Power Conservation This handheld computer consumes less power compared to conventional consumer computers. The power consumption may be further reduced by properly configuring the Power Management Setup. It is recommended that the power saving features be enabled even when not running on battery power. Power Management features can conserve power without degrading system performance. Power Safety There are specific power requirements for your handheld computer:  Only use an approved AC adapter designed for this handheld computer.  There is a 3-prong grounded plug for the AC adapter. The 3rd prong is an important mechanism for ensuring product safety. Please do not neglect the importance of this mechanism. If you are unable to access a compatible outlet, please hire a qualified electrician to install a compatible outlet for you.  When unplugging the AC power cord, please make sure to disconnect the cord by pulling from the plug head instead of pulling from the wire to prevent wire damage.  Make sure the power outlet and any other extension cord(s) you use can support the total current load of all the connected devices.  Before cleaning the handheld computer, please make sure it is disconnected from any external power source. WarningBeforeanyupgradeprocedures,makesurethepoweristurnedoff,andallthecablesaredisconnected.Also,itisadvisabletoremoveyourbatterytopreventyourhandheldcomputerfromaccidentallyturningon.
Battery Precautions  Only use batteries designed for this handheld computer. Using incompatible battery types may cause explosion, leakage or damage to the computer.  Do not remove the battery from the computer while the computer is powered on.  Do not continuously use a battery that has been dropped, or that appears damaged (e.g. bent or twisted) in any way. Even if the computer is able to continuously work with a damaged battery, the circuit damage may occur and possibly cause fire.  Always use the charger designed for this computer to recharge the battery. Incorrect recharging may cause the battery to explode.  Do not try to service a battery by yourself. For battery service or replacement, please contact your service representatives.  Please dispose of damaged battery promptly and carefully. Explosion or leakage may occur, if the battery is exposed to fire, improperly handled or discarded. BatteryDisposal&CautionTheproductthatyouhavepurchasedcontainsarechargeablebattery.Thebatteryisrecyclable.Attheendofitsservicelife,undervariousstateandlocallaws,itmaybeillegaltodisposeofthisbatteryintothemunicipalwastestream.Checkwithyourlocalsolidwasteofficialsfordetailsinyourareaforrecyclingoptionsorproperdisposal.Dangerofexplosionmaypossiblyoccur,ifthebatteryisincorrectlyreplaced.Replaceonlywiththesameortheequivalentbatteryrecommendedbythemanufacturer.Discardtheusedbatteryaccordingtothemanufacturer’sinstructions.
