warnings and instructions marked on the product.
Turning the product off before cleaning
Unplug this product from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or
aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.
WARNINGS
Accessing the power plug
Be sure that the power outlet you plug the power cord into is easily accessible and located
as close to the equipment operator as possible. When you need to disconnect power to the
equipment, be sure to unplug the power plug from the electrical outlet. Mark sure the power
plug is fixed at right position with the adaptor before plugging to the socket on the wall.
Input rating: Refer to the rating label on the bottom of the computer and ensure that your
power adapter complies with the specified rating.
Under no circumstances should the user attempt to disassemble the power supply. The
power supply has no user-replaceable parts. Inside the power supply are hazardous
voltages that can cause serious personal injury.
A defective power supply must be returned to your dealer.
Using electrical power
- If an extension cord is used with this product, make sure that the total ampere rating
of the equipment plugged into the extension cord does not exceed the extension
cord ampere rating. Also, make sure that the total rating of all products plugged into
the wall outlet does not exceed the fuse rating.
- Do not overload a power outlet, strip or receptacle by plugging in too many devices.
The overall system load must not exceed 80% of the branch circuit rating. If power
strips are used, the load should not exceed 80% of the power strip's input rating.
General
- Do not use this product near water.
- Do not place this product on an unstable cart, stand or table. If the product falls, it
could be seriously damaged.
- Slots and openings are provided for ventilation to ensure reliable operation of the
product and to protect it from overheating.
These openings must not be blocked or covered. The openings should never be blocked
by placing the product on a be d, sofa, rug or other similar surface. This product should never
be placed near or over a radiator or heat register, or in a built-in installation unless proper
ventilation is provided.
- Never push objects of any kind into this product through cabinet slots as they may
touch dangerous voltage points or shortout parts that could result in a fire or electric
shock. Never spill liquid of any kind onto or into the product.
- To avoid damage of internal components and to prevent battery leakage, do not
place the product on a vibrating surface.
- Your device and its enhancements may contain small parts. Keep them out of the
reach of small children.

REGULATORY INFORMATION
CAUTION when listening
To protect your hearing, follow these instructions.
- Increase the volume gradually until you can hear clearly and
comfortably.
- Do not increase the volume level after your ears have adjusted.
- Do not listen to music at high volumes for extended periods.
- Do not increase the volume to block out noisy surroundings.
- Decrease the volume if you can’t hear people speaking near you.
Prevention of hearing loss
Caution: Permanent hearing loss may occur if earphones or
headphones are used at high volume for prolonged periods of time.
This device has been tested to comply with the Sound Pressure Level
requirement laid down in the applicable EN 50332-1 and/or EN 50332-2
standards.
Note: For France, mobile headphones or earphones for this device have been
tested to comply with the Sound Pressure requirement laid down in the
applicable NF EN 50332-1:2000 and/or NF EN 50332-2:2003 standards as
required by French Article L. 5232-1.
WIRELESS ADAPTER REGULATORY INFORMATION
Use On Aircraft
Caution: Regulations of the FCC and FAA prohibit airborne operation of
radio-frequency wireless devices(wireless adapters) because their
signals could interfere with critical interfere with critical aircraft
instruments.
The Wireless Adapter and Your Health
The wireless adapter, like other radio devices, emits radio frequency electromagnetic
energy. The level of energy emitted by the wireless adapter, however, is less than the
electromagnetic energy emitted by other wireless devices such as mobile phones. The
wireless adapter operates within the guidelines found in radio frequency safety standards
and recommendations.
These standards and recommendations reflect the consensus of the scientific 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 the wireless adapter may be restricted by the proprietor of the building or responsible
representatives of the applicable organization.
Examples of such situations may include:
- Using the wireless adapter on board airplanes, or
- Using the wireless adapter in any other environment where the risk of interference
with other devices or services is perceived or identified as being harmful.
If you are uncertain of the policy that applies to the use of wireless adapters in a specific
organization or environment (an airport, for example), you are encouraged to ask for
authorization to use the adapter before you turn it on.
SAR information
RF exposure information (SAR)
This device meets the EU requirements (1999/519/EC) on the limitation of exposure of the
general public to electromagnetic fields by way of health protection. The limits are part of
extensive recommendations for the protection of the general public. These
recommendations have been developed and checked by independent scientific
organizations through regular and thorough evaluations of scientific studies. To guarantee
the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health, the limits include a significant safety
buffer.
Before radio devices can be put in circulation, their agreement with European laws or limits
must be confirmed; only then may the CE symbol be applied.
The unit of measurement for the European Council's recommended limit for mobile devices
is the "Specific Absorption Rate" (SAR). This SAR limit is 2.0 W/kg, averaged over 10 g of
body tissue. It meets the requirements of the International Commission on Non-Ionizing
Radiation Protection (ICNIRP). The maximum SAR value is calculated at the highest output
level in all frequency bands of the mobile device. The highest SAR value reported under
this standard during product certification for use of the device at a distance of 0 cm from
the body.
During use, the actual SAR level is usually much lower than the maximum value, because
the mobile device works in different output levels. It only transmits with as much output as
is required to reach the network. In general the following applies: The closer you are to a
base station, the lower the transmission output of your mobile device.
