Xplore Technologies shall not be liable under any theory of
liability (including, without limitation, contract, tort, or
statutory law) for any loss, damage, personal injury, or
other damage of any nature (including, without limitation,
direct, special, incidental, or consequential damages)
arising directly or indirectly as a result of improper or
inappropriate placement, installation, or use of its products
or any other application. To safely install and use Motion by
Xplore products, full consideration of occupants, systems
(e.g., the location of fuel lines, navigation systems, brakes
lines, electrical, drive train or other systems), air-bags and
other back-up, warning, or safety equipment is required.
Without limiting the foregoing, Xplore specifically
disclaims any responsibility for the placement, use, or
installation of its products not consistent with (i) the
original manufacturer’s or governmental or regulatory
specifications and recommendations for the environment
where the products will be placed, used, or installed, (ii)
Xplore written product instruction sheets, or (iii)
workmanship standards.
Setup precautions
Review the following setup precautions:
•
Read the installation instructions before connecting the
Tablet PC to the power supply.
•
If you put the Tablet PC in a docking station, place it on
a level surface so it does not fall over and damage the
unit, the docking station, or other components.
•
When you move the Tablet PC between environments
with very different humidity and/or temperature
ranges, allow sufficient time to adjust to the new
humidity or temperature.
•
Do not drop the Tablet PC or subject it to other
mechanical shocks as this can cause cosmetic
imperfections and/or system malfunctions.
•
Do not apply heavy pressure to the Tablet PC or subject
it to strong impact. Excessive pressure or impact can
cause damage to Tablet PC components or otherwise
cause malfunctions.
•
Do not use the Tablet PC AC adapter for other
equipment. This can generate heat or fire. In addition,
do not use other AC adapters with the Tablet PC.
•
When using the Tablet PC for long periods of time, rest
your eyes for approximately 10 to 15 minutes every
hour. Failing to rest your eyes can cause eye strain and
other deterioration of eye health.
Basic personal safety precautions
Review the following personal safety precautions:
•
Do not attempt to service the Tablet PC or its
components yourself. Perform only those service
procedures for which Xplore provides special
instructions, for example, hot-swapping a battery or
installing a peripheral device.
•
Turn off the Tablet PC completely to clean it, its
components, or chassis, or perform operations
requiring similar steps. To do this, turn off the power
switch, then disconnect the AC adapter from the
electrical outlet.
•
Do not operate the Tablet PC near water, such as near a
bathtub, kitchen sink or laundry tub, in a wet basement,
by a swimming pool, or in the rain while plugged into
an electrical outlet. The cases, portfolios, and other
accessories currently offered by Xplore are not designed
to be water-resistant or watertight. Do not submerse
the tablet in water or other fluids.
•
Do not connect or disconnect any cables or perform
maintenance or reconfiguration of this product during
an electrical storm.
•
Avoid using the wireless modem, wireless LAN, or wired
LAN during an electrical storm, because there is a
remote risk of electric shock from lightning.
•
Do not push foreign objects into air vents or other
openings of the Tablet PC or accessories, such as the
optional external optical disk drive bays. Doing so can
short out interior components and may cause fire or
electric shock.
•
If the Motion CL920 by Xplore battery pack leaks and
the fluid gets in your eyes, do not rub them. Instead,
rinse your eyes with clean running water and
immediately seek medical attention. Otherwise, eye
injury may result.
•
If leakage from the battery pack comes in contact with
your skin or clothing, immediately wash it away with
running water. Otherwise, skin inflammation can occur.
Do not operate the Tablet PC or power adapter for
extended periods of time with the base resting directly
on exposed skin. The surface temperature can rise
during normal operation, particularly when AC power is
used. Sustained contact with exposed skin can cause
discomfort or burns.
Tablet PC precautions
Review the following Tablet PC precautions:
•
Certain environments may contain particles or debris
that can adhere to the Tablet PC display or to the Tablet
PC pen tip. To avoid damaging the display, clean it
frequently with the cleaning cloth offered by Xplore or
with a soft cloth. Apply window-type cleaner or water to
the cloth, and then clean the tablet with the cloth. For a
list of approved cleaning solutions, see
www.motioncomputing.com/us/products/rugged-
tablets/CL920#accessories.
•
Change pen tips regularly, especially if you work in an
environment that contains particles or debris. Dropping
the pen onto a rough surface may damage the pen tip
or embed particles in it that can damage the Tablet PC
display. For instructions about changing the pen tips,
see the
User’s Guide
at
www.motioncomputing.com/us/support/userdocs
.
•
Store the pen in the pen bay of the Tablet PC. Carrying it
in a pocket, toolbox, or similar receptacle that contains
particles or debris may damage the pen tip or embed
particles in it that can damage the Tablet PC display.
•
For audio sound pressure statements, see “Sound
pressure/volume notice” on page 4.
