Battery safety information
Battery protection
· Frequently charging a battery under high voltage may shorten the battery
life. To protect the battery, once the battery is fully charged, the system
may stop charging when the battery power is between 90% and 100%.
NOTE: The initiate battery power charging capacity is usually set between 90%
and 99%. Actual value may vary by models.
· Charging or storing a battery in high ambient temperatures may result in
permanent damage to the battery power capacity and rapidly shorten battery
life. If the battery temperature is too high, the system may reduce the
battery power charging capacity or even stop charging to protect the battery.
· Battery power capacity may drop even when your device is powered o and
disconnected from the AC power. This is normal as the system still draws a
small amount of power from the battery.
12

MyASUS Splendid
MyASUS Splendid ensures that all ASUS display panels show identical and
accurate colors. You may select Vivid, Eye Care, or Manual Mode beside Normal
Mode to adjust the display settings.
· Normal Mode: Through Gamma and Color temperature correction, the image
output from the panel is as close as possible as what your eye can naturally
see. For model with OLED panel, this mode is compliant with TÜV Low Blue Light
Certication.
· Vivid Mode: This mode allows you to adjust the saturation of the image,
making it more vivid and vibrant.
· Manual Mode: This mode allows you to adjust the color temperature value to
your personal needs, ranging from -50 to +50.
· Eye Care Mode: This mode reduces blue light emission by up to 30%, helping
to protect your eyes.
Level 1-5: The higher the level, the more blue light emission is reduced. For
model with LCD panel, Level 5 is the optimized setting, and is compliant with
TÜV Low Blue Light Certication.
NOTE: Enable HDR from Settings > System > Display for a better viewing
experience with your OLED panel (on selected models), and is compliant with

Please refer to the following tips to alleviate eye strain:
· Take some time away from the display if working for long hours. It is
advised to take short breaks (at least 5 minutes) after around 1 hour of
continuous working at the computer. Taking short and frequent breaks is more
eective than a long break.
· To minimize eye strain and eye dryness, rest your eyes periodically by
focusing on objects that are far away.
· Repeat the following exercises to reduce eye strain:
(1) Look up and down repeatedly
(2) Slowly roll your eyes
(3) Move your eyes diagonally
If eye strain persists, please consult a physician.
· High energy blue light may lead to eye strain and AMD (AgeRelated Macular
Degeneration). Blue light Filter reduces 30% (max.) harmful blue light to
avoid CVS (Computer Vision Syndrome).

Internal Modem Compliancy
The Notebook PC with internal modem model complies with JATE (Japan), FCC (US,
Canada, Korea, Taiwan), and CTR21. The internal modem has been approved in
accordance with Council Decision 98/482/EC for pan-European single terminal
connection to the public switched telephone network (PSTN). However due to
dierences between the individual PSTNs provided in dierent countries, the
approval does not, of itself, give an unconditional assurance of successful
operation on every PSTN network termination point. In the event of problems
you should contact your equipment supplier in the rst instance.
Overview
On 4th August 1998 the European Council Decision regarding the CTR 21 has been
published in the Ocial Journal of the EC. The CTR 21 applies to all non voice
terminal equipment with DTMF-dialling which is intended to be connected to the
analogue PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network).
CTR 21 (Common Technical Regulation) for the attachment requirements for
connection to the analogue public switched telephone networks of terminal
equipment (excluding terminal equipment supporting the voice telephony justied
case service) in which network addressing, if provided, is by means of dual
tone multi-frequency signalling.

Network Compatibility Declaration
Statement to be made by the manufacturer to the Notied Body and the vendor:
This declaration will indicate the networks with which the equipment is

Statement to be made by the manufacturer to the user: This declaration will
indicate the networks with which the equipment is designed to work and any
notied networks with which the equipment may have inter-working diculties. The
manufacturer shall also associate a statement to make it clear where network
compatibility is dependent on physical and software switch settings. It will
also advise the user to contact the vendor if it is desired to use the
equipment on another network.”
Up to now the Notied Body of CETECOM issued several pan-European approvals
using CTR 21. The results are Europe’s rst modems which do not require
regulatory approvals in each individual European country.
Non-Voice Equipment
Answering machines and loud-speaking telephones can be eligible as well as
modems, fax machines, auto-dialers and alarm systems. Equipment in which the
end-to-end quality of speech is controlled by regulations (e.g. handset
telephones and in some countries also cordless telephones) is excluded.

RF Exposure information (SAR)
This device meets the EU requirements (2014/53/EU) on the limitation of
exposure of the general public to electromagnetic elds by way of health
protection.
The limits are part of extensive recommendations for the protection of the
general public. These recommendations have been developed and checked by
independent scientic organizations through regular and thorough evaluations of
scientic studies. The unit of measurement for the European Council’s
recommended limit for mobile devices is the Specic Absorption Rate” (SAR), and
the SAR limit is 2.0 W/Kg averaged over 10 gram of body tissue. It meets the
requirements of the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation
Protection (ICNIRP).
For next-to-body operation, this device has been tested and meets the ICNIRP
exposure guidelines and the European Standard EN 50566 and EN 62209-2. SAR is
measured with the device directly contacted to the body while transmitting at
the highest certied output power level in all frequency bands of the mobile
device.
A minimum separation distance of 1 cm must be maintained between the user’s
body and the device, including the antenna during body-worn operation to
comply with the RF exposure requirements in Europe.
