Use in High-Safety Applications

This product has been designed and manufactured on the assumption that it will be used in office, personal, domestic, regular industrial, and general-purpose applications. It has not been designed and manufactured for use in applications (simply called “high-safety applications” from here on) that directly involve danger to life and health when a high degree of safety is required, for example, in the control of nuclear reactions at nuclear power facilities, automatic flight control of aircraft, air traffic control, operation control in mass-transport systems, medical equipment for sustaining life, and missile firing control in weapons systems, and when provisionally the safety in question is not ensured. The user should use this product with adopting measures for ensuring safety in such high-safety applications. PFU Limited assumes no liability whatsoever for damages arising from use of this product by the user in high-safety applications, and for any claims or compensation for damages by the user or a third party

The following describes important warnings for using this product. For the safe use of this product, make sure to follow the following descriptions

Do not get the keyboard wet with water, seawater, beverages, or any other liquids. Doing so may cause the batteries to heat up, explode, or ignite.

Do not use, store, or leave the keyboard or batteries in any location subject to high temperature (such as in a place located by a fire or a heater, in direct sunlight, or inside a car under the blazing sunlight), in any location subject to low temperature, or in any high-altitude location with low air pressure. Doing so may cause the batteries to leak, heat up, explode, or ignite.

Do not burn the keyboard or batteries, or do not throw them into fire for any reason. Doing so may cause the batteries to heat up, explode, or ignite.

Do not strike a nail into the keyboard or batteries, hit them with a hammer, step on them, treat them badly causing high levels of impact, or crush or cut them by using a machine. Doing so may cause the batteries to heat up, explode, or ignite.

For any reason, do not place the keyboard in a cooking appliance (such as a microwave oven), in a high-pressure container, or on an electromagnetic cooker (such as an induction heating cooker).
Doing so may cause the batteries to heat up, explode, or ignite.

Do not use an incorrect type of battery that may disable the protection function (for example, some types of lithium batteries). Doing so may cause the batteries to heat up, explode, or ignite.

If battery leakage occurs, keep the liquid away from your face or hands. Not doing so may cause blindness or skin damage.
If the liquid gets into your eyes or mouth, or gets on to your skin or clothes, rinse with clean water immediately.
Also, in the case that the liquid gets into your eyes or mouth, go to the hospital.

If any one of the situations below happens, turn the power off and stop using it. Make sure that the batteries do not have any problems, such as being too hot, and be careful not to burn yourself when taking them out of the keyboard. If a cable is used, disconnect the cable from the keyboard.
Not doing so may result in a fire or an electric shock.

• The keyboard has been dropped.
• Smoke or heat coming from the keyboard is detected.
• Abnormal noise or smell is detected.
• Foreign objects (water, liquids, small metal objects, etc.) get inside the keyboard.
• Other problems which indicate a keyboard failure are detected.

If battery leakage occurs or an abnormal smell is detected, stop using the keyboard. If it is placed near a fire, move it away from the fire. Not doing so may cause the battery to explode or ignite.

Do not take apart or modify the keyboard. In addition, taking apart the keyboard by yourself voids the warranty. PFU is not responsible for any damages or losses resulting from taking the keyboard apart by yourself.

Do not place the keyboard in locations which are subject to high temperatures, humidity, poor ventilation, or dust. If placed in an area subject to high temperatures, the frame may become overheated and deformed, resulting in an electrical leakage or fire. Use the keyboard in a well-ventilated environment.

For example, do not place the keyboard in the following locations:

• A place near heat-radiating devices such as stoves or electric heaters, or flammable items such as volatile inflammable materials or curtain.
• A place such as kitchen where oil smoke may be formed.
• A place such as a bathroom, shower room, or swimming pool where it may easily get wet.
• A place under direct sunlight, in a car under the scorching sun, or near heating apparatus where it may get hot.

Wire the cables for this product as well as other peripheral devices carefully. If your foot gets caught in one of the cables, you may trip over or the product as well as other peripheral devices may fall over or be pulled off from high places, causing injuries or an equipment failure. To prevent children from chocking by getting the cables caught around their neck, wire the cables so that children cannot reach them easily

Before moving the keyboard, be sure to disconnect the cable of the keyboard from the computer.
Make sure that the floor is free of any obstructions.
Do not move the keyboard with the cables connected as this can damage the cables, which can later cause a fire or electric shock. The cables can also hinder work, causing injuries.

Do not use the keyboard while driving a car. Doing so may prevent you from driving carefully, which can cause an accident.

Do not use any aerosol sprays or alcohol based sprays to clean the keyboard. Dust blown up by strong air from the spray may enter the inside of the keyboard. This may cause the keyboard to fail or malfunction. Sparks, caused by static electricity, generated when blowing off dust and dirt from the outside of the keyboard may cause a fire.

In areas (such as hospitals) where the use of radio waves is restricted, do not use the keyboard in accordance with the instructions in the area. There is a possibility that the radio waves may affect electronic devices, medical devices, and implanted medical devices (such as cardiac pacemakers). This is a general characteristic of all devices that use radio waves, and is not specific to this keyboard.

When placing the keyboard on a table, make sure that the work surface is fl at and stable, and that none of the keyboardʼs parts extend over the table edge, otherwise it may fall over or be pulled off the table and cause injuries or damage.

To avoid injuries, do not place the keyboard in an area where small children may be able to reach.

Do not place heavy objects on the keyboard or perform other work on top of the keyboard. Doing so might cause injuries or an equipment failure.

Place the keyboard away from strong magnetic fields and other sources of electronic noise.
Protect the keyboard against any static electricity and choose a static-free place to place the keyboard.
Static electricity can cause the keyboard to malfunction.

It is recommended that you place the keyboard and a computer/mobile device in the most open place possible. If there are obstacles (such as walls or metal plates) that block the radio waves, data transmission may not be possible, or the transmission speed may slow down.

Do not use the keyboard immediately after moving it from a cold place into a warm room.
Condensation may occur, which might lead to input errors. Let the keyboard dry for one or two hours before using it.

When carrying the keyboard outside while it is raining or snowing, pay special attention so the keyboard does not get wet. If the keyboard gets wet, wipe it or wait until it dries.
