Restriction on Hazardous Substances (ROHS) Directive 2002/95/ECWhat is RoHS?The European Union has mandated that high environmental stan-dards be met in the design and manufacture of electronic and elec-trical products sold in Europe, to reduce hazardous substances fromentering the environment. The “Restriction on Hazardous Sub-stances Directive (RoHS)” prescribes the maximum trace levels oflead, cadmium, mercury, hexavalent chromium, and flame retardantsPBB and PBDE that may be contained in a product. Only productsmeeting these high environmental standards may be “placed on themarket” in EU member states after July 1, 2006.RoHS LogoAlthough there is no legal requirement to mark RoHS-compliantproducts, Psion Inc. indicates its compliance with the directive as fol-lows: The RoHS logo located either on the back of the product or under-neath the battery in the battery compartment (or on a related acces-sory such as the charger or docking station) signifies that theproduct is RoHS-compliant as per the EU directive. Other than asnoted below, a Psion product that does not have an accompanyingRoHS logo signifies that it was placed on the EU market prior toJuly 1, 2006, and is thereby exempt from the directive.Note: Not all accessories or peripherals will have a RoHS logo due to physical space limitations or as a result of their exempt status.

Reg ulator y Sum ma r y FCC Information to UserFederal Communication Commission Interference StatementThis 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 reason- able protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment gen- erates, 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 televi-sion reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one 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.This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is sub-ject to the following two conditions:
6 8516 Vehicle-Mount & Accessories Regulatory & Warranty Guide1. this device may not cause interference, and 2. this device must accept any interference, including inter-ference that may cause undesired operation of the device.Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie Canada appli-cables aux appareils radio exempts de licence. L'exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes: 1. l'appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et 2. l'utilisateur de l'appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radi-oélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible d'en compromettre le fonctionnement. FCC Caution: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsi- ble for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment.Important: FCC Radiation Exposure StatementSome equipment in hospitals and aircraft are not shielded from radio fre- quency energy. Do not use the 8516 onboard aircraft, or in hospitals, without first obtaining permission.Do not use near pacemakers. The product may affect the operation of some medically implanted devices such as pacemakers, causing them to malfunc- tion. Avoid placing your product next to such devices. Keep a minimum dis- tance of 20 cm between the device and the product to reduce the risk of interfer-ence. If you have any reason to suspect that inter-ference is taking place, turn off the 8516 and contact your cardiologist for assistance.Note: In August 1996 the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the US adopted an updated safety standard for human exposure to radio frequency energy emitted by FCC regulated transmitters. The design of this product complies with the FCC guidelines and those standards. To maintain
8516 Vehicle-Mount & Accessories Regulatory & Warranty Guide 7compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines, ensure the antenna is at least 20 cm from your body when transmitting.IMPORTANT NOTE:Emissions Information for CanadaThis Class B digital apparatus meets all requirements of the Cana-dian Interference-Causing Equipment Regulations. When using the 802.11 radio option, to prevent radio interference, this device is intended to be operated indoors and away from windows to provide maximum shielding. Equipment (or its transmit antenna) that is installed outdoors is subject to licensing.Cet appareil numérique de la classe B respecte toutes les exigences du Règlement sur le ma- tériel brouilleur du Canada. En cas d'utilisa-tion du module radio 802.11, afin d'éviter toute interférence radio avec le service autorisé, l'appareil doit être utilisé à l'intérieur, tout en tant éloigné de toute fenêtre afin de garantir le maximum de pro-tection. Si cet équipement (ou son antenne émettrice) est installé à l'extérieur, il est alors soumis à licence.Emissions Information for South Korea:Class B Equipment (Residential Use)Warning for AustraliaThe user needs to switch off the device when exposed to areas with potentially explosive atmospheres such as petrol stations, chemical storage depots and blasting operations.이 기기는 가정용(B급) 전자파적합기기로서 주로 가정에서 사용하는 것을 목적으로 하며,모든 지역에서 사용할 수 있습니다.
