Danger Do not charge/discharge or place the battery in high-temperature (more than 80 C / 176 F) locations, such as near a fire, heater, in a car in direct sunlight, etc. Do not use unauthorized chargers. Do not force a reverse-charge or a reverse-connection. Keep the system and battery away from an extremely low air pressure environment as it may result in an explosion or the leakage of flammable liquid or gas. Warning Keep the battery away from infants. Stop using the battery if there are noticeable abnormalities such as abnormal smell, heat, deformities, or discoloration. Stop charging if the charging process cannot be finished. In case of a leaking battery, keep the battery away from flames and do not touch it. 33 Caution Do not use the battery where static electricity (more than 100V) exists that might damage the protection circuit of the battery. When children are using the system, parents or adults must ensure that they are using the system and battery correctly. Keep the battery away from flammable materials during charging and discharging. Heat Related Concerns Your device may become very warm during normal use. It complies with the user-accessible surface temperature limits defined by the International Standards for Safety. Still, sustained contact with warm surfaces for long periods of time may cause discomfort or injury. To reduce potential heat-related concerns, follow these guidelines:
Keep your device and its AC adapter in a well-ventilated area when in use or charging. Allow for adequate air circulation under and around the device. Use common sense to avoid situations where your skin is in contact with your device or its AC adapter when its operating or connected to a power source. For example, dont sleep with your device or its AC adapter, or place it under a blanket or pillow, and avoid contact between your body and your device when the AC adapter is connected to a power source. Take special care if you have a physical condition that affects your ability to detect heat against the body. If your device is used for long periods, its surface can become very warm. While the temperature may not feel hot to the touch, if you maintain physical contact with the device for a long time, for example if you rest the device on your lap, your skin might suffer a low-heat injury. If your device is on your lap and gets uncomfortably warm, remove it from your lap and place it on a stable work surface. Never place your device or AC adapter on furniture or any other surface that might be marred by exposure to heat since the base of your device and the surface of the AC adaptor may increase in temperature during normal use. 34 User Notification of Take-back Service To Institutional (B2B) Users in United States:

Please reference ENERGY STAR related information from http://www.energystar.gov. As an ENERGY STAR Partner, Getac Technology Corporation has determined that this product meets the ENERGY STAR guidelines for energy efficiency. An ENERGY STAR qualified computer uses 70 % less electricity than computers without enabled power management features. Earning the ENERGY STAR When every home office is powered by equipment that has earned the ENERGY STAR , the change will keep over 289 billion pounds of greenhouse gases out of the air. If left inactive, ENERGY STAR qualified computers enter a low-power mode and may use 15 watts or less. New chip technologies make power management features more reliable, dependable, and user-friendly than even just a few years ago. Spending a large portion of time in low-power mode not only saves energy, but helps equipment run cooler and last longer. Businesses that use ENERGY STAR enabled office equipment may realize additional savings on air conditioning and maintenance. 36 Over its lifetime, ENERGY STAR qualified equipment in a single home office
(e.g., computer, monitor, printer, and fax) can save enough electricity to light an entire home for more than 4 years. Power management (sleep settings) on computers and monitors can result in much savings annually. Remember, saving energy prevents pollution Because most computer equipment is left on 24 hours a day, power management features are important for saving energy and are an easy way to reduce air pollution. By using less energy, these products help lower consumers utility bills, and prevent greenhouse gas emissions. Getac Product Compliance All Getac products with ENERGY STAR logo comply with the ENERGY STAR standard. By default, the device will sleep after 1 minute of inactivity and, if remaining idle for some time, will enter a deep sleep mode that saves more battery power. You can use Settings to configure various power management settings. Please visit http://www.energystar.gov/powermanagement for detail information on power management and its benefits to the environment. 37 California Proposition 65 For California USA:
