free cloth. Never use volatile (petroleum distillates) or scouring cleaning
agents.
- Power adapter or power cable is damaged or frayed.
- Liquid has entered the notebook.
- Despite operating it correctly, the notebook is not func-
tioning properly.
- The notebook has been dropped or damaged.

Wireless LAN
(wireless network - abbreviation = WLAN)
Your notebook may contain a Wireless LAN module (optional).This module allows you to set
up a wireless-based network, and to connect with an existing wireless network. It works
according to the IEEE802.11a+b+g (n) standard.
WLAN technology allows users to set up wireless connections inside a local area (e.g. in
a company or campus building, or in a public building such as an airport). WLANs can be
used in temporary offices, in locations where it is not possible to set up extensive cable
installations, or to extend an existing LAN so that users in different parts of a building can
work at different times.
There are two different ways to operate a WLAN.
In fixed WLANs, wireless stations (devices with radio network cards or external modems)
set up connections with wireless access points, which act as bridges between the stations
and the existing network backbone. In Peer-to-Peer (ad hoc) WLANs several users can set
up a temporary network within a limited area such as a conference room, without using
access points, and providing there is no need to use network resources.
In 1997 the IEEE confirmed the standard 802.11 for WLANs; this set a data transfer rate of 1
to 2 Mbit/s (Megabits per second). Under 802.11a+b+g (n), the new governing standard,
the maximum data transfer rate is 54 (300) Mbit/s over a frequency band of 2.4 or 5 GHz
(Gigahertz).

Additional safety notes for units with wireless LAN
A wireless LAN component is integrated into your Notebook. For this reason you must make
sure that you comply with the following notes on safety:
• Switch off the Notebook when you are in an aircraft or
while driving a car.
• If you are in a hospital, an operating room or close to an
electronic medical system, switch off the wireless compo-
nents in the Notebook! The radio waves which are transmit-
ted could disrupt the working of the medical equipment.
• Keep the Notebook at least 20 cm away from a heart pace-
maker, otherwise there is a risk that the radio waves could
disrupt the normal working of the pacemaker.
• The radio waves which are transmitted could give rise to
interference noise in hearing aids.
• When its radio components are switched on, do not place
the Notebook close to inflammable gases or in an environ-
ment which could be at risk of explosion (e.g. paint shop),
since the radio waves which are transmitted could set of a
fire or an explosion.
• The range of the wireless connection depends on the envi-
ronmental and other ambient conditions.
• When transferring data over a wireless connection, unau-
thorized Third Parties can also receive the data.
MAXDATA International GmbH is not responsible for disruptions to radio or television recep-
tion which are caused by unauthorized alterations to this unit. MAXDATA also accepts no
responsibility for the replacement or the exchange of connecting cables and units which
were not specified by MAXDATA International GmbH. The user alone is responsible for the
elimination of disruptions caused by this type of unauthorized alteration; he is also respon-
sible for the replacement or the exchange of the units.

Radio frequencies for units with wireless LAN
The following information was correct at January 2002. You can obtain current information
from the appropriate authorities in your country (e.g. www.regtp.de).
FREQUENCIES
Radio network cards and adapters are designed in accordance with IEEE-Standard 802.11b+g
(+n, optional) for use in the ISM frequency band (Industrial, Scientific, Medical) between
2.4 and 2.4835 GHz. Because of the DSSS-procedure (Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum),
each of the 11 usable radio channels takes up a width of 22 MHz; this means that up to
three, independent channels are available (e.g. 3, 8 and 11). The following table lists the
authorised channels in your country:
Channel MHz Europe, R&TTE France, R&TTE
12412 X
22417 X
32422 X
42427 X
52432 X
62437 X
72442 X
82447 X
92452 X
10 2457 X X
