housing.
Caution!
Always ground yourself to remove any static charge before
touching the CPU card. The electronic devices are very
sensitive to static electricity. For safety concerns, please use a
grounding wrist strap all the time. Place all electronic
components in a static-dissipative surface or static-shielded bag
when they are outside of the chassis.

FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION
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 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 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.
CAUTION:
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the
equipment.
RF exposure warning
The equipment complies with FCC RF exposure limits set forth for an
uncontrolled environment.
The antenna(s) used for this transmitter must not be co-located or operating in
conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

RF exposure information (SAR)
This Rugged Tablet PC meets the government's requirements for exposure to
radio waves. This Rugged Tablet PC is designed and manufactured not to
exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by
the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government. The
exposure standard for wireless Rugged Tablet PC employs a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit
set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard
operating positions accepted by the FCC with the Rugged Tablet PC
transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands.
Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual
SAR level of the Rugged Tablet PC while operating can be well below the
maximum value. This is because the Rugged Tablet PC is designed to operate
at multiple power levels so as to use only the poser required to reach the
network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the
lower the power output. The highest SAR value for US model Rugged Tablet
PC as reported to the FCC when tested for use at the body, as described in
this user guide, is 1.115 W/kg.

The Ta blet PC power is comprised of two parts, the power adapter and the battery.
The power adapter converts AC power from a wall outlet to the DC power required
by the Tablet PC. Your Tablet PC comes with a universal AC-DC adapter. That means
that you may connect the power cord to any 100V-120V as well as 220V-240V
outlets without setting switches or using power converters. Different countries may
require that an adapter be used to connect the provided US-standard AC power
cord to a different standard.
