You have acquired a device (“DEVICE”) that includes software licensed by SYMBOL TECHNOLOGIES, INC. from Microsoft Licensing Inc. or its affiliates (“MS”). Those installed software products of MS origin, as well as associated media, printed materials, and “online” or electronic documentation (“SOFTWARE”) are protected by international intellectual property laws and treaties. The SOFTWARE is licensed, not sold. All rights reserved. SOFTWARE includes software already installed on the DEVICE (“DEVICE Software”) and MS software contained on the CD-ROM disk (“Companion CD”).

IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THIS END USER LICENSE AGREEMENT (“EULA”), DO NOT USE THE DEVICE OR COPY THE SOFTWARE. INSTEAD, PROMPTLY CONTACT SYMBOL TECHNOLOGIES, INC. FOR INSTRUCTIONS ON RETURN OF THE UNUSED DEVICE(S) FOR A REFUND. ANY USE OF THE SOFTWARE, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO USE ON THE

with the terms of the printed or online end user license agreement(s) provided with such component(s). In the absence of an end user license agreement for particular component(s) of the Companion CD, you may install and use only one (1) copy of such component(s) on the DEVICE or a single computer with which you use the DEVICE.

•Microsoft@ Outlook® 2002. If Microsoft Outlook 2002 is included with your DEVICE, the following terms apply to your use of Microsoft Outlook 2002: (i) regardless of the information contained in the “Software Installation and Use” section of the online EULA you may install one (1) copy of Microsoft Outlook 2002 on one (1) computer to use, exchange data, share data, access and interact with the DEVICE, and (ii) the EULA for Microsoft Outlook 2002 is between SYMBOL TECHNOLOGIES, INC. and the end user - not between the PC manufacturer and end user.

•Security Updates/Digital Rights Management. Content providers are using the digital rights management technology contained in this SOFTWARE (“DRM”) to protect the integrity of their content (“Secure Content”) so that their intellectual property, including copyright, in such content is not misappropriated. Portions of this SOFTWARE and third party applications such as media players use DRM to play Secure Content (“DRM Software”). If the DRM SOFTWARE's security has been compromised, owners of Secure Content (“Secure Content Owners”) may request that MS revoke the DRM Software's right to copy, display and/or play Secure Content. Revocation does not alter the DRM Software's ability to play unprotected content. A list of revoked DRM Software is sent to your computer whenever you download a license for Secure Content from the Internet. You therefore agree that MS may, in conjunction with such license, also download revocation lists onto your computer on behalf of Secure Content Owners. MS will not retrieve any personally identifiable information, or any other information, from your computer by downloading such revocation lists. Secure Content Owners may also require you to upgrade some of the DRM components in this SOFTWARE (“DRM Upgrades”) before accessing their content. When you attempt to play such content, MS DRM Software will notify you that a DRM Upgrade is required and then ask for your consent before the DRM Upgrade is downloaded. Third party DRM Software may do the same. If you decline the upgrade, you will not be able to access content that requires the DRM Upgrade; however, you will still be able to access unprotected content and Secure Content that does not require the upgrade.

DESCRIPTION OF OTHER RIGHTS AND LIMITATIONS.

•Speech/Handwriting Recognition. If the SOFTWARE includes speech and/or handwriting recognition component(s), you should understand that speech and handwriting recognition are inherently statistical processes and that errors can occur in the component's recognition of your handwriting, and the final conversion into text. Neither SYMBOL TECHNOLOGIES, INC. nor its suppliers shall be liable for any damages arising out of errors in the speech and handwriting recognition process.

•Limitations on Reverse Engineering, Decompilation and Disassembly. You may not reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the SOFTWARE, except and only to the extent that such activity is expressly permitted by applicable law notwithstanding this limitation.

Radio Frequency Interference Requirements

Note: 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.

Radio Transmitters (Part 15)

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

Radio Frequency Interference Requirements - Canada

This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.

Cet appareil numérique de la classe B est conforme à la norme NMB-003 du Canada.

Radio Transmitters

This device complies with RSS 210 of Industry & Science Canada. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

(1) this device may not cause harmful interference and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

Battery Information

Symbol rechargeable battery packs are designed and constructed to the highest standards within the industry. However, there are limitations to how long a battery can operate or be stored before needing replacement. Many factors affect the actual life cycle of a battery pack, such as heat, cold, harsh environmental conditions and severe drops. When batteries are stored over six (6) months, some irreversible deterioration in overall battery quality may occur. Store batteries discharged in a dry, cool place, removed from the equipment to prevent loss of capacity, rusting of metallic parts and electrolyte leakage. When storing batteries for one year or longer, they should be charged and discharged at least once a year. If an electrolyte leakage is observed, avoid any contact with affected area and properly dispose of the battery.

Replace the battery when a significant loss of run time is detected.

Standard warranty period for all Symbol batteries is 30 days, regardless if the battery was purchased separately or included as part of the mobile computer or bar code scanner. For more information on Symbol batteries, please visit: http:/mysymbolcare.symbol.com/battery/batbasics1.html
