Battery-Powered Devices
These precautions apply to all products that use rechargeable or disposable batteries.
Improperuseofbatteriesmayresultinbatteryuidleakage,overheating,orexplosion.Releasedbatteryuidiscorrosiveand
maybetoxic.Itcancauseskinandeyeburns,andisharmfulifswallowed.
To reduce the risk of injury:
●Keepbatteriesoutofreachofchildren.
● Donotheat,open,puncture,mutilate,ordisposeofbatteriesinre.
● Donotmixnewandoldbatteriesorbatteriesofdifferenttypes(forexample,carbon-zincandalkalinebatteries).
● Donotallowmetalobjectstotouchthebatteryterminalsonthedevice;theycanbecomehotandcauseburns.
● Removethebatteriesiftheyarewornoutorbeforestoringyourdeviceforanextendedperiodoftime.
●Alwaysremoveold,weak,orworn-outbatteriespromptlyandrecycleordisposeoftheminaccordancewithLocaland
NationalDisposalRegulations.
●Ifabatteryleaks,removeallbatteries,takingcaretokeeptheleakeduidfromtouchingyourskinorclothes.Ifuidfrom
thebatterycomesintocontactwithskinorclothes,ushskinwithwaterimmediately.Beforeinsertingnewbatteries,
thoroughly clean the battery compartment with a damp paper towel, or follow the battery manufacturer’s recommendations
for cleanup.
Disposable (non-rechargeable) batteries only:
● CautionRiskofexplosionifbatteryisreplacedbyanincorrecttype.Useandreplaceonlywiththecorrectsizeandtype
(alkaline,zinc-carbon,orzinc-chloride)ofbatteries.
Rechargeable batteries only:
● CautionRiskofexplosionifbatteryisreplacedbyanincorrecttype.Useandreplaceonlywiththesametypeandratingas
the batteries provided.
● Chargeonlywiththerechargerprovidedwiththeproduct.
Lithium button cell batteries only:
● PerchlorateMaterial--specialhandlingmayapply.See:www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate
Headset Devices
Extendedexposuretohighvolumeswhenusingaheadsetmayresultintemporaryorpermanenthearingloss.
To prevent damage to your headset, avoid sitting or stepping on the headset, its cable, or the cable connector.
Webcam Devices
Webcam with magnetic and adhesive mounting
After the adhesive attachment disc has been applied to the mounting surface, removing it may damage the cosmetic coating
and/orleaveanadhesiveresidue.
ApplyingtheattachmentdiscnexttoordirectlytoaCRT-baseddisplayscreenmaycausepermanentvisualdistortionofthe
displayed image near the area mounted.
Wireless Devices
Before boarding any aircraft or packing a wireless device in luggage that will be checked, remove the batteries from the
wirelessdeviceorturnthewirelessdeviceoff(ifithasanon/offswitch).Wirelessdevicescantransmitradiofrequency(RF)
energy,muchlikeacellulartelephone,wheneverbatteriesareinstalledandthewirelessdeviceisturnedon(ifithasanon/off
switch).
Keyboard and Mouse Devices
Health Warning
Useofakeyboardormousemaybelinkedtoseriousinjuriesordisorders.
Whenusingacomputer,aswithmanyactivities,youmayexperienceoccasionaldiscomfortinyourhands,arms,shoulders,
neck,orotherpartsofyourbody.However,ifyouexperiencesymptomssuchaspersistentorrecurringdiscomfort,pain,
throbbing, aching, tingling, numbness, burning sensation, or stiffness, DO NOT IGNORE THESE WARNING SIGNS.
PROMPTLY SEE A QUALIFIED HEALTH PROFESSIONAL, even if symptoms occur when you are not working at your computer.
Symptomslikethesecanbeassociatedwithpainfulandsometimespermanentlydisablinginjuriesordisordersofthenerves,
muscles,tendons,orotherpartsofthebody.Thesemusculoskeletaldisorders(MSDs)includecarpaltunnelsyndrome,
tendonitis, tenosynovitis, and other conditions.
WhileresearchersarenotyetabletoanswermanyquestionsaboutMSDs,thereisgeneralagreementthatmanyfactorsmay
be linked to their occurrence, including: overall health, stress and how one copes with it, medical and physical conditions, and
how a person positions and uses his or her body during work and other activities (including use of a keyboard or mouse). The
amount of time a person performs an activity may also be a factor.
Someguidelinesthatmayhelpyouworkmorecomfortablywithyourcomputerandpossiblyreduceyourriskofexperiencing
anMSDcanbefoundinthe“HealthyComputingGuide”installedwiththisdevice’ssoftware.Ifthisdevicedidnotcomewith
software,youcanaccessthe“HealthyComputingGuide”at
www.microsoft.com/hardwareor(intheUnitedStatesonly)bycalling(800)360-7561torequestaCDatnocharge.
Ifyouhavequestionsabouthowyourownlifestyle,activities,ormedical,orphysicalconditionmayberelatedtoMSDs,seea
qualiedhealthprofessional.
