Warnings for Use of Wireless Devices

1999/5/EC and 2011/65/EU 

             Safety in Hospitals

              Wireless devices transmit radio frequency energy and may affect medical electrical equipment.

Pacemakers

Persons with Pacemakers:

Other Medical Devices

Wireless devices should be switched off wherever you are requested to do so in hospitals, clinics or health care 
facilities. These requests are designed to prevent possible interference with sensitive medical equipmet.

Please consult your physician or the manufacturer of the medical device, to determine if the operation of your  
wireless product may interfere with the medical device.

Pacemaker manufacturers recommended that a minimum of 15cm (6 inches) be maintained between a handheld 
wireless device and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations are 
consistent with independent research and recommendations by Wireless Technology Research.

• Should ALWAYS keep the device more than 15cm (6 inches) from their pacemaker when turned ON.
• Should not carry the device in a breast pocket.
• Should use the ear furthest from the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference 
• If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, turn OFF your device. 

Caution: 

To satisfy US and Canadian RF exposure requirements, a transmitting device must operate

with a minimum separation distance of 0 cm or more from a person’s body. 

 

RF Exposure Guidelines

fields from radio devices.  For information on “International” human exposure to eletromagnetic fields refer to

the Zebra Declaration of Conformity (DoC) at http://www.zebra.com/doc.

To comply with EU RF exposure requirements, this device must be operated in the hand with a minimum
separation distance of 0 cm or more from a person’s body. Other operating configurations should be avoided.

To comply with FCC RF exposure compliance requirement, the antenna used for this transmitter must not be 
co-located or operating in conjunction with any other transmitter/antenna except those already approve in this filling.

For further information on the safety of RF energy from wireless devices, see
http://responsibility.zebra.com/index.php/downloads/, which is located under Wireless Communications
and Health. 

• Co-located Statement

This device was tested for typical body worn or handheld operation. Use only Zebra tested and approved belt-clips, 
holsters, and similar accessories to ensure FCC Compliance. The use of third-party belt clips, holsters, and similar 
accessories may not comply with FCC RF exposure compliance requirements, and should be avoided.

• Handheld Devices

Pour satisfaire aux exigences Américaines et Canadiennes d'exposition aux radio fréquences, un 

dispositif de transmission doit fonctionner avec une distance de séparation minimale de 0 cm ou plus 
de corps d'une personne.

Batteries 

Taiwan - Recycling

Battery Information

Battery Safety Guidelines

Use only Zebra approved batteries. Accessories which have battery charging capability are approved for use
with the following battery models: Part Number 82-176890-01 (3.6 Vdc, 3200 mAh).

EPA (Environmental Protection Administration) requires dry battery producing or importing firms in accordance with 
Article 15 of the Waste Disposal Act are required to indicate the recycling marks on the batteries used in sales, 

giveaway or promotion. Contact a qualified Taiwanese recycler for proper battery dispos

al.

Zebra approved rechargeable battery packs are designed and constructed to the highest standards within
the industry.

However, there are limitations to how long a battery can operate or be stored before needing replacement. 
Many factors affect the actual life cycle of a battery pack, such as heat, cold, harsh environmental
conditions and severe drops. 

When batteries are stored over six months, some irreversible deterioration in overall battery quality may 
occur. Store batteries at half of full charge in a dry, cool place, removed from the equipment to prevent loss 
of capacity, rusting of metallic parts and electrolyte leakage. When storing batteries for one year or longer, 
the charge level should be verified at least once a year and charged to half of full charge. Replace the 
battery when a significant loss of run time is detected.

Standard warranty period for all Zebra batteries is 30 days, regardless if the battery was purchased 
separately or included as part of the mobile computer or bar code scanne

r.

 For more information on 

Zebra batteries, please visit: http://www.zebra.com/batterybasics.

   The area in which the units are charged should be clear of debris and combustible materials or chemicals. Particular

care should be taken where the device is charged in a non commercial environment.

•  Follow battery usage, storage, and charging guidelines found in the user's guide.

•  Improper battery use may result in a fire, explosion, or other hazard.

•  To charge the mobile device battery, the battery and charger temperatures must be  between +32ºF and +104ºF 

(0ºC and +40ºC).  

•  Do not use incompatible batteries and chargers. Use of an incompatible battery or charger may present a risk  of fire, 

explosion, leakage, or other hazard. If you have any questions about the compatibility of a battery or  a charger, 
contact Zebra support.

•  For devices that utilize a USB port as a charging source, the device shall only be connected to products that

bear the USB-IF logo or have completed the USB-IF compliance program.

•  Do not disassemble or open, crush, bend or deform, puncture, or shred.

•  Severe impact from dropping any battery-operated device on a hard surface could cause the battery to overheat.

•  Do not short circuit a battery or allow metallic or conductive objects to contact the battery terminals.

•  Do not modify or remanufacture, attempt to insert foreign objects into the battery, immerse or expose to water

or other liquids, or expose to fire, explosion, or other hazard.

•  Do not leave or store the equipment in or near areas that might get very hot, such as in a parked vehicle

or near a radiator or other heat source. Do not place battery into a microwave oven or dryer.

•  Battery usage by children should be supervised.

•  Please follow local regulations to promptly dispose of used re-chargeable batteries.

•  Do not dispose of batteries in fire.

•  Seek medical advice immediately if a battery has been swallowed.

•  In the event of a battery leak, do not allow the liquid to come in contact with the skin or eyes. If contact has been 

made, wash the affected area with large amounts of water and seek medical advice.

•  If you suspect damage to your equipment or battery, contact Zebra support to arrange for inspection.

Caution: 

Risk of expolosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose of batteries 

according to instructions.
