or storage facilities, and areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as
grain, dust, or metal powders. Please be aware that sparks in such areas could cause an
explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.
EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES
When in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere or where flammable
materials exist, the device should be turned off and the user should obey all signs and
instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily
injury or even death. Users are advised not to use the equipment at refueling points
such as service or gas stations, and are reminded of the need to observe restrictions
on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots, chemical plants, or where blasting
operations are in progress. Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often,
but not always, clearly marked. These include fueling areas, below deck on boats, fuel
or chemical transfer or storage facilities, and areas where the air contains chemicals or
particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR RF EXPOSURE
• Avoid using your device near metal structures (for example, the steel frame of a
building).
• Avoid using your device near strong electromagnetic sources, such as microwave
ovens, sound speakers, TV and radio.

SnapVUE™ is an instant-on mode that gives you up-to-date weather
information, SMS messaging, and a Direct Push function that enables
you to receive instant work e-mails (Outlook E-mail) from your company’s
Exchange Server mailbox. You can switch to SnapVUE mode anytime,
whether Windows Vista® is running or off.
To switch to SnapVUE mode
• Press the SnapVUE button.
To switch back to Windows Vista®
1. Press the SnapVUE button.
2. If there is no display on the screen, it means that Windows Vista®
has been idle for some time and has entered sleep mode. To wake
Windows Vista® out of sleep mode, slide the HOLD switch that is
located on the right side of your Mobile Computer.
Notes • Windows Vista® and SnapVUE modes display in landscape orientation
only.
• SnapVUE does not operate until you have powered on your Mobile
Computer the first time. After that, SnapVUE is in instant-on mode.
• To always keep SnapVUE in instant-on mode, do not remove the battery
from your Mobile Computer. If you remove and reinsert the battery, you
need to start up the Mobile Computer in Windows Vista® first before you
can access SnapVUE mode.
