802.11a/n Restrictions
— This product is for indoor use only when using channels 36, 40, 44, 48, 52, 56, 60,
or 64 (5150-5350 MHz).
— To ensure compliance with local regulations, be sure to select the country in which
the access point is installed.
Lithium-ion Battery Pack
Each lithium-ion battery pack has its life. The life span heavily depends on how the battery pack is charged or stored which may cause deterioration of the battery pack to shorten the life span if it is handled improperly. Note the tips below to make the battery pack last long.
— Be sure to charge the battery pack before using it if the battery pack is used for the
rst time or if it has not been used for a long period of time. When charging the battery pack, continue charging until the charge LED lights green (fully charged).
— If the battery pack is repeatedly charged, the life span becomes short. To avoid the
repetition of charging the battery pack, be sure that the remaining capacity is low before you start charging.
— Be sure to charge the battery pack in recommended temperature range. The
temperature range is dependant on device you use to charge including battery chargers and tablets. Refer to the respective user guides. Charging the battery pack in a temperature outside of the recommended range causes deterioration.
— When used at low temperatures, the battery pack has a reduced capacity and will
supply power for shorter time. The life span of the battery pack is also shortened.
— Charging the battery pack while the battery pack itself is freeze including inside
causes deterioration. Be sure to resume an ordinary room temperature on the battery pack and then leave it unattended for approximately one hour before charging.
— After charging the battery pack, if the performance of the battery pack does not show
any recovery, it is a sign of ending the life. Replace it with a new battery pack.
Avoid the battery pack with a full of the capacity to store for a long period of time. If you need to store it for a long period, be sure that the remaining capacity is 30 to 50 percent and to store in a moderate low temperature. This can reduce deterioration.
— The battery pack gradually deteriorates over time. In particular, storing (or using)
the fully charged battery pack at high temperatures tends to accelerate battery pack deterioration.
Weld Lines
There are seam-like markings in some locations on the Handheld Terminal. These are referred to as “weld lines” in the plastic forming process and are not cracks or scratches. Weld lines do not interfere in any way with the operation of the Handheld Terminal.

IT-G500-C21E-US
This model is available in the USA and Canada only.
For Users in Canada
These Class B digital apparatuses comply with Canadian ICES-3(B)/NMB-3(B). Cet appareil numériqué de la classes B est conformé à la norme ICES-3(B)/NMB-3(B) du Canada.
This device complies with Industry Canada’s licence-exempt RSSs. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) These devices may not cause interference, and (2) These devices must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of this device.
Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d’Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence. L’exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes : (1) l’appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage; (2) l’utilisateur de l’appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible d’en compromettre le fonctionnement.
Users should also be advised that 5,150-5,350 MHz band is restricted to indoor operation
only. High-power radars are allocated as primary users (i.e. priority users) of the bands 5,250-5,350 MHz and 5,650-5,850 MHz and that these radars could cause interference and/or damage to LE-LAN devices.
Les utilisateurs devraient aussi être avisés que
La bande 5,150-5,350 MHz est restreinte à une utilisation à l’intérieur seulement. De plus, les utilisateurs de radars de haute puissance sont désignés utilisateurs principaux (c.­à-d.,qu’ils ont la priorité) pour les bandes 5,250-5,350 MHz et 5,650-5,850 MHz et que ces radars pourraient causer du brouillage et/ou des dommages aux dispositifs LAN-EL.

E-11
The available scientifi c evidence does not show that any health problems are associated with using low power wireless devices. There is no proof, however, that these low power 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 of 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 fi ndings have not been confi rmed by additional research. IT-G500-C21E-US has been tested and found to comply with FCC/IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines and RSS-102 of the IC radio frequency (RF) Exposure rules.
Les connaissances scientifi ques dont nous disposons n’ont mis en évidence aucun problème de santé associé à l’usage des appareils sans fi l à faible puissance. Nous ne sommes cependant pas en mesure de prouver que ces appareils sans fi l à faible puissance sont entièrement sans danger. Les appareils sans fi l à faible puissance émettent une énergie fréquence radioélectrique (RF) très faible dans le spectre des micro-ondes lorsqu’ils sont utilisés. Alors qu’une dose élevée de RF peut avoir des effets sur la santé (en chauffant les tissus), l’exposition à de faibles RF qui ne produisent pas de chaleur n’a pas de mauvais effets connus sur la santé. De nombreuses études ont été menées sur les expositions aux RF faibles et n’ont découvert aucun effet biologique. Certaines études ont suggéré qu’il pouvait y avoir certains effets biologiques, mais ces résultats n’ont pas été confi rmés par des recherches supplémentaires. IT-G500-C21E-US a été testé et jugé conforme aux limites d’exposition aux rayonnements énoncées pour un environnement non contrôlé et respecte les règles les radioélectriques (RF) de la FCC lignes directrices d'exposition et d’exposition aux fréquences radioélectriques (RF) CNR-102 de l’IC.

Loading and Removing the Battery Pack
Your Handheld Terminal uses two types of battery: a battery pack and a memory backup battery. The battery pack is used to power normal operations and to store data, while the memory backup battery provides the power required to maintain memory contents when the battery pack power is unable to supply power for some reason. You can choose either battery pack (HA-D20BAT-A) or large-capacity battery pack (HA-D21LBAT-A) for operating power. The backup battery is installed inside of the Handheld Terminal.
This guide uses the following terms to refer to the batteries.
Battery Pack: Rechargeable battery pack (HA-D20BAT-A or HA-D21LBAT-A) for
Backup Battery: Built-in battery for memory backup
When the battery pack power goes low, immediately charge it or replace it with a charged battery pack. You can use the Dual Battery Charger, the Cradle-type Battery Charger, the USB Cradle, or the Ethernet Cradle to charge a battery pack installed in the terminal. See the relevant sections in this guide for the respective options about how to use.
Important! Always keep backup of all important data!
The battery pack powers normal operation and also provides power required to
maintain memory contents, while the backup battery provides backup power to maintain memory contents. Because of this, you should not remove the battery pack if the backup battery is dead. Removing the battery pack while the backup battery is dead causes data in the memory to be corrupted or lost. Note that once data is lost it cannot be recovered. Always keep backup of all important data. The charge of a battery pack when you purchase it may be depleted due to
testing at the factory or natural discharge during shipment and storage. Be sure to charge the battery pack before you use it. The life of a battery pack is limited, and charging a battery pack causes it to
gradually lose its ability to maintain the charge. If your battery pack seems to require charging very frequently, it probably means it is time to purchase a new one. If a battery pack is used past the end of its service life, it may swell up in size. In
such a case, replace the battery pack with a new one. If the backup battery is fully charged, it will maintain the contents of the
terminal's memory (RAM) for approximately 4 minutes when the main battery pack is removed. It takes 4 days with the main battery pack installed in the terminal for the
backup battery to be charged fully.
