Screen Protector
Zebra recommends the use of a screen protector to minimize
wear and tear. Screen protectors enhance the usability and
durability of touch screen displays. Benefits include:
• Protection from scratches and gouges
Not using a screen protector can affect your warranty coverage.
An initial screen protector is already applied to your MC45.
Contact your local account manager or Zebra, Inc. for more
information and purchasing details.

GPS Information
When using the GPS feature of the MC45:
Acquiring satellite signals may take a few minutes. It is best
•
to be outside and have a clear, unobstructed view of the sky.
Without a clear view, acquisition takes much longer and could
•
result in the MC45 being unable to compute the initial position
quickly.
Obtain a satellite fix before moving.
•
Shutdown GPS application when not in use to extend
•
battery life.
