Class II and Class 2 products are not considered to be hazardous. The PA600 series contains internally a Visible Laser Diode (VLD) whose emissions do not exceed the maximum limits as set forth in the above regulations. The scanner is designed so that there is no human access to harmful laser light during normal operation, user maintenance or during prescribed service operations. The laser safety warning label required by the DHHS/IEC for the PA600 series's optional laser scanner module is located on the memory compartment cover, on the back of the unit. CAUTION! Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous laser light. Use of optical instruments with the scanner will increase eye hazard. Optical instruments include binoculars, microscopes, and magnifying glasses. This does not include eye glasses worn by the user. Battery Notices This unit is equipped with a battery pack and backup battery. Both batteries will discharge after an extended period of not being used. When both batteries are discharged, recharge the unit for 16 hours in order to fully charge the main battery and backup battery. There are two ways to recharge PA600: 3. Plug the USB charging cable to the PA600 and plug the 5V/2A AC-DC adapter to the power jack of the USB charging cable. 4. Place the PA600 into the docking station and plug the 5V/2A AC-DC adapter to the power jack of the docking station. For more details, refer to page 8, Charging the Battery. If the main battery is removed, the backup battery ensures the data on SDRAM is safe for up to 6 hours. To prevent data loss, do not leave the PA600 uncharged with the main battery removed for an extended period. Battery charge notice It is important to consider the environment temperature whenever you are charging the Lithium-Ion battery pack. The process is most efficient at normal room temperature or slightly cooler. It is essential that you charge batteries within the stated range of 0°C to 50°C. Charging batteries outside of the specified range could damage the batteries and shorten their charging life cycle. iii Storage and safety notice Although charged Lithium-Ion batteries may be left unused for several months, their capacity may be depleted due to build up of internal resistance. If this happens they will require recharging prior to use. Lithium-Ion batteries may be stored at temperatures between-20°C to 60°C, however they may be depleted more rapidly at the high end of this range. It is recommended to store batteries within normal room temperature. iv Table of Contents Preface About This Manual Regulatory Compliance Statements ............................................................................. i FCC Warning Statement..........................................................................................................
