introduction
Welcome to the OQO model 02 computer. The model 02 is a
full-featured Windows XP computer that gives you the total
productivity you need to fulfill your personal and professional
requirements.
mobility
The model 02 is the world’s smallest Windows Vista™
Capable computer. Its mobile form factor allows you to take it
anywhere and its ergonomic design facilitates usability on the
go. Because the model 02 uses the Windows XP operating
system, you have uncompromised access to software
applications and seamless connectivity – anytime, anywhere
– via WiFi, Ethernet, Bluetooth®, or Wireless Wide Area
Network (WWAN) technology.
flexibility
While you’re on the go, the model 02 is your standalone,
handheld computer with its own integrated keyboard, track
stick, and capacitive TouchScrollers. The rugged, magnesium
alloy chassis with shock mounted hard drive and active drop
detect technology helps protect your data in the event your
model 02 is dropped. At the office, the model 02 functions
as your desktop computer connected to an external monitor,
keyboard, and mouse. Also available is an array of accessories
and a docking station that provides additional usage modes.

Your model 02 ships with a screen protector and battery
attached.
To turn on your model 02, press the power button located on
the left side of the computer. When idle, conserve battery
power by putting your computer in Standby or Hibernate mode.
To charge the battery, connect the power supply to the model
02 as shown at right, and then plug into an outlet. The battery
will charge whenever the computer is connected to an outlet.
standby mode
Standby mode reduces the power consumption of your
computer by cutting power to non-critical hardware
components. The system maintains power to your computer’s
random access memory (RAM), which allows the system to
quickly restore your active applications and files.
To put your computer into Standby mode, press the power
button.
hibernate mode
Hibernate mode saves your current system state to the
hard disk drive and then powers down your computer. When
you power up again, your open files and applications are re-
stored just as you left them. Hibernate mode draws no power
and is best for conserving battery life and changing batteries.
To put your computer into Hibernate mode, select ‘Shut Down’
from the Start menu and choose the ‘Hibernate’ option or
press the ‘H’ key on your keyboard.
conserving battery power
Additional ways to conserve battery power include:
Turn off wireless radios when not in use.

FCC Statement
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 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. 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 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 technician for help.
The highest SAR value for the computer when next to the
body, as described in this user guide, is 1.17 W/kg. No
1)
2)
3)
4)
separation from the body is required when the wireless
computer is in operation, as the SAR measurements were
taken with the unit “touching” the surface of the body.
This device was tested for SAR compliance in the lap held
configuration. If the device is purchased with the WWAN
option, a whip antenna is utilized for WWAN coverage. When
operating in WWAN mode, the whip antenna should be pulled
out and up to the vertical position. In order to comply with
FCC RF exposure requirements, and to align with the SAR test
configuration, users must maintain a separation distance of
1.5 cm between the antenna and all persons, and maintain the
antenna in the vertical position during WWAN operation.
This Class [B] digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-
003. Cet appareil numérique de la class [B] est conformé à la
norme NMB-003 du Canada.
The IEEE 802.11a device for the band 5150-5250 MHz is only
for indoor usage, to reduce the potential for harmful interfer-
ence to co-channel mobile satellite systems.
Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved
by OQO for compliance will void the user’s authority to operate
the equipment.
FCC Radio Frequency Exposure and SAR
The available scientific evidence does not show that any
health problems are associated with using low power wireless
devices. There is no proof, however, that low power wireless
devices are absolutely safe.
The exposure standard for low power wireless devices em-
ploys a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption
Rate, or SAR. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard op-
erating positions accepted by the FCC and by Industry Canada
with the device transmitting at its highest certified power level
in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined
at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the
device while operating can be well below the maximum value.
This is because the device is designed to operate at the mini-
mum power level required to reach the network.
Before a low power wireless device is available for sale to the
public in the US and Canada it must be tested and certified
to the FCC and the Industry Canada that it does not exceed
the limit established by each government for safe exposure.
The personal computer (OQO model 02) has been tested and
found to comply with the Federal Communications Committee
guidelines on radio frequency (RF) energy exposure.
Industry Canada
This Class [B] digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-
003. Cet appareil numérique de la classe [B] est conformé à
la norme NMB-003 du Canada. The term IC before the radio
certification number only signifies that Industry Canada techni-
cal specifications were met.
