These recommendations are consistent with independent research and recommendations by
Wireless Technology Research.
Persons with Pacemakers:
• Should ALWAYS keep the device more than 15cm (6 inches) from their pacemaker when turned ON.
• Should not carry the device in a breast pocket.
• Should use the ear furthest from the pacemaker to minimise the potential for inter¬ference.
• If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, turn OFF your device.

Batteries
Taiwan - Recycling
EPA (Environmental Protection Administration) requires dry battery producing or importing rms in
accordance with Article 15 of the Waste Disposal Act are required to indicate the recycling marks
on the batteries used in sales, giveaway or promotion. Contact a qualied Taiwanese recycler for proper
battery disposal.
Battery Information
Zebra 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 aect 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 at half of full charge 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, the charge
level should be veried at least once a year and charged to half of full charge. Replace the battery when
a signicant loss of run time is detected. Standard warranty period for batteries is 30 days,
regardless if the battery was purchased separately or included as part of the mobile computer or bar
code scanner.

Battery Safety Guidelines
• The area in which the units are charged should be clear of debris and combustible materials or chemicals.
Particular care should be taken where the device is charged in a non commercial environment.
• Follow battery usage, storage, and charging guidelines found in the user's guide.
• Improper battery use may result in a re, explosion, or other hazard.
• To charge the mobile device battery, the battery and charger temperatures must be between +32 ºF
and +104 ºF (0 ºC and +40 ºC)
• Do not use incompatible batteries and chargers. Use of an incompatible battery or charger may present
a risk of re, explosion, leakage, or other hazard. If you have any questions about the compatibility of a
battery or a charger, contact Zebra Global Customer Support Center.
• For devices that utilize a USB port as a charging source, the device shall only be connected to products
that bear the USB-IF logo or have completed the USB-IF compliance program.
• Do not disassemble or open, crush, bend or deform, puncture, or shred.
• Severe impact from dropping any battery-operated device on a hard surface could cause the battery
