FCC Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for either Class A or Class B digital devices
(refer to "Regulatory Compliance for Thin Computers"), 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 installed 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 the 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.
Shielded interconnect cables and shielded AC power cable must be employed with this equipment to insure
compliance with the pertinent RF emission limits governing this device. Changes or modifications not expressly
approved by the system's manufacturer could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.

iii
Caution
Changes or modifications not covered in this manual must be approved in writing by the
manufacturer’s Regulatory Engineering department. Changes or modifications made without
written approval may void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
Regulatory Compliance for Thin Computers
EMC and Safety Requirements
Thin computers are compliant with the regulatory requirements in the regions listed below.
U.S.A. - FCC Part 15 (class B)
Canada - CAN/CSA-C22 No. 60950
Europe - EN 55022 (class B), EN 61000-3-2 (class A), EN 61000-3-3, EN 90650-1:2000+ALL
Canadian DOC Notices
Class A
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radio noise emissions from digital apparatus set out in
the Radio Interference Regulations of the Canadian Department of Communications.
Le présent appareil numérique n’émet pas de bruits radioélectriques dépassant les limites applicables aux
appareils numériques de la classe A prescrites dans le Réglement sur le brouillage radioélectrique édicté par le
Ministère des Communications du Canada.
Class B
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class B limits for radio noise emissions from digital apparatus set out in
the Radio Interference Regulations of the Canadian Department of Communications.
Le présent appareil numérique n’émet pas de bruits radioélectriques dépassant les limites applicables aux
appareils numériques de la classe B prescrites dans le Réglement sur le brouillage radioélectrique édicté par le
Ministère des Communications du Canada.
IEC/EN Notice
These products conform to the requirements of IEC950 and EN60950.
These products conform to requirements of EN55022 for Class A equipment or EN55022 for Class B equipment
(refer to "Regulatory Compliance for Thin Computers").
Wireless Usage and Requirements
Radio transmitting type devices (RF module) are present as a standard option. These devices operate in the 2.4
GHz band (i.e. 802.11b/g/n WLAN & Bluetooth).
As a general guideline, a separation of 20 cm (8 inches) between the wireless device and the body, for use of a
wireless device near the body (this does not include extremities) is typical. This device should be used more than
20 cm (8 inches) from the body when wireless devices are on and transmitting.
Some circumstances require restrictions on wireless devices. Examples of common restrictions include:
•When in environments where you are uncertain of the sanction to use wireless devices, ask the applicable
authority for authorization prior to use or turning on the wireless device.
•Every country has different restrictions on the use of wireless devices. Since your system is equipped with a
wireless device, when traveling between countries with your system, check with the local Radio Approval
authorities prior to any move or trip for any restrictions on the use of a wireless device in the destination
country.
•Wireless devices are not user-serviceable. Do not modify them in any way. Modification to a wireless device
will void the authorization to use it. Please contact the manufacturer for service.

iv
Cable Notice
The use of shielded I/O cables is required when connecting this equipment to any and all optional peripheral or
host devices. Failure to do so may cause interference and violate FCC and international regulations for
electromagnetic interference.
Device Power Supply
Wyse X class thin computers use an external power adapter. Use only with Wyse approved power adapters
(refer to the Wyse Web site).
Caution
Replace power adapter with the same or equivalent type as recommended by the manufacturer.
Battery Information
Wyse X class thin computers contain a replaceable battery. The battery is designed to work with your Wyse thin
computer. Do not use a battery from other thin computers with your thin computer. Replace the battery only with
a compatible battery purchased from Wyse (refer to the Wyse Web site).
Warning
There is a risk of explosion if the battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Always dispose of used
batteries according to the instructions accompanying the battery.
Caution
Misuse of the battery may increase the risk of fire of chemical burn. Do not puncture, incinerate,
disassemble, or expose the battery to temperatures above 65°C (149°F). Keep the battery away
from children. Handle damaged or leaking batteries with extreme care. Damaged batteries may
leak and cause personal injury or equipment damage.
