1.2 User and Product Safety
l Do not stare into the laser or LED beam directly or shine it into eyes.
l Never use strong pressure onto the screen or subject it to severe impact, as the
LCD panel could become cracked and possibility cause personal injury. If the
LCD panel is broken, never touch the liquid inside because the liquid irritates the
skin.
l Although the PDT has passed the test of IP54 standard for water and dust
resistance, avoid prolonged exposure to rain or other concentrated moisture.
Such condition exceeds the IP54 standard, and could result in water or other
contaminants entering into the PDT.
l Use only the original approved AC Adapter with the PDT. Use of an unapproved
AC Adapter could result in electrical problems, or even cause a fire or electrical
shock to the user.
l Do not disassemble the PDT. Servicing should be done by supplier only. If the
PDT or accessories gets damaged due to wrong handling or unauthorized repair,
warranty is void. In case the warranty seals are broken, warranty is void too.
l Make regularly back-ups of all important data.
l Under no circumstance will supplier be liable for any direct, indirect,
consequential or incidental damages baring out of the use or inability to use the
hardware and software and/or any data loss, even if supplier has been informed
about the possibility of such damages.

1.3 Battery Safety
Lithium-ion battery packs might get hot, explode, ignite and/or cause serious injury if
exploded by abusive using. Please follow the safety warnings listed as below:
l Do not throw the battery pack in fire. Do not expose the battery to high
temperatures.
l Do not connect the positive battery pack with negative battery pack to each other
with any metal object (like wire).
l Do not carry or store battery pack together with metal objects.
l Do not pierce the battery pack with nails or drills, strike the battery pack with a
hammer, step on the battery pack or otherwise expose it to strong impacts,
shocks or excessive force.
l Do not solder onto the battery pack.
l Do not expose battery pack to liquid or allow the battery contacts to get wet.
l Do not disassemble or modify the battery pack. The battery pack contains safety
and protection measures, which, if damaged, may cause the battery pack to
generate heat, explode or ignite.
l Do not discharge the battery pack using any device except for the specified
device. When it is used in devices other than the specified devices, the battery
pack can be damaged or its life expectancy reduced. If the device causes any
abnormal current to flow, it may cause the battery pack to become hot, explode
or ignite and cause serious injury.
l In the event the battery pack leaks and the fluid gets into one’s eye, do not rub
the eye. Rinse well with water and immediately seek medical care. If left
untreated, the battery fluid could cause damage to the eye.

Figure 2-13 Starting the PDT
2.4.2 Power on / off
Ø To turn on the PDT
Press the Power key briefly (). If the PDT does not power on, perform the cold
reset. See chapter 2.7.1.
As the PDT initializes its file system, it splash screen displays for about 30 seconds
followed by calibration screen. Every time you perform a cold reset, these screens will
also appear.
To turn off the PDT, just press the Power key again. This action does not actually turn off
