Read the following safety precautions before installation or operation.
WARNING!
Abnormal Conditions
Should the CE-500 become hot or start to emit smoke or a strange odor, immediately turn
off the power and contact your original dealer or an authorized service provider. Continued
usage is dangerous and may result in fire or electric shock.
WARNING!
Foreign Objects
Should any foreign matter get into the CE-500, immediately turn off the power and
contact your original dealer or an authorized service provider.
WARNING!
Damage Caused by Dropping
Should you drop the device and possibly have caused damage, immediately turn off the
power and contact your original dealer or an authorized service provider. Continued usage
is dangerous and may result in fire or electric shock.
WARNING!
Moisture
Keep the device away from vases, planets, cups, glasses, and other liquid containers.
Water or metal getting into the device creates the danger of fire and electric shock.
Continued usage after water or metal has gotten into the CE-500 is dangerous and may
result in fire or electric shock.
CAUTION
Foreign Objects
Ensure that metal or combustible objects are not inserted into any openings. Such objects
may result in fire or electric shock.
CAUTION
Location
Do not place the CE-500 on an unstable or uneven surface. Doing so may cause the CE-
500 to fall, which may result in personal injury or major damage to the device.
Do not locate the device in extremely humid or dusty areas. Doing so may result in fire or
electric shock.

CAUTION
LCD Screen
Never apply heavy pressure on the CE-500 device display or subject it to strong impact.
Doing so may crack the screen or LCD panel glass, which may result in personal injury or
major damage to the device.
Should the LCD panel glass break, do not touch the liquid inside. Doing so may cause skin
inflammation.
Should liquid from the LCD panel accidentally get into a person's mouth, their mouth must
be immediately washed out with water and a physician consulted.
Should liquid from the LCD panel accidentally get into a person's eyes or onto their skin,
the area must be immediately rinsed for at least 15 minutes with clean tap water and a
physician consulted.

WARNING!
Do not use the CE-500 at a voltage other than specified. Doing so may result in fire or
electric shock.
Avoid conditions that can cause damage or breaks in the power cable. Do not place heavy
objects on the power cable and keep it away from sources of heat. Any of the above may
damage the power cable, which may result in fire or electric shock.
Never twist, sharply bend, or pull the power cable. Doing so may result in fire or electric
shock.
Should the power cable become severely damaged (to the point that wires are exposed or
broken), contact your original dealer or service provider about repair or replacement.
Using a damaged electrical cable may result in fire or electric shock.
CAUTION
Keep the power cable away from sources of extreme heat. Heat may melt the covering of
the power cable, which may result in fire or electric shock.

The CE-500 provides Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and ASPs Application Service Providers
(APS) with a rugged, versatile, vehicle-centric, and fixed-mount or portable mobile-computing platform
for a variety of Mobile Resource Management (MRM) applications.
The platform features Microsoft Windows Embedded CE 6 operating system that supports Compact
Framework 3.5 and offers comprehensive development environment for independent application
programming and system integration.
The CE-500 incorporates a unique layered architecture making the platform highly modular and scalable.
This architecture enables setting various factory-set configurations and performing in-field hardware
upgrades using plug-in modules.
The layered architecture provides a proof and cost-effective design by simplifying maintenance tasks,
significantly extending product life expectancy, and lowing a total cost of ownership (TCO).
The CE-500 Basic configuration is the standard set of features and functions of the MDT. There is a
range of optional Extensions, add-ons and Accessories to further enhance the CE-500 capabilities to
serve advanced fleet management solutions.
The CE-500 is built to withstand a wide temperature range, vibrations, shock, and endure the rough
working conditions in commercial vehicle environment.

Micronet implemented the CE-500 platform in two product models, which are ergonomically designed for
use in commercial vehicles of different sizes. Each model provides a user interface optimized for use in
certain conditions.
