Battery Information
Symbol rechargeable battery packs are designed and constructed to the highest standards within the
industry.
However, there are limitations to how long a battery can operate or be stored before needing replacement.
Many factors affect the actual life cycle of a battery pack, such as heat, cold, harsh environmental conditions
and severe drops.
When batteries are stored over six (6) months, some irreversible deterioration in overall battery quality may
occur. Store batteries discharged in a dry, cool place, removed from the equipment to prevent loss of
capacity, rusting of metallic parts and electrolyte leakage. When storing batteries for one year or longer, they
should be charged and discharged at least once a year. If an electrolyte leakage is observed, avoid any
contact with affected area and properly dispose of the battery.
Replace the battery when a significant loss of run time is detected.
Standard warranty period for all Symbol batteries is 30 days, regardless if the battery was purchased
separately or included as part of the mobile computer or bar code scanner. For more information on Symbol
batteries, please visit:
http:/mysymbolcare.symbol.com/battery/batbasics1.html.
Battery Charging Note
To charge the battery for the mobile device, battery and charger temperatures must be between +32° F and
+104° F (0° C and +40° C).
Taiwan
EPA (Environmental Protection Administration) requires dry battery producing or importing firms in
accordance with Article 15 of the Waste Disposal Act are required to indicate the recycling marks on the
batteries used in sales, giveaway or promotion. Contact a qualified Taiwanese recycler for proper battery
disposal.

DESCRIPTION OF OTHER RIGHTS AND LIMITATIONS.
• Speech/Handwriting Recognition. If the DEVICE Software includes speech and/or handwriting
recognition component(s), you should understand that speech and handwriting recognition are
inherently statistical processes and that errors can occur in the component's recognition of your
handwriting, and the final conversion into text. Neither Symbol Technologies, Inc. nor its suppliers
shall be liable for any damages arising out of errors in the speech and handwriting recognition
process.
• Limitations on Reverse Engineering, Decompilation and Disassembly. You may not reverse

of the DEVICE.
• Single EULA. The package for the DEVICE may contain multiple versions of this EULA, such as
multiple translations and/or multiple media versions (e.g., in the user documentation and in the

• Security Updates/Digital Rights Management. Content providers are using the digital rights
management technology (“DRM”) contained in your DEVICE to protect the integrity of their content
(“Secure Content”) so that their intellectual property, including copyright, in such content is not
misappropriated. Portions of the DEVICE Software and third party applications such as media players
use DRM to play Secure Content (“DRM Software”). If the DRM Software's security has been
compromised, owners of Secure Content (“Secure Content Owners”) may request that MS block the
ability of DRM license servers and personal computers to deliver new licenses that enable an
affected DEVICE to play Secure Content. This action does not alter the DRM Software's ability to play
unprotected content. A list of revoked DRM Software is sent to your DEVICE whenever you download
a license for Secure Content from the Internet or from your personal computer. You therefore agree
that MS may, in conjunction with such license, also download revocation lists onto your DEVICE on
behalf of Secure Content Owners. MS will not retrieve any personally identifiable information, or any
other information, from your DEVICE by downloading such revocation lists.
• Consent to Use of Data. You agree that MS, Microsoft Corporation, their affiliates and/or their
designated agent may collect and use technical information gathered in any manner as part of
product support services related to the DEVICE Software. MS, Microsoft Corporation, their affiliates
and/or their designated agent may use this information solely to improve their products or to provide
customized services or technologies to you. MS, Microsoft Corporation, their affiliates and/or their
designated agent may disclose this information to others, but not in a form that personally identifies
you.
• Internet Gaming/Update Features. If the DEVICE Software provides, and you choose to utilize, the
Internet gaming or update features within the DEVICE Software, it is necessary to use certain
computer system, hardware, and software information to implement the features. By using these
features, you explicitly authorize MS, Microsoft Corporation and/or their designated agent to use this
information solely to improve their products or to provide customized services or technologies to you.
MS or Microsoft Corporation may disclose this information to others, but not in a form that personally
identifies you.
• Internet-Based Services Components. The DEVICE Software may contain components that
enable and facilitate the use of certain Internet-based services. You acknowledge and agree that MS,
Microsoft Corporation, their affiliates and/or their designated agent may automatically check the
version of the DEVICE Software and/or its components that you are utilizing and may provide
upgrades or supplements to the DEVICE Software that may be automatically downloaded to your
DEVICE.

Microsoft Corporation, their affiliates and/or their designated agent to provide or make available to
you SOFTWARE updates, supplements, add-on components, or Internet-based services components of
the SOFTWARE after the date you obtain your initial copy of the SOFTWARE (“Supplemental
Components”).
• If Symbol Technologies, Inc. provides or makes available to you Supplemental Components and
no other EULA terms are provided along with the Supplemental Components, then the terms of
this EULA shall apply.
• If MS, Microsoft Corporation, their affiliates and/or their designated agent make available
Supplemental Components, and no other EULA terms are provided, then the terms of this EULA
shall apply, except that the MS, Microsoft Corporation or affiliate entity providing the

or (ii) webcasting or any other form of transmission received from any third party sites. If the DEVICE
Software provides links to third party sites, those links are provided to you only as a convenience, and
the inclusion of any link does not imply an endorsement of the third party site by MS, Microsoft
Corporation, their affiliates and/or their designated agent.
