Rechargeable Battery Safety Guideline

Prohibition: Improper handling of the Li-Polymer or Li-ion battery is hazardous, the following forbidden activities must be avoided:

• DO NOT use NON-SPECTRA provided battery in SPECTRA POS Terminal
• DO NOT use a charger that is not specifically designed to charge Battery
• DO NOT operate the terminal, charge up or store the battery under high temperature(under direct sunlight or inside a roasting vehicle) or close to heat source (fire, heater)
• DO NOT store the battery in the external charger. After charging up, the battery should be  removed, even though power is disconnected
• DO NOT use damaged battery, e.g. Swelled case broken, strange odor and chemical leakage
• DO NOT knock, crash or press the battery
• DO NOT submerge the battery into water
• DO NOT heat the battery or dispose in fire
• DO NOT solder the battery
• DO NOT disassemble the battery
• DO NOT short or puncture the battery

Battery Operation & Charging Guideline

• The best temperature for battery operation is 0°C ~ 45°C. DO NOT place the terminal in hot space or poor ventilated space. Ensure good ventilation for cooling
• DO NOT leave battery un-attended when charging. You should closely monitor the charging process & react to potential problem should they occur
• Do always check that batteries are physically and electrically undamaged before charge or discharge
• Battery charging must be kept away from inflammable material and on a non conductiveand nonflammable stable surface by:
  • Terminal built-in charger: install battery to the terminal, then apply power.
  • SPECTRA supplied external charger
• When new terminal is received, please charge the battery fully up
• If the battery gauge indicates battery low, charge up the battery at once
• Battery always self-discharges. Long period of discharging will deteriorate the capacity and life of the battery. Please re-charge the battery weekly for normal operation

Terminal and Battery Storage Guideline

• If the battery will not be used for a long period, please charge it to only 50% of the battery capacity (battery indicator displays half full, 2 units); remove it from the  terminal and store in a cool place. This can minimize the life deterioration caused by self-discharge
• DO NOT store bare battery together with metal, avoid humid and hot storage
• During storage period, please recharge the battery once every 3 months

Accident Handling

• During charging, if the battery or the charger exhibits any abnormity such as overheat, fuming, swelling & chemical leakage, disconnect power immediately, remove the battery from the charger, put it in a safe place and advise the supplier
• Li-Polymer or Li-ion Battery does not contain liquid electrolyte. Just in case human body touches the electrolyte, rinse with water and seek medical advice immediately
• Batteries having electrolyte leakage or chemical odor must be distant from fire source to prevent explosion
• If accidentally short the battery, put it in a non-conductive container and keep it away from flammable objects

Battery Disposal
Protect your lovely Planet, please dispose the old batteries according to Government regulations

• During using wireless communication, keep human body at least 1.5 cm apart from the terminal. Keep the terminal away from other antenna or wireless device.
• Do not touch the thermal printer head and paper cutter

Location for Installation

• Should be safe and convenient for operators and users
• Should be placed on stable working platform during desktop operation for ease of power and accessories connection
• Good ventilation and should have 22cm space around the terminal
• DO NOT expose the terminal in following environment
  • Near electrical appliance with high frequency EM wave such as air conditioner, electric fan, motor, neon sign etc.
  • Liquid container such as water trough, sink, pond etc.
  • High temperature or humidity place
  • High containing of VOC, salty and dusty area
  • Sunlight or high thermal radiation area

2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

Note : This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection againstharmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates,uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmfulinterference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in aparticular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

RF Exposure Information (SAR) :
This device meets the government’s requirements for exposure to radio waves. This device is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. Government. The exposure standard for wireless devices employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg. *Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions accepted by the FCC with the device transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the device while operating can be well below the maximum value. This is because the device is designed to operate atmultiple power levels so as to use only the poser required to reach the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output. The highest SAR value for the device as reported to the FCC when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 0.69 W/kg (Body-worn measurements differ among devices, depending upon availableenhancements and FCC requirements.) While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various devices and at various positions, they all meet the government requirement. The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this device with all reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with theFCC RF exposure guidelines. SAR information on this device is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID: VWZS1. For handheld operating condition, SAR meets with limit 4.0W/kg. For body worn operation, this device has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines for use with an accessory that contains no metal and the positions the device minimum of 10 mm from the body .
