Information to the User

This product and your Health

This product, like other radio devices, emits radio frequency electromagnetic energy.

The level of energy emitted by this product however is far much less than the electro-

magnetic energy emitted by wireless devices like for example mobile phones.

Because this product operates within the guidelines found in radio frequency safety

standards and recommendations, we believe this product is safe for use by consum-

ers. These standards and recommendations reect the consensus of the scientic

community and result from deliberations of panels and committees of scientists who

continually review and interpret the extensive research literature.

In some situations or environments, the use of this product may be restricted by the

proprietor of the building or responsible representatives of the organization. These

situations may for example include:

Cet appareil (pour réseaux locaux radioélectriques) dans les bandes de fréquences

5150-5250 MHz est réservé à une utilisation à l’intérieur an de réduire le risque

d’interférence avec les systèmes satellites mobiles bicanaux.

Les radars forte puissance sont désignés comme étant les premiers utilisateurs (c’est-

à-dire qu’ils ont la priorité) des bandes de fréquences 5250-5350 MHz et 5650-5850

MHz. Ces stations radars peuvent provoquer des interférences et/ou des dommages

à ce périphérique.

30-Ca-2-1

This device has been designed to operate with the WWAN antenna having a maxi-

mum gain of 1.50 dB for the cellular band and 3.50 dB for the PCS band. WWAN

antenna having a higher gain is strictly prohibited per regulations of Industry Canada.

The Required antenna impedance is 50 ohms.

To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain

should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (EIRP) is not

more than that required for successful communication.

Cet appareil est conçu pour opérer avec une antenne WWAN (réseau étendu sans l)

dont le gain maximum est xé à 1.50 pour la bande cellulaire et à 3.50 pour la bande

de service de communications personnelles (PCS). Les règlements d’Industrie Cana-

da interdisent l’utilisation d’une antenne WWAN dont le gain serait supérieur à cette

limite. L’antenne doit avoir une impédance de 50 ohms.

An de réduire le risque d’interférence radioélectrique aux autres utilisateurs des

bandes de fréquences, le type d’antenne et son gain doivent être tels que la puis-

sance isotrope rayonnée équivalente (PIRE) n’est pas plus élevée que le niveau

requis pour assurer la communication.

Getting Started

A lithium ion battery that is recyclable powers the product

you have purchased.

Please call 1-800-8-BATTERY for information on how to

recycle this battery.

L’appareil que vous vous êtes procuré est alimenté par

une batterie au lithium-ion.

Pour des renseignements sur le recyclage de la batterie,

veuillez composer le 1-800-8-BATTERY 48-M-1

the rst time. When the AC adaptor is

connected to the computer, charging

begins automatically.

Should the battery leak and the uid

get into your eyes, do not rub your

eyes. Immediately ush your eyes with

clear water and see a doctor for medi-

cal treatment as soon as possible.

NOTE

l The battery pack may become

warm during recharging or normal

use. This is completely normal.

l Recharging will not commence if

internal temperature of the battery

pack is outside of the allowable

temperature range (0 °C to 50 °C

{32°F to 122 °F}).

(è Reference Manual “Battery

Power”) Once the allowable range

requirement is satised, charging

begins automatically. Note that the

recharging time varies based on the

usage conditions. (Recharging

takes longer than usual when the

temperature is 10 °C {50 °F} or

below.)

l In high-temperature environments,

the battery takes longer to fully

recharge and the operating time is

shorter. Only use the computer

within the allowable temperature

range.

l This computer has a high tempera-

ture mode function that prevents

the degradation of the battery in

high temperature environments.

(è Reference Manual “Battery

Power”) A level corresponding to a

100% charge for high temperature

mode is approximately equivalent to

an 80% charge level for normal

temperature mode.

l The battery pack is a consumable

item. If the amount of time the

computer can be run by using a

particular battery pack becomes

dramatically shorter and repeated

recharging does not restore its

performance, the battery pack

should be replaced with a new one.

l When transporting a spare battery

inside a package, briefcase, etc., it

is recommended that it be placed in

a plastic bag so that its contacts are

protected.

l Always power off the computer

when it is not in use. Leaving the

computer on when the AC adaptor

is not connected will exhaust the

remaining battery capacity.

CAUTION:

Risk of Explosion if Battery is replaced

by an Incorrect Type.

Dispose of Used Batteries According

to the Instructions.

58-E-1

ATTENTION:

Il y a risque d’explosion si la batterie

est remplacée par une batterie de

type incorrect.
