User and Product Safety
Do not stare into the laser or LED beam directly or shine it into eyes.
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.
Although the PDT has passed the test of IP65 standard for water and dust
resistance, avoid prolonged exposure to rain or other concentrated moisture.
Such condition exceeds the IP65 standard, and could result in water or other
contaminants entering into the PDT.
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.
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.
Make regularly back-up of all important data.
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.
LASER RADIATION: DO NOT STARE INTO BEAM CLASS 2 LASER PRODUCT.

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:
Do not throw the battery pack in fire. Do not expose the battery to high
temperatures.
Do not connect the positive battery pack with negative battery pack to each
other with any metal object (like wire).
Do not carry or store battery pack together with metal objects.
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.
Do not solder onto the battery pack.
Do not expose battery pack to liquid or allow the battery contacts to get wet.
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.
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.
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.

FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION
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 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.
CAUTION:
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the
equipment.
RF exposure warning
The equipment complies with FCC RF exposure limits set forth for an
uncontrolled environment.
The antenna(s) used for this transmitter must not be co-located or operating in
conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
RF exposure information (SAR)
This Rugged Tablet PC meets the government's requirements for exposure to
radio waves. This Rugged Tablet PC 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 U.S. Government. The
exposure standard for wireless Rugged Tablet PC employs a unit of
measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit
DAP 7 M9020 Rugged Computing
Users Guide Rugged Table PCs
5
set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg. Tests for SAR are conducted using standard
operating positions accepted by the FCC with the Rugged Tablet PC
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 Rugged Tablet PC while operating can be well below the
maximum value. This is because the Rugged Tablet PC is designed to operate
at multiple power levels so as to use only the poser required to reach the
network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the
lower the power output. The highest SAR value for US model Rugged Tablet
PC as reported to the FCC when tested for use at the body, as described in
this user guide, is 1.184 W/kg.
Industry Canada Class B Statement
CAN ICES-3 (B)/NMB-3(B)
This device complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS
standard(s).Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device
may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference,
