Important Product Safety and Information

General information

1. The operation and positioning accuracy of the Global Positioning System,

GPS, is maintained by the Defense Department of the United States of

America. Based on its public policy and national security, the US

government reserves the right to alter the GPS system and its accuracy

without forewarning.

2. Although LR8M06 has undergone several safety tests and conforms to a

number of national security standards, using the device could become

risky in certain abnormal climatic or seismic conditions without correct

operation. Please read the manual carefully before operating the device.

3. As with other GSM mobiles, the electric magnetic wave may affect the

functioning of medical instruments. If you wear heart-rate monitor, do not

position the tracker in front of the chest. It is best to keep a distance of at

least 6 inches between the tracker and the monitor. When close to other

medical instruments, turn the tracker off.

4. For your safety, when aboard on an aircraft follow the LR8M06 power off

procedure.

5. In restricted areas such as gas stations or in the vicinity of explosives,

please shut down the LR8M06. Under no conditions should you use the

LR8M06 near fuel or flammable materials.

10. When the LR8M06 is connected to a computer, make sure the computer

has reputable anti-virus software installed.

11. Specification and functions vary in different areas.

12. A different network setup, various makes of SIM card, and different

modes of operation could be the cause of varying rates of in the tracker's

power consumption.

13. LR8M06 is GSM 900/1800/1900 and GPRS ready. Before using the

device you should purchase an SIM card from a local telecommunication

service provider. This service should include at least an internet

connection, voice communication, and short message service.

14. With or without a SIM card, LR8M06 can be used as a GPS receiver.

When a micro SD card is inserted into the SD card slut, the tracker will

store its GPS data on the micro SD card and make it work as a data-

logger.

Battery Safety Notices

Failing to use the battery correctly could be hazardous. Please pay attention

to the following.

1. Your LR8M06 tracker is powered by a rechargeable battery that can be

frequently charged and discharged. When the device's talk time and

standby time becomes shorter than normal, it is time to replace the

battery.

2. Exclusive use of the battery approved by Leadtek Inc is recommended. If

other makes are used, damage to the tracker may result. To exchange the

battery you should contact your original supplier.

3. When removing the battery from the LR8M06, make sure to power-off

LR8M06.

4. Please do not disassemble, alter, or solder the battery. This could melt

insulation and cause gas leakage and damage to the protection circuit.

5. Do not apply any steel tools or any other hard objects to the tracker and

avoid stepping on it. Any of the latter could cause battery leakage with

adverse results.

6. When the battery is not installed, place it in a water-proof and insulated

container. Under no circumstance should you use any metal to connect the

positive and negative terminals or place the battery in a metal container.

Do not place the battery in a microwave or in a high-pressure container.

This could cause a short circuiting and fire.

7. Do not heat the battery or place it close to the source of fire, a stove, or

any heated environment over 80 ; short circuiting could result in smoke

emission or a fire.

8. Do not place the battery in a damp or humid place. This could also cause

short circuiting, smoke and eventually fire.

9. Charge the battery in normal temperature conditions. Avoid direct

exposure to the sun, stove, or any other environment where the

temperature exceeds 80 . Follow the manual for proper battery charging

procedure and pay close attention while this takes place.

10. Do not connect the battery to a vehicle cigarette lighter or any electrical

plug.

11. If the battery is charged in an abnormal environment the battery

protection device will fail. An adverse chemical reaction will result as

well as a potentially hazardous surge in electrical current.

12. Charging the battery for longer than the recommended charging time will

shorten battery life. If the battery does not fully charge in the set time,

stop charging immediately to avoid fire.

13. Do not use the battery for any other purpose. It could shorten battery life.

Any surge of electrical current could result in fire.

LR8M06 is a small and powerful GPS/GSM/GPRS tracking device that is

developed for personal remote positioning and emergency reporting.

LR8M06 is suitable for many applications, such as human body or pet

monitoring and vehicle security, among others. Not only is it able to transmit

the longitude and latitude coordinate to your cell phone by SMS, but also

transmits the longitude and latitude coordinates to your PC via the GPRS

Internet connection and then displays the location with specific map

software. There are four quick dial buttons for fast dialing to pre-set numbers.

And the SOS keys can send out short message with GPS information in an

emergency.

With the superior sensitivity GPS chip on board, the LR8M06 can easily get a

fix, even in urban canyon conditions. Users can also benefit from its compact

size, its light weight and long working hours (Its GSM stand by time up to 65

hours). Its build-in G-sensor can help save battery power and reduce drifting

data when the tracker is not moving. Over all, the LR8M06 is the best

companion for remote positioning and security purposes.
