DANGER:
Do not attempt to replace the internal rechargeable lithium ion battery. Contact Lenovo
Support for factory replacement.
CAUTION:
Excessive sound pressure from earphones and headphones can cause hearing loss.
Adjustment of the equalizer to maximum increases the earphone and headphone
output voltage and the sound pressure level. Therefore, to protect your hearing, adjust
the equalizer to an appropriate level.
Excessive use of headphones or earphones for a long period of time at high volume
can be dangerous if the output of the headphone or earphone connectors do not
comply with specifications of EN 50332-2.
The headphone output connector of your device complies with EN 50332-2 Sub
clause 7. This specification limits the device's maximum wide band true RMS output
voltage to 150 mV. To help protect against hearing loss, ensure that the headphones or
earphones you use also comply with EN 50332-2 (Clause 7 limits) for a wide band
characteristic voltage of 75 mV. Using headphones that do not comply with EN
50332-2 can be dangerous due to excessive sound pressure levels.

Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Declaration of Conformity
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following
two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device
must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired
operation.
This device has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital,
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 radiated radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communica-
tions. 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.
FCC Caution:
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance
could void the user‘s authority to operate the equipment.
FCC RF Exposure Information (SAR)
This device is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure
to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the
United States.
During SAR testing, this device is set to transmit at its highest certified power level in all
tested frequency bands, and placed in positions that simulate RF exposure in usage near
the body. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual
SAR level of the while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because
the device is designed to operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power
required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station
antenna, the lower the power output.
The exposure standard for wireless employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific
Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6W/kg.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model device with all reported
SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR
information on this model device is on file with the FCC and can be found under the
Display Grant section of www.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid after searching on FCC ID:
O57TAB2A8.
For this device, the highest reported SAR value for near the body is 1.32 W/kg.
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various devices and at various
positions, they all meet the government requirement.
