Cet appareil numerique de la classe B respecte les exigences du Reglement sur le material broilleur du Canada. European Conformity Statement Declaration of Conformity with Regard to the R&TTE 1999/5/EC and EMC 89/336/ EEC directives.
Laser Information The Unitech HT660e series is certified in the U.S. to conform to the requirements of DHHS/CDRH 21CFR Subchapter J and to the requirements of IEC 825-1. Class II and Class 2 products are not considered to be hazardous. The HT660e series contains internally a Visible Laser Diode (VLD) whose emissions do not exceed the maximum limits as set forth in the above regulations.
If the main battery is removed, the backup battery ensures the data on SDRAM is safe for up to 72 hours. To prevent data loss, do not leave the HT660e uncharged with the main battery removed for an extended period. See First Time to Charge the Main Battery & Backup Battery on page 9 for more details. Note: Rechargeable batteries are advised to replace every year or when 500 charge/discharge cycles achieved to guarantee optimal performance.
inflating, the battery is detected for thermal protection and will not be charged when the temperature of battery is over 50 degrees. Do not leave the terminal for a long time in the charging cradle and do not charge the battery with a cable long, which will shorten the battery life and cause battery expanding/ballooning. The unit should not be subject to very high temperature, excessive moisture, and direct heat. Avoid the battery from being fully charged and staying in a high temperature environment.
