FCC Compliance Statement
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;
2. This device must accept any interference received, includ-
ing interference that may cause undesired operation.
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 limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a residential
installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate
radio frequency energy. 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 and correct the interference by one or more of
the following measures:
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur
in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful
CAUTION!
Exposure to Radio Frequency Radiation.
The radiated output of this device is far
below the FCC radio frequency exposure
limits. Nevertheless, the device shall be
used in such a manner that the potential
for human contact during normal opera-
tion is minimized. When connecting an
external antenna to the device, the
antenna shall be placed in such a manner
to minimize the potential for human con-
tact during normal operation. In order to
avoid the possibility of exceeding the FCC
radio frequency exposure limits, human
proximity to the antenna shall not be less
than 20cm (8inches) during normal opera-
tion.

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 dealer or an experienced computer technician
for help

Safety Instructions
Use the following safety guidelines to help protect yourself and
X10D.
• Do not attempt to service the X10D yourself. Always follow
installation instructions closely.
• Be sure that nothing rests on the AC adapter's power cable
and that the cable is not located where it can be tripped
over or stepped on.
• Do not cover the AC adaptor with papers or other items
that will reduce cooling; also, do not use the AC adapter
while it is inside a carrying case.
• Use only the AC adapter, power cord, and batteries that are
approved for use with this X10D. Use of another type of
battery or AC adapter may cause risk of fire or explosion.
• If you use an extension cable with the AC adapter, ensure
that the total ampere rating of the products plugged in to
the extension cable does not exceed the ampere rating of
the extension cable.
• When you move the X10D between environments with very
different temperature and/ore humidity ranges,
condensation may form on or within the X10D. To avoid
damaging the X10D, allow sufficient time for the moisture
to evaporate before using the X10D.
• When you disconnect a cable, pull on its connector or on its
strain relief loop, not on the cable itself. As you pull out
the connector, keep it evenly aligned to avoid bending any
connector pins. Also, before you connect a cable make sure
both connectors are correctly oriented and aligned.
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of fire, use only No.26 AWG or larger (e.g., 24
AWG) UL Listed or CSA Certified Telecommunication Line Cord.

Battery Safety
RTC Battery Caution
RISK OF EXPLOSION IF BATTERY IS REPLACED BY AN INCORRECT
TYPE. DISPOSE OF USED BATTERIES ACCORDING TO THE
INSTRUCTIONS.
• Do not place the battery incorrectly as this may cause
danger of explosion.
• Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer's
instructions.
• Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. They may explode.
Check with local authorities for disposal instructions.
Battery Pack Caution
• The battery used in this device may present a risk of fire or
chemical burn if mistreated. Do no disassemble, heat above
50°C, or incinerate. Replace battery with 46-12381-030 Li-
ion 11.1V 4800mAh Cell Panasonic SMP only. Use of another
battery may present a risk of fire or explosion.
• Dispose of used batteries according to local disposal
regulations. Keep away from children. Do not disassemble
and do not dispose of in a fire.
Battery Charge Notice
It is important to consider the environment temperature
whenever you are charging the Lithium-Ion battery pack. The
process is more efficient at normal room temperature or slightly
cooler. It is essential that you charge batteries within the stated
range of 0°C to 50°C. Charging batteries outside of the specified
range could damage the batteries and shorten their charging life
cycle.

Storage and Safety Notice
Although charge Lithium-Ion batteries may be left unused for
several months, their capacity may be depleted due to the build
up of internal resistance. If this happens they will require
recharging prior to use. Lithium-Ion batteries may be stored at
temperatures between -20°C to 50°C, however they may be
depleted more rapidly at the high end of this range. It is
recommended to store batteries within normal room
temperature ranges.
