to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not
occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to
radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off
and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:
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 connected.
Consult the Panasonic Service Center or an experienced radio/TV technician for
help.
Warning
To assure continued compliance, use only shielded interface cables when connecting
to a computer or peripheral. Also, any changes or modications not expressly
approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to
operate this equipment.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation.
This device is Class B veried to comply with Part 15 of FCC Rules when used with

telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV
broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic
environment due to xed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be
considered. If the measured eld strength in the location in which the Model CF-VCBC11U is
used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the Model CF-VCBC11U should be
observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional
measures may be necessary, such as re-orienting or relocating the Model CF-VCBC11U.
*3 Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, eld strengths should be less than 3 V/m.

Recommended Separation Distances Between Portable and Mobile RF Communications
Equipment and the CF-VCBC11U.
The Model CF-VCBC11U is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which
radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of the Model CF-VCBC11U
can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between
portable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters) and the Model CF-VCBC11U
as recommended below, according to the maximum output power of the communications
equipment.

CAUTION
● Install or remove the battery pack on a at stable surface.
●Remove the battery before transporting the battery charger. The
battery pack may fall out while the charger is being carried.
●Do not touch the battery charger connectors as it can damage or
transfer dust to the connectors and cause malfunction.
●Refer to the “Operating Instructions” that came with the
computer for information on proper handling of the AC adaptor.
●If dust or dirt has built up on the connectors,
disconnect the AC adaptor and battery pack,
turn the battery charger over, and remove the
dust and dirt. Dust buildup can cause faults
and prevent charging from being performed
successfully. Clean away dust regularly. Do not drop the battery
