or deformation.
• If liquid from the damaged bat-
tery comes in contact with cloth-
ing or skin, rinse immediately with
plenty of water.
Observe the following pre-
cautions when handling the

Introduction
FCC/IC RF Exposure Statement
The available scientific evidence
does not show that any health prob-
lems are associated with using low
power wireless devices. There is no
proof, however, that these low
power wireless devices are abso-
lutely safe. Low power wireless
devices emit low levels of radio fre-
quency energy (RF) in the micro-
wave range while being used.
Whereas high levels of RF can pro-
duce health effects (by heating tis-
sue), exposure to low-level RF that
does not produce heating effects
causes no known adverse health
effects. Many studies of low-level RF
exposures have not found any bio-
logical effects. Some studies have
suggested that some biological
effects might occur, but such find-
ings have not been confirmed by
additional research. Wireless LAN
Module (GC-131) has been tested
and found to comply with FCC/IC
radiation exposure limits set forth
for an uncontrolled equipment and
meets the FCC radio frequency (RF)
Exposure Guidelines in Supplement
C to OET65 and RSS-102 of the IC
radio frequency (RF) Exposure rules.
Please refer to the SAR test report
that was uploaded at FCC website.
This device should not be co-located
or operated in conjunction with any
other antenna or transmitter.
Notice for customers in the
U.S.A.
FCC RF Interference Statement
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 lim-
its are designed to provide reason-
able protection against harmful
interference in a residential installa-
tion. This equipment generates,
uses, and can radiate radio fre-
quency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communica-
tions. However, there is no guaran-
tee that interference will not occur
in a particular installation. If this
equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television
reception, which can be deter-
mined by turning the equipment off
and on, the user is encouraged to
try to correct the interference by
one or more of the following mea-
sures:
• 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 con-
nected.
• Consult the dealer or an experi-
enced radio/television technician
for help.

Information and Precautions
Introduction
Notice Concerning Prohibition of Copying or Reproduction
Note that simply being in possession of material that has been digitally copied or reproduced
by means of a scanner, digital camera or other device may be punishable by law.
•Items prohibited by law from being copied or reproduced
Do not copy or reproduce paper money, coins, securities, government bonds, or local gov-
ernment bonds, even if such copies or reproductions are stamped “Sample”.
The copying or reproduction of paper money, coins, or securities which are circulated in a
foreign country is prohibited.
Unless the prior permission of the government has been obtained, the copying or repro-
duction of unused postage stamps or post cards issued by the government is prohibited.
The copying or reproduction of stamps issued by the government and of certified docu-
ments stipulated by law is prohibited.
•Cautions on certain copies and reproductions
The government has issued cautions on copies or reproductions of securities issued by pri-
vate companies (shares, bills, checks, gift certificates, etc.), commuter passes, or coupon
tickets, except when a minimum of necessary copies are to be provided for business use by
a company. Also, do not copy or reproduce passports issued by the government, licenses
issued by public agencies and private groups, ID cards, and tickets, such as passes and meal
coupons.
•Comply with copyright notices
The copying or reproduction of copyrighted creative works such as books, music, paintings,
woodcut prints, maps, drawings, movies, and photographs is governed by national and
international copyright laws. Do not use this product for the purpose of making illegal cop-
ies or to infringe copyright laws.
Disposing of Data Storage Devices
Please note that deleting images or formatting data storage devices such as memory cards or
built-in camera memory does not completely erase the original image data. Deleted files can
sometimes be recovered from discarded storage devices using commercially available soft-
ware, potentially resulting in the malicious use of personal image data. Ensuring the privacy of
such data is the user’s responsibility.
Before discarding a data storage device or transferring ownership to another person, erase all
data using commercial deletion software, or format the device and then completely refill it
with images containing no private information (for example, pictures of empty sky). Be sure to
also replace any pictures selected for the welcome screen (c109). Care should be taken to
avoid injury or damage to property when physically destroying data storage devices.
