IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
This unit requires an AC adapter to operate. Use only UL Listed I.T.E. Class II Adapters with an output rating of 19
VDC,
with a current of 4.22A (80 W). When using your notebook equipment, basic safety precautions should always be
followed to reduce the risk of fi re, electric shock and injury to persons, including the following:
AC adapter output polarity:
Do not use this product near water for example, near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink or laundry tub, in a wet
•
basement or near a swimming pool.
Avoid using the modem during an electrical storm. There may be a remote risk of electric shock from lightning.
•
Do not use the modem to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.
•
Use only the power cord and batteries indicated in this manual. Do not dispose of batteries in a fi re. They may
•
explode. Check with local codes for possible special disposal instructions.

Recycling your battery
Over time, the batteries that run your mobile computer will begin to hold a charge for a shorter amount of time;
this is a natural occurrence for all batteries. When this occurs, you may want to replace the battery with a
fresh one*. If you replace it, it is important that you dispose of the old battery properly because batteries
contain materials that could cause environmental damage if disposed of improperly.
Fujitsu is very concerned with environmental protection, and has enlisted the services of the Rechargeable
Battery Recycling Corporation (RBRC)**, a non-profi t public service organization dedicated to protecting
our environment by recycling old batteries at no cost to you.
RBRC has drop-off points at tens of thousands of locations throughout the United States and Canada.
To fi nd the location nearest you, go to www.RBRC.org or call 1-800-822-8837.
If there are no convenient RBRC locations near you, you can also go to the EIA Consumer Education Initiative
website (http://EIAE.org/) and search for a convenient disposal location.
Remember—protecting the environment is a cooperative effort, and you should make every effort
to protect it for current and future generations.
* To order a new battery for your Fujitsu mobile computer, go to the Fujitsu shopping site at
www.shopfujitsu.com in the US or www.fujitsu.ca/products/notebooks in Canada.
** RBRC is an independent third party to which Fujitsu provides funding for battery recycling;
RBRC is in no way affi liated with Fujitsu.
