WARNING
Only use the specified bat-
tery pack.
Using a different type of battery
pack could cause damage to
equipment, battery-rupture or
leakage of battery fluid and re-
sulting in a fire, burn, bodily in-
jury, or serious damage to prop-
erty.
Only use the specified charger
for charging the battery pack.
Using a different type of charger
could cause battery-rupture or
leakage of battery fluid and re-
sulting in a fire, burn, bodily in-
jury, or serious damage to prop-
erty.
Only use the specified AC
adaptor for Communication
Cradle HIF-51.
Using a different type of AC
adaptor could cause heat or fire,
or damage to equipment.
Do not heat the battery pack,
nor put it into fire or water.
Doing so could cause battery-
rupture or leakage of battery fluid
and resulting in a fire, burn,
bodily injury, or serious damage
to property.
Do not attempt disassemble
or modify the battery.
Doing so could cause battery-
rupture or leakage of battery fluid
and resulting in a fire, burn,
bodily injury, or serious damage
to property.
Do not carry or store the
battery pack together with
metallic object such as ball-
point pens, necklaces, coins,
hairpins, etc.
Doing so could short-circuit the
terminal pins, causing the batteri-
es to rupture the battery fluid to
leak, resulting in a fire, burn,
bodily injury.
Do not use the battery if
leakage, change of color or
shape, or other abnormalities
occur.
Doing so could cause fire, burn,
bodily injury, or serious damage
to property. If it brings close to
fire, this cause ignition in leakage
of battery fluid.
Avoid dropping the battery
pack or letting it undergo any
shock or impact.
Doing so could cause the batteri-
es to break, generate heat, rupture
or burn.

iv
Do not charge the battery
pack where any inflammable
gases may be emitted.
Doing so could cause battery-
rupture or leakage of battery fluid
and resulting in a fire, burn,
bodily injury, or serious damage
to property.
If battery fluid gets in your
eyes, wash it out with clean
water and contact a physi-
cian immediately.
If it is left, there is fear of loss of
eyesight.
If battery fluid gets on your
skin, or clothes, wash it off
with clean water.
If it is left, there is fear of dam-
age of skin.
Do not attempt disassemble
or modify the battery charger
and the communication cra-
dle.
Doing so could cause excessive
heat, fire, or electrical shock.
Never cut, damage or modify
the power code of battery
charger and communication
cradle.
Doing so could cause excessive
heat, fire, or electrical shock.
Do not place or charge the
battery in the hot places such
as a fire side, a stove side,
under the burning sun, etc.
Doing so could cause battery-
rupture or leakage of battery fluid
and resulting in a fire, burn,
bodily injury, or serious damage
If there are problems or ab-
normalities, such as emitting
smoke or strange odor found
with communication cradles,
turn off the power and unplug
the AC power code.
Continued use in this condition
could cause fire or electrical
shock.
Do not stare into laser beam.
Do not aim the laser at a
person's eye.
The laser beam emitted through
the reading window is harmful to
the eyes.
Be careful not to hook a
strap when carrying the ter-
minal.
If strap is caught in an obstacle, it
could cause injury or accident.

v
Caution
Only use the specified serial cable for Communication Cradle HIF-51.
Using a different type of cable could cause communication error or equipment trouble.
Do not place or use the ter-
minal in the hot places such
as a fire side, a stove side,
under the burning sun, etc.
Doing so could cause fire, modi-
fication of a case or equipment
trouble.
Do not place or use the ter-
minal in high humid or dusty
areas.
If moisture or dust will get into
the terminal, resulting in failure,
fire or electrical shock.
Do not use the terminal in
the place of water, such as
rain or shower.
If water will gets into the termi-
nal, resulting in failure, fire or
electrical shock.
Do not drop the terminal or
subject it to strong impact or
vibrations.
This could cause malfunction or
failure.
Do cover or wrap up the
equipment or AC adapter in
a cloth or blanket.
Doing so could cause the unit to
heat up inside, defouming its
housing, resulting in a fire.
Keep the power cord away
from any heating equipment.
Failure to do so could melt the
sheathing, resulting in a fire or
electrical shock.

vi
Laser Safety
This product using the laser comply with US 21CFR1040.10.
This equipment is certified as a Class 2 laser product under the U.S. Department of
Health and Human Services (DHHS) Radiation Performance Standard according to the
Radiation Control for Health and Safety Act of 1968. This means that the equipment
does not produce hazardous laser radiation.
FDA Regulations
U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has implemented regulations for laser pro-
ducts manufactured on and after August 2, 1976. Compliance is mandatory for products
marketed in the United States. The labels on the product indicate compliance with the
FDA regulations and must be attached to laser products marketed in the United States.
Caution:
Do not look into the laser beam source through the reading window or point the
reading window towards the eyes. The laser beam emitted through the reading win-
dow is harmful to the eyes.
Use of controls, adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified
in this manual may result in hazardous invisible radiation exposure.
Class 2 laser scanners use a low power, visible light diode. As with any very bright
light source, such as the sun, the user should avoid staring directly into the light beam.
Momentary exposure to a Class 2 laser is not known to be harmful.

FCC 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, and
(2) This device must accept any interference received, including interfer-
ence that may cause undesired operation.
Note:
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 and, if not in-
stalled and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference 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 dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Warning:
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer responsible for
compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.

ix
FCC Radiation Exposure Statement
The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are associated
with using low power wireless devices. There is no proof, however, that these low pow-
er wireless devices are absolutely safe. Low power Wireless devices emit low levels of
radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while being used. Whereas high
levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue), 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 biological effects. Some studies have
suggested that some biological effects might occur, but such findings have not been con-
firmed by additional research. The CTR-800-11W has been tested and found to comply
with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) guidelines on radilo frequency
energy (RF) exposures. The maximum SAR levels tested for the CTR-800-11W has
been shown to be 1.02 W/kg at body.
