This device may not cause harmful interference;2. This device must accept any interference received, includ-ing interference that may cause undesired operation.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. 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 and correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful CAUTION!Exposure to Radio Frequency Radiation. The radiated output of this device is far below the FCC radio frequency exposure limits. Nevertheless, the device shall be used in such a manner that the potential for human contact during normal opera-tion is minimized. When connecting an external antenna to the device, the antenna shall be placed in such a manner to minimize the potential for human con-tact during normal operation. In order to avoid the possibility of exceeding the FCC radio frequency exposure limits, human proximity to the antenna shall not be less than 20cm (8inches) during normal opera-tion.

S10A User ManualivSafety InstructionsUse the following safety guidelines to help protect yourself and S10A.• Do not attempt to service the S10A yourself. Always follow installation instructions closely.• Be sure that nothing rests on the AC adapter's power cable and that the cable is not located where it can be tripped over or stepped on.• Do not cover the AC adaptor with papers or other items that will reduce cooling; also, do not use the AC adapter while it is inside a carrying case.• Use only the AC adapter, power cord, and batteries that are approved for use with this S10A. Use of another type of battery or AC adapter may cause risk of fire or explosion.• If you use an extension cable with the AC adapter, ensure that the total ampere rating of the products plugged in to the extension cable does not exceed the ampere rating of the extension cable.• When you move the S10A between environments with very different temperature and/ore humidity ranges, condensation may form on or within the S10A. To avoid damaging the S10A, allow sufficient time for the moisture to evaporate before using the S10A.• When you disconnect a cable, pull on its connector or on its strain relief loop, not on the cable itself. As you pull out the connector, keep it evenly aligned to avoid bending any connector pins. Also, before you connect a cable make sure both connectors are correctly oriented and aligned.CAUTION: To reduce the risk of fire, use only No.26 AWG or larger (e.g., 24 AWG) UL Listed or CSA Certified Telecommunication Line Cord.

Use of another battery may present a risk of fire or explosion.• Dispose of used batteries according to local disposal regulations. Keep away from children. Do not disassemble and do not dispose of in a fire.Battery Charge NoticeIt is important to consider the environment temperature whenever you are charging the Lithium-Ion battery pack. The process is more efficient at normal room temperature or slightly cooler. It is essential that you charge batteries within the stated range of 0°C to 50°C. Charging batteries outside of the specified range could damage the batteries and shorten their charging life cycle.
S10A User ManualviStorage and Safety NoticeAlthough charge Lithium-Ion batteries may be left unused for several months, their capacity may be depleted due to the build up of internal resistance. If this happens they will require recharging prior to use. Lithium-Ion batteries may be stored at temperatures between -20°C to 50°C, however they may be depleted more rapidly at the high end of this range. It is recommended to store batteries within normal room temperature ranges.
