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 16 VDC, with a current

of 2.5 A (40 W).

When using your notebook equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and

injury to persons, including the following:

• 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 a modem during an electrical storm. There may be a remote risk of electric shock from lightning.

• Do not use a 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 fire. They may explode. Check with

local codes for possible special disposal instructions.

• To reduce the risk of fire, use only No. 26 AWG or larger UL Listed or CSA Certified Telecommunication Line Cord.

• For TV tuner use: To protect from overvoltages and transients on the Cable Distribution System, make sure that the outer shield of

the coaxial cable is connected to earth (grounded) at the building premise as close to the point of cable entrance as practicable, as

required per NEC Article 820.93, ANSI/NFPA 70: 2005. If you have questions about your CATV installation, contact your service

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-profit 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 find 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 affiliated with

Fujitsu.
