Warnings for Use of Wireless Devices
CAUTION Please observe all warning notices with regard to the usage of wireless devices.

Potentially Hazardous Atmospheres – Vehicles Use

You are reminded of the need to observe restrictions on the use of radio devices in fuel depots, chemical plants etc. and areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust, or metal powders and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.

Safety in Hospitals
Wireless devices transmit radio frequency energy and may affect medical electrical equipment.
Wireless devices should be switched off wherever you are requested to do so in hospitals, clinics or healthcare facilities. These requests are designed to prevent possible interference with sensitive medical equipment.

Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommended that a minimum of 15 cm (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.

Persons with Pacemakers:

  • 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.

Other Medical Devices
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.

Battery Information

CAUTION Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose of batteries according to instructions.

Use only Zebra approved batteries. Accessories which have battery charging capability are approved for use with the following battery models:
Model BT-000397 (3.7 Vdc, 480 mash)
Model BT-000398 (3.7 Vdc, 735 mash).
Zebra approved rechargeable battery packs are designed and constructed to the highest standards within the industry. However, there are limitations as 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 one year, regardless if the battery was purchased separately or included as part of the mobile computer or bar code scanner.

Battery Safety Guidelines

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 noncommercial 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 +41 ºF and +104 ºF (5 ºC and +40 ºC)
  • 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.
