This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B

digital device pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to

provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential

installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency

energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may

cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no

guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.

It can be determined whether this equipment is causing interference by turning it

off. If the interference stops, it was probably caused by the equipment.

If the equipment does cause interference, try to correct the interference by one or

more of the following measures:

- Reorient or relocate the radio or television antenna.

- Increase the separation between the equipment and the radio or television.

- Connect the equipment to an outlet on a different circuit from the radio or

television.

- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Any changes to this certified device will void your legal right to operate it.

All interface cables to and from this device must be shielded with Ferrite core.

get wet because it may cause fire or electric shock.

Failure to do so may cause leakage, explosions, or a fire in the battery

pack, which may lead to fires or personal injury.

DO NOT disassemble the battery pack because it may cause the

battery pack to heat up and catch fire, leading to other serious

accidents.

DO NOT short the battery pack terminals as it may lead to fire, electric

shock, or personal injury.

adapter or the charger, or an electric shock, which may lead to fires or

accidents.

DO NOT remove the battery pack during recharging. You may get an

electric shock if you touch the terminal while in recharging mode.

Use the buttery charger recommended by SII to recharge the battery

PRINTER YOURSELF. Doing so may cause fire, electric shock or

other accidents.

Never use the printer in a place of extreme humidity or any place

where it can possibly be splashed by any liquids. If any liquids get into

the printer, it could lead to fire, electric shock, or other serious

accidents.

Never touch the thermal head immediately after printing because it

becomes very hot. Make sure that the thermal head is cool before

clearing a paper jam or cleaning the thermal head.

Be sure to hold the connector part of the power cable or interface cable

when disconnecting the cable. Pulling on the cable portion may cause

it to fray and break.

Power OFF the printer, unplug the power cable from the power outlet,

and remove the battery pack in any of the following cases:

◆The printer does not recover from an error.

◆Smoke, strange noise or smells erupt from the printer.

OPERATING PRECAUTIONS

Please follow the precautions below to enjoy and maintain the full performance of the

printer.

QUsing the Printer

XBe careful not to drop or bump the printer on a hard surface.

XDO NOT install the printer in direct sunlight or such areas. Suitable environment

for the use of the printer is as follows:

· Ambient temperature: 41°F to 104°F (5°C to 40°C)

· Relative humidity: 30 to 80%(noncondensing)

XDO NOT install the printer near devices that generate strong electromagnetic

fields such as a copy machine.

XDO NOT connect the AC cables of the AC adapter and the battery charger to the

same outlet with devices that generate noise.

XDO NOT open the platen cover during printing.

XDO NOT remove or reinstall the interface cable during printing or transmission.

DO NOT touch the connectors of the interface cable during printing.

XDO NOT cut any sheets of thick paper or label paper with the paper cutter

installed in the paper outlet. Failure to follow this instruction may cause a cutting

error or make the cutting edge dull due to label paper adhesive sticking to the

cutter.

XSwitch the power off when not in use.

XClean the printer using soft, lint-free cloth. Do not use alcohol or other solvent.

XBefore use, always clean the terminals using a dry, soft, lint-free cloth. If the

terminals are dirty, it may not be possible to obtain proper contact.

XThe AC adapter, the battery charger and the battery pack may become warm

when in use. This is normal and is not a malfunction.

XWhen the battery pack is used at low temperature, the length of time the printer

can be used may be shortened.

XWhen printing with high print rate is performed on thick papers, uneven printing

may occur and the sound during printing may become louder. However, since this

symptom is caused by the type of paper used, it is not printer trouble.

QThermal Paper Handling

XStore the thermal paper in a cool, dry, and dark place.

XDo not rub the paper with hard objects.

XDo not leave the paper near organic solvents.

XDo not allow plastic film, erasers, or adhesive tape to touch the paper for long

periods.

XDo not stack the thermal paper with diazo copies immediately after copying or wet-

type copies.
