Introduction — Safety and Maintenance The serial number is located on the label (with a bar code) on the bottom side of the computer and begins with “SY”. Safety and Maintenance You can use your computer under a wide range of environmental conditions. However, to ensure long use and continued high performance, consider the following factors when setting up your computer: • Follow all warnings and instructions noted in this documentation and in the Windows Help program. • The first time you use your computer, we recommend that you carefully read the Making Connections section of this manual and initialize the battery to ensure optimum battery performance. • Unplug the computer from the power outlet before cleaning. Use a damp cloth for cleaning. Do not use aerosols, solvents, or strong detergents. • Do not use the computer near open water or other liquids. Never spill liquid onto the computer. • Do not place the computer in an unstable location where it might slip or be knocked over. Serious damage could result from a fall. • Slots and openings in the system cabinet are for ventilation purposes. Do not block or cover these openings or the system could overheat. Do not use or store the computer near a source of heat or dust. • On the base or rear panel of this notebook, there is a label with information on the power requirements of this system. These requirements must be followed. If you are unsure of your local power supply, consult your dealer or local Power Company. • Do not step on or place anything on the power cord. • If you use the computer with an extension cord, ensure that the total ampere ratings of all the devices sharing the extension do not exceed the rating of the extension cord or the rating of the wall outlet. • Never push foreign objects into the computer through any of the slots or openings. Dangerous voltages are present, which could cause electric shock or fire, or damage sensitive components. © 2003 AVERATEC, Inc. Introduction — Checklists • For best results, use a power strip with a built-in surge protector.

Q1, it has been revised as 15.247 and please refer to the attached revised test report. [Steve Cheng] ok. Q2, from the page 12 of the antenna spec. it shows the general spec. that the max. of the antenna gain can reach to 3dBi; yet actually the max. one measured is 0.11dBi as shows on the page of 11 and that's the one we used for test. [Steve Cheng] ok. Q3, the output power is 53.95mW which is higher than 49.24, and we have corrected it. [Steve Cheng] ok. Q4, the user manual has already stated that 20cm distance from the antenna to user should be maintained and please refer to page 60. Please check if it's enough. [Steve Cheng] Even though you already indicated the 20cm RF safe separation distance in the user manual, But you still have to consider if it is achievable for the end user in normal operation condition. Please provide the distance between antenna and laptop bottom in normal operation condition. . Thank you and Best Regards, Lucy Hi Lucy, Do you mean SAR data for "AN03T3292 COMPAL LAPTOP WITH 11BWIRELESS"? Yes I did received the Compal SAR data but still awaiting questions be answered to close up the project.
