When the computer is running or charging, heat is produced inside the Netbook and
transferred to the back of the chassis by the heat dissipation system for cooling. The
transformer may also produce a lot of heat during normal use as well. The Netbook
and its transformer should therefore not be placed in the lap or on any other body part
for prolonged periods during use. Also avoid placing the Netbook on a soft surface
(e.g. sofa) as it might block the heat vents and interfere with cooling.

Federal Communications Commission Statement
This device complies with FCC Rules Part 15. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions:
• This device may not cause harmful interference, and
• This device must accept any interference received, including 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 Federal Communications Commission (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 to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. 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 to correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver
is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
The use of a shielded-type power cord is required in order to meet FCC emission limits and
to prevent interference to the nearby radio and television reception. It is essential that only
the supplied power cord be used. Use only shielded cables to connect I/O devices to this
equipment. You are cautioned that changes or modifications not expressly approved by the
party responsible for compliance could void your authority to operate the equipment.
Note:
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user’s authority to operate this equipment. “The manufacture
declares that this device is limited to Channels 1 through 11 in the 2.4GHz frequency by
specified firmware controlled in the USA.”
RF exposure warning
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled
environment. The equipment must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any
other antenna or transmitter. The measured SAR levels evaluated are in compliance with
the FCC RF exposure guidelines.
