Important Safety Information
AC-Powered Devices
These pre cautions apply to all produc ts that plug into a standard wall power outlet .
Failure to take the following pre cautions can result in serious injury or death from electric shock or re
or in damage to the de vice.

To select an appropriate power source for your device:
● Use only the power supply unit an d AC power cord that came with your device or that you recei ved
from an autho rized repair center.
● Conrm that your electrical outlet provides the ty pe of power indic ated on the power supply unit
(in terms of vol tage [V ] and freque ncy [Hz]). If you are not sure of the type of power supplie d to your
home, consult a qualied electrician .
● Do not use non-standard power sources, such as generators or inver ters, even if the voltage and
frequency appear acceptable. Only use AC power provided by a standard wall outlet.
● Do not overlo ad your wall outle t, extension cord, power strip, or other electric al receptacle. Conrm
that they are rated to handle the tot al current (in amps [A]) drawn by the dev ice (indicated on the
power suppl y unit) and any other de vices that are on the same circuit .
To avoid damaging the power cor ds and power supply:
● Protect th e power cords fr om being walked on.
● Protect co rds from being pinched or sharply bent, pa rticular ly where they co nnect to the power outlet,
the power supply unit, and the device.
● Do not jerk , knot, sharply bend, or otherwise ab use the power cords.
● Do not expose the power cords to sources of heat .
● Keep childre n and pets away fr om the power cords. Do not allow the m to bite or chew on them .
● When disconnecting th e power cords, pull on the plug—do not pull on the cord.
If a power cord or power supply becomes damaged in any way, stop using it immediately. Unplug your
device during lightning storms or when unus ed for long periods of time.
For devices with an AC power cord that connects to the power suppl y, always connec t the power cord
according to the following instructions:
1 Plug the AC powe r cord into the power supply until it stops.
2 Plug the other end of the AC power cor d into the wall outlet.
Battery-Powered Devices
These pre cautions apply to all produc ts that use re chargeable or disposabl e batteries.
Improper use of batteries may result in battery uid leakage, overheating, or explosion . Released battery
uid is corrosive and may be toxic . It can cause skin and eye burns, and is harmful if swallowed.
To reduce the risk of injury:
● Keep batteries out of reach of children.
● Do not heat, open, puncture, mutilate , or dispose of bat teries in re.
● Do not mix new and old batteries or batteries of differ ent types (for example, carbon-zinc and
alkaline batteries).
● Do not allow met al object s to touch the battery terminals on the device; they can become hot
and cause burns.
3
● Remove the bat teries if they are worn out or before storin g your device for an extended period of time.
● Always rem ove old, weak, or worn-out batteries promptly and re cycle or dispose of them in accordance
with Local and National Disposal Regulations.
● If a batter y leaks, remove all batteries, taking care to keep the leaked uid from touching your skin
or clothes. If uid from the bat tery comes into contact with skin or clothes, ush skin with water
immediate ly. Before inserting new batteries , thoroughl y clean the battery compartment with a damp
paper towel, or follow the bat tery manufacture r’s recommendations for cleanup.
Disposable (non-re chargeable) batteries only:
● Caution Risk of explosion if batter y is replaced by an incorrect type. Use and replace only with correc t
size and type (alkaline, zinc-carbon , or zinc-chlor ide) of batteries.
Rechar geable batteries only:
● Caution Risk of explosion if batter y is replaced by an incorrect type. Use and replace only with the same
type and rating as the batteries prov ided.
● Charge only with the recharger provide d with the product.
Wireless Devices
Before boarding any aircraft or packin g a wireless device in luggage that will be checked , remove the
batteries from the wireless device or turn the wireless device of f (if it has an on/of f switch). Wireless devices
can transmi t radio frequ ency (RF) energy, much like a cellular telephone, wheneve r batteries are install ed
and the wirel ess device is turned on (if it has an on/off switch).
Keyboard and Mouse Devices
Health Warning
Use of a keyboar d or mouse may be linke d to serious injuries or disorders.
When using a computer, as with many ac tivities , you may experi ence occasional discomfort in your hand s,
arms, shoulders, neck, or other pa rts of your body. However, if you exper ience symptoms such as per sistent
or recurring discomfor t, pain, thr obbing, aching, tingling, numbness, burning sens ation, or stiffness ,
DO NOT IGNORE TH ESE WARNING SIG NS. PROMPTLY SEE A QUALIFIED HEALTH PROFESSIONAL ,
even if symptoms occur when yo u are not workin g at your computer. Symptoms like these can be associated
with painful and sometime s permanently disabling injuries or disorders of the nerves, muscles, tendons, or
other par ts of the body. Thes e musculoskeletal disor ders (MSDs) include carpal tunnel syndr ome, tendonitis,
tenosynovitis, and other conditions.
While rese archers are not yet able to answer many questions about MSDs , there is general agreement that
many factors may be linked to their occurrence, including: ove rall health, stress and how one copes with it ,
medical an d physical conditions, and how a person positions and uses his or her body dur ing work and other
activities (including use of a keyboard or mouse). The amount of time a person performs an activit y may also
be a factor.

Some guidelines that may help you work more comfortabl y with your computer and possibly reduce your
risk of experiencing an MSD can be found in the “Healthy Computin g Guide” installed with this de vice’s
software. If this device did not come with software, see the “Healthy Computing Guide” secti on of this
manual. You can als o access the “He althy Computing Guide” at ww w.microsof t.com/hardware or (in the
United States only) by calling (800) 360-7561 to request a CD at no charge.
If you have questions about how your own lifest yle, acti vities, or medical, or physical condition may be
related to MSDs, see a quali ed health professional .
Devices with Laser Pointers
Caution Use of controls or adjustments, or perfo rmance of procedures othe r than those spe cied herein
may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
● Do not stare into beam.

or disorders described in the Health Warning earlier in this manual.
It only takes a moment to read, but the benets can be lasting.
For information about arranging your workstation and developing habits that may help to reduce your
risk of experiencing an MSD, re ad this “Healthy Computing Guide.” Because the re are a variet y of factor s
that may contribute to MSDs, this guide cannot provide ever ything you need to know to pre vent an MSD
or reduce your risk of experiencing one. For some people, following the suggestion s may reduce their risk
of experie ncing an MSD. For others, it may not. However, many people experien ce greater comf ort and
productivity when following th ese sugges tions. Keep in mind that this guide is not a substitute for the
advice of a qualied health pr ofessional or an employer health policy or program. If you have questions
about how your own lifestyle, activ ities, or medical or physic al condition may be related to MSDs, see a
qualied he alth profes sional.
Position Yourself
Whether you are working or playing, it is impo rtant to avoid awkward po stures and position your body
comfortably. Not only can this improve your ove rall produc tivity, it may help you avoid musculoskeletal
disorders (MSDs). Keep in mind th at changing your posture during extended tasks may also help you avoid
discomfor t and fatigue.
When working or playing at the computer, adapt your surroundings and arrange yo ur computing equipment
