1.2 Batteries
1.2.1 Batteries
Battery types
The iPAD has a main battery and a backup battery.
Main battery: The main battery is used to back up the contents of memory during
normal operation and in suspend mode.
Backup battery: The backup battery is used to preserve the contents of memory if the
main battery loses its charge or the main battery is being replaced.
Guidelines on battery life
1. Main battery
As a guideline, the life of the main battery is either about 500 chargings and
dischargings or two years.
The more a battery is used, the shorter the time it will last. The life of the main battery
has expired if it loses its charge in a very short time after being fully charged. When
this happens, replace the main battery with a new one.
Main battery life and its ability to hold a charge is affected by the ambient temperature
and age. The battery life may be less than 500 charges and discharges if it is used or
stored in very high temperatures or low temperatures for extended periods of time; or
if the battery is more than two years old.
2. Backup battery
The backup battery is used temporarily to retain data while the main battery is being
replaced.
The backup battery is embedded in the main unit and must be replaced by a factory
authorized repair agency.
Message screen
When the battery charge falls below a certain level, a message prompting you to recharge
the battery appears on the LCD. This message must be cleared by the operator. You
should recharge the main battery when you get a ‘Low Battery’ message.
Checking the battery status
You can check the status of the battery and the remaining battery charge.
(Reference Section 3.2, "Checking the Battery Status").

5 Wireless LAN (local area network)
The iPAD is designed to use an internal LAN radio as its primary means of communicating
data when used as an end-node device within a wireless LAN.
The iPAD is purpose built to use an 802.11b WiFi spread-spectrum radio that operates in the
2.4 GHz band. This does not require a license for operation. The iPAD requires a compact
flash radio card. The integration of an 802.11b WiFi spread spectrum radio allows the iPAD to
interactively communicate in real-time with its host/server environment via a wireless local
area network.
In a store environment, the iPAD can communicate within a radius of 16 to 66 ft. (or greater)
from a wireless LAN access point. (The range of communication may vary significantly
depending on the environment of the facility. In a semi-open space, communication can occur
from 98 to 164 ft. or greater)
CAUTION
• The iPAD may not be able to
communicate if it is used near a
microwave oven, security gate, or
other device that generates noise.
• Use the iPAD away from a TV set,
radio, or another wireless device.

11 Correctly Using the iPAD
11.1 Using the Main Battery
To prevent deterioration, do not store the main battery for a long time when it is fully
charged. For long-term storage, remove the battery from the iPAD when it is about 50%
charged and store it at room temperature.
If the battery has not been used for a long time, recharge it.
Be careful not to short-circuit the battery terminals with a necklace or other metallic object.
Do not heat the battery or throw it into a fire.
Do not leave the battery in a car exposed to sunlight or in direct sunlight.
Do not allow the battery to become wet.
Do not apply a strong shock to the battery. Do not drop the battery.
Using the iPAD at low temperatures (below 50oF)
o At low temperatures (below 50oF), the iPAD does not operate as long as it does at
room temperature. In an environment of 50oF, operating time is about 70% of that at
room temperature, and in an environment of 32oF, it is about 50% (new battery used).
o If operation in a low-temperature environment is possible, review charging procedures
and operation.
o In operation at low temperatures (below 50oF), replacing the battery with one that is
only partially charged will result in a very short operating time. Be sure to replace the
battery with a fully charged one.
o Keep a spare battery warm until you use it by, for example, putting it in your pocket. If
you warm a battery with a body warmer, be careful that the battery does not come into
direct contact with the body warmer.
If a message indicating that charging is required (battery status message) is displayed,
promptly charge the battery or replace the battery with a spare battery.
Be careful that no dust, sand, or other foreign matter enters the terminal section while you
are using the iPAD. If any foreign matter gets in, completely remove it using a soft-tipped
cotton swab or gauze, then repeat several times inserting the iPAD into the charger or
device and then removing it.
The iPAD may not charge if the terminals are dirty.
Despite complete charging, the battery naturally discharges little by little as time passes.
If possible, charge the battery again just before using it (within one or two days).
Store the battery in as cool a place as possible and charge it at an ambient temperature of
50oF to 86oF. Doing so will increase the life of the battery.
11.2 Using the Backup battery
Backup battery alarm message
A warning message appears in the center of the screen if the voltage of the backup
battery drops or the backup battery is not connected. The programs and data in memory
will be lost if you replace the main battery while this message is displayed.
Immediately charge the backup battery.
Reference: For information about charging the backup battery, see Section 1.2.4,
"Charging the backup battery."
iPAD Operations Guide
Copyright 2003 by Fujitsu Transaction Solutions Inc. Confidential 42
11.3 Long-term Storage
Store the iPAD where it will not be exposed to vibration, dust, high and low
temperatures, high humidity, and direct sunlight.
Storing the iPAD with the programs saved
To avoid discharging of the main and backup batteries, charge the main battery once
every week. Without charging, the programs and data in memory will be lost.
Storing the iPAD without the programs saved
To store the iPAD without the programs saved, remove the main battery and completely
reset the iPAD.
Reference: For information about removing the battery, see Section 1.2.3," Installing and
removing the main battery," and Section 1.2.4, "Charging the backup battery."
For information about completely resetting the iPAD, see Section 3.7.2,
"Completely resetting the iPAD."
11.4 Cleaning
Clean the cover of the iPAD using a cloth moistened with a solution of water and neutral
detergent or a dry cloth. If you use a damp cloth, be sure to wring it out thoroughly to
prevent water from getting into the iPAD, causing a malfunction.
Do not wipe the iPAD using thinner, benzine, or other volatile solvents. Such materials can
discolor the iPAD or erase printed characters.
Wipe the display area of the iPAD using a cloth slightly moistened with water or a glass
wipe with a very fine texture.
Occasionally clean the cradle interface using a dry cotton swab or gauze. If the terminals
become dirty, contact may be poor, causing the iPAD to turn off or to disable normal
charging and communication.
11.5 Other precautions
Do not disassemble or modify the iPAD.
To prevent the iPAD from malfunctioning, do not leave the iPAD, even for a short time,
where it is exposed to any of the following conditions:
o Extreme heat (for example, car in sunlight with the windows closed)
o Direct sunlight
o Extreme cold
o Dust
o Strong vibration
o Humidity
Do not apply a strong shock to the iPAD. Do not drop the iPAD.
Be careful not expose the iPAD for long periods of time in a high-temperature environment
(95oF or higher). Doing so may result in a low-temperature burn.

CAUTION
GENERAL
INHIBITION
• Turn off the iPAD before cleaning it.
• Do not clean the iPAD using a damp or
chemically treated cloth, and do not use
thinner or other volatile chemical. Doing
so may cause the iPAD to malfunction.
GENERAL
CAUTION
• Do not remove the battery without
turning off the iPAD.
• Do not unplug the AC adapter or single-
pack charger until charging has been
completed. Doing so may cause the
battery to be improperly charged.
• Do not apply a strong shock to the
iPAD. Do not drop the iPAD.
• Although the iPAD is resistant to
breakage for ordinary operations (for
example, putting it on a desk), Fujitsu
recommends that users use a neck
strap so that the iPAD cannot be
accidentally dropped.
• Do not carry the iPAD in your hip
pocket. Sitting down with the iPAD in
your hip pocket may break the display
unit.
• Because the fluorescent tubes in the
liquid crystal display (LCD) used in the
iPAD contain mercury, dispose of the
LCD in accordance with any local laws
and regulations.
• Dispose of the main battery in
accordance with any local laws and
regulations after insulating the battery
terminals with tape or other means to
prevent a short circuit.
