switched off wherever you are requested to do so in
hospitals, clinics, healthcare facilities or by airline
staff. These requests are designed to prevent possible
interference with sensitive equipments.
RF Exposure Guidelines
Safety Information
Reducing RF Exposure – Use Properly
Only operate the device in accordance with the
instructions supplied.
The device complies with internationally recognized standards
covering human exposure to electromagnetic fields. For
information on international human exposure to electromagnetic
fields, refer to the Zebra Declaration of Conformity (DoC) at
zebra.com/doc.
Use only Zebra tested and approved headset, belt-clips,
holsters, and similar accessories to ensure RF exposure
compliance. If applicable, follow the instructions for use as
detailed in the accessory guide.
The use of third-party belt clips, holsters, and similar
accessories may not comply with RF exposure compliance
requirements and should be avoided.
For further information on the safety of RF energy from wireless
devices, refer to RF exposure and assessment standards
section at zebra.com/responsibility.
Handheld or Body-Worn Devices
To satisfy RF exposure requirements, this device must operate

or nearby persons.
To satisfy RF exposure requirements, this device must be wrist-
worn only and where applicable, use only with Zebra tested and
approved accessories.
Optical Devices
Laser Devices
Class 2 laser scanners use a low power, visible light
diode. As with any very bright light source such as the
sun, the user should avoid staring directly into the light beam.
Momentary exposure to a Class 2 laser is not known to be
harmful.
CAUTION: Use of controls, adjustments, or the
performance of procedures other than those specified
in the supplied product documentation may result in
hazardous laser light exposure.
The WS5001 deflector
includes mandatory laser safety warning
markings and must always be fitted when in use.

Power Supply
WARNING ELECTRICAL SHOCK: Use only a
Zebra approved, Certified ITE [SELV] power supply
with appropriate electrical ratings. Use of alternative
power supply will invalidate any approvals given to
this unit and may be dangerous.
Batteries and Power Packs
This information applies to Zebra-approved batteries and power
packs containing batteries.
Battery Information
CAUTION: Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by
an incorrect type. Dispose of batteries according to
instructions.
Use only Zebra approved batteries. Accessories
which have battery charging capability are approved for use with
the following battery models:
•Model BT-000446B (3.85 VDC, 1300 mAh)
•Model BT-000446 (3.85 VDC, 800 mAh)
Zebra approved rechargeable battery packs are designed and
constructed to the highest standards within the industry.
However, there are limitations as 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 months, some irreversible
deterioration in overall battery quality may occur. Store batteries
at half charge 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, the charge level should be verified at least once a year
and charged to half charge.
Replace the battery when a significant loss of run time is
detected.
•Standard warranty period for all Zebra batteries is one year,
regardless if the battery was purchased separately or included
as part of the host device. For more information on Zebra
batteries, please visit: zebra.com/batterydocumentation and
select the Battery Best Practices link.
Battery Safety Guidelines
IMPORTANT – SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS – SAVE
THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING – When using this product basic safety
precautions should always be followed, including the
following:
The area in which the units are charged should be
clear of debris and combustible materials or chemicals.
Particular care should be taken where the device is charged in a
non-commercial environment.
•Read all the instructions before using the product.
•Follow battery usage, storage, and charging guidelines found
in the user's guide.
•Improper battery use may result in a fire, explosion, or other
hazard.
•To charge the mobile device battery, the battery and charger
temperatures must be between 2°C and 46°C (35.6°F and
114.8°F).
•Do not use incompatible batteries and chargers. Use of an
incompatible battery or charger may present a risk of fire,
explosion, leakage, or other hazard. If you have any questions
about the compatibility of a battery or a charger, contact Zebra
support.
•Do not disassemble or open, crush, bend or deform, puncture,
or shred. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit
unpredictable behavior resulting in fire, explosion, or risk of
injury.
•Severe impact from dropping any battery-operated device on
a hard surface could cause the battery to overheat.
•Do not short circuit a battery or allow metallic or conductive
objects to contact the battery terminals.
•Do not modify, disassemble, or remanufacture, attempt to
insert foreign objects into the battery, immerse or expose to
water, rain, snow or other liquids, or expose to fire, explosion,
or other hazard.
•Do not leave or store the equipment in or near areas that
might get very hot, such as in a parked vehicle or near a
radiator or other heat source. Do not place battery into a
microwave oven or dryer.
•To reduce the risk of injury, close supervision is necessary
when used near children.
•Please follow local regulations to promptly dispose of used re-
chargeable batteries.
•Do not dispose of batteries in fire. Exposure to temperatures
over 100°C (212°F) may cause explosion.
•Seek medical advice immediately if a battery has been
swallowed.
•In the event of a battery leak, do not allow the liquid to come in
contact with the skin or eyes. If contact has been made, wash
the affected area with large amounts of water and seek
medical advice.
•If you suspect damage to your equipment or battery, contact
Zebra support to arrange for inspection.
