Laser Information
The Unitech PA692 series is certified in the U.S. to conform to the
requirements of DHHS/CDRH 21CFR Subchapter J and to the requirements of
IEC 825-1. Class II and Class 2 products are not considered to be hazardous.
The PA692 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 prescribed
service operations.
The laser safety warning label required by the DHHS/IEC for the PA692 series'
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.

Battery Notices
The PA692 is equipped with a Lithium-Ion battery pack and a Ni-Mh backup
battery. Both batteries will discharge after an extended period of no use.
When both batteries are discharged, recharge the unit for 12 hours in order to
fully charge the main battery and backup battery. Recharge the PA692 battery
by doing the following:
1. Plug the USB charging cable into the PA692 and plug the 5V/3A AC-DC
adapter into the power jack of the USB charging cable.
2. Place the PA692 into the docking station and plug the 5V/3A AC-DC
adapter into the power jack of the docking station.
If the main battery is removed, the backup battery ensures the data on SDRAM
is safe for up to 2 hours. To prevent data loss, do not leave the PA692
uncharged with the main battery removed for an extended period. See the
Charging the Battery unit on for more details.
Note: To guarantee optimal performance, it is advised that rechargeable
batteries be replaced every year, or when 500 charge/discharge cycles
are achieved. It is normal that the battery balloons or expands beyond
one year or the maximum of 500 cycles. Although it does not cause
harm, it cannot be used again and must be disposed of according to the
location's safe battery disposal procedures.
If the performance decrease is greater than 20% in a Lithium-Ion battery,
the battery is at the end of its life cycle. Do not continue to use, and
ensure the battery is disposed of properly.
The length of time that a battery lasts depends on the battery type and how the
device is used. Conserve the battery life by doing the following:
Avoid frequent full discharges because this places additional strain on the
battery. Several partial discharges with frequent recharges are better than
a full discharge. Recharging a partially charged lithium-Ion battery does
not cause harm because there is no memory.
Keep the lithium-Ion battery cool. Avoid a hot car. For prolonged storage,
keep the battery at a 40% charge level.
Do not leave the lithium-Ion battery discharged and unused for an
extended period because the battery will wear out and the longevity of the
battery will be at least half of the one with frequent recharges.

Battery charge notice
It is important to consider the environment temperature when the Lithium-Ion
battery pack is charged. Charging is most efficient at normal room temperature
or in a slightly cooler environment. It is essential that batteries are charged
within the stated range of 0°C to 40°C. Charging batteries outside of the
specified range could damage the batteries and shorten their charging life
cycle.
CAUTION! Do not charge batteries at a temperature lower than 0°C. This will
increase the internal resistance to cause heat and make the
batteries unstable and unsafe. Please use a battery temperature
detecting device for a charger to ensure a safe charging
temperature range.
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 deplete
more rapidly at higher temperatures. It is recommended to store batteries at
room temperature.
Warranty
The following items covered under the Unitech Limited Warranty are free from
defects during normal use:
PA692 – 1-year limited warranty.
Lithium-Ion battery – 6-month limited warranty.
Warranty becomes void if equipment is modified, improperly installed or used,
damaged by accident or neglect, or if any parts are improperly installed or
replaced by the user.
Use only the adapter supplied. Using the wrong adapter may damage the unit
and will void the warranty.
