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.
Changes or modification not expressly approved by manufacturer for
compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
For Canada
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference, including
interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.
To prevent radio interference to the licensed service, this device is intended

For safety
Do not use this product in locations where use may be forbidden, for example,
in an aeroplane or a hospital. If you do not know the forbidden areas, please refer
to and follow the airline company or medical institution guidelines.
Flight instrument or medical equipment may be affected, causing a serious
accident.
Since this product uses extremely low power compared with mobile phones, it

Safety Precautions
Do not disassemble, modify, or repair the product. Doing so may cause
injury. Also, modification is against the Laws and Regulations for Radio
Equipment. Please ask your TOSHIBA TEC sales agent for repair.
Precaution in use
This product communicates with other devices by radio. Depending on the
installation location, orientation, environment, etc., its communication
performance may deteriorate or devices installed near by may be affected.
Keep away from a microwave.
Communication performance may deteriorate or a communication error may
occur due to the radio emitted from a microwave.
Since the Bluetooth and wireless LAN use the same radio frequency band,
each radio wave may interfere with each other when they are used at the
same time, causing a deterioration of communication performance or a
disconnection of network. If there is any problem with connection, please
stop using either Bluetooth or wireless LAN.
Do not use the product on a metal table or near a metal object.
Communication performance may be deteriorated.

This indicates that there is the risk of death or
serious injury if the machines are handled
improperly or contrary to this indication.
•If water or any other liquid enters the machine, turn off the power.
Continuous use of the machine under such conditions may cause
fire or electric shock.
•If the enclosure is damaged when dropped or subject to shock, turn
off the power. Continuous use of the machine under such conditions
may cause fire or electric shock.
•Avoid continuous exposure to direct sunlight or high temperature as
this may cause fire.
•Do not remove covers or modify the machine by yourself. Doing so
may cause fire or electric shock.
•Avoid water, operation with wet hands or cleaning with a moistened cloth.
Failure to do this may cause fire or electric shock.
•Do not wipe the machine with a cloth moistened with thinner or other
volatile solvent as this may cause fire or electric shock.
•Use the specified battery only. Failure to do this may cause fire or electric
shock.
•Danger of explosion if the battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace the
battery only with TOSHIBA TEC CORPORATION, Battery Pack Model
B-SP2D-BT, 7.4 V 1400 mAh Li-ion.
Discard used batteries according to the manufacturer's instruction.
•ATTENTION:
II ya denger d'explosion s'il ya remplacement incorrect de la batterrie.
Remplacer uniquement avec une batterie du même type ou d'un type
équivalent recommandé par le constructeur.
Mettre au rebut les batteries usagées conformément aux instructions du
fabricant.
•Do not disassemble and modify the battery because it has a protection
unit in it. Doing so may break the protection unit, causing the battery to
heat up, burst or burn.
•If the battery gets wet, dry it completely. Using a wet battery may cause
fire or electric shock.
