Regulatory Compliance Statements

FCC Warning Statement

This device 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 with radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference with 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:

i

unitech is a registered trademark of unitech Electronics Co., Ltd.

–Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

ii

Battery Notice

1. To guarantee optimal performance, it is recommended that rechargeable batteries be replaced every year, or after 500 charging cycles are completed. It is normal for the battery to balloon or expand after one year or 500 cycles. Although it does not cause damage, it cannot be used again and must be disposed of according to the location's safe battery disposal procedures.

2. If a battery performance decreases more than 20%, the battery is at the end of its life cycle. Stop use and ensure the battery is disposed of properly.

3. The length of time that a battery lasts depends on the battery type and how the device is used. Conserve the battery life by doing the following:

 Avoid fully uncharging the battery because this places additional

strain on it. Several partial uncharges with frequent charges are better than a fully uncharged battery. Charging a partially charged battery does not cause harm to the unit.

 Keep the battery cool. Avoid hot vehicles. For prolonged

storage, keep the battery at a 40% charge level.

 Do not leave the battery uncharged and unused for an extended

period of time, the battery will wear out and the longevity of the battery will be at least half of one with frequent charges.

4. Protect battery life by not over or under charging the battery.

5. Please do not leave battery unused for long time without charging it. Despite unitech’s safety precautions, the battery pack may begin to change shape. If so, stop using it immediately. Please check to see if you are using a proper power adapter to charge the battery or contact your service provider for service.

6. If you cannot charge the battery after it has been idle for an extended period of time and it begins to heat up, please do not try to charge it. It may not be functional anymore.

7. Please only use the original battery from unitech. Using a third party battery can damage our products. Please note that when such damage occurs, it is not covered by unitech’s warranty policy.

Battery charge notice

It is important to consider temperature when the battery pack is charging. Charging is most efficient at normal room temperature or in a slightly cooler environment. It is essential that batteries are charged within the stated range of 0°C to 40°C. Charging batteries outside of the specified range could damage the batteries and shorten their life cycle.

CAUTION! Do not charge batteries at a temperature lower than 0°C. This will

and make the batteries unstable and dangerous. Please use a battery temperature detecting device for a charger to ensure a safe charging temperature range.

Storage and safety notice

Although charged batteries may be left unused for several months, their capacity may be depleted due to build up of internal resistance. If this happens, they will require recharging prior to use. Batteries may be stored at temperatures between -20°C to 60°C, however they may deplete more rapidly at higher temperatures. It is recommended to store batteries at room temperature.

* The message above only applies to the usage of the removable batteries.

For the products with non-removable batteries / without batteries, please refer to the specification of each product.
