Vehicle Installation Safety

Caution: Only trained and qualified personnel should be allowed to install,

replace, or service this equipment.

Caution: DO NOT USE THE PRINTER WHILE DRIVING, as this may result in

property damage or personal injury. Zebra Technologies Corp. does not promote
the use of these products except when parked or stationary, and is not responsible
for any loss resulting from the use or misuse of our products. Most importantly,
we do not want to see harm come to our customers or anyone else.

Caution: Do not install the Vehicle Cradle where it will be exposed to precipi-

tation or excessive condensation.

Caution: Do not install the Vehicle Cradle on or near an airbag cover plate or

within an airbag zone. Also, do not install the Vehicle Cradle in a location that will
affect vehicle safety or drivability.

Caution: The means of routing and securing the Power Input cable from the

Vehicle Cradle through to the vehicle power source is extremely important. Haz-
ards associated with improper wiring can be severe. To avoid unintentional contact
between the wire and any sharp edges, provide the cable with proper bushings
and clamping where it passes through openings. If the wire is subjected to sharp
surfaces and excess engine vibration, the wiring harness insulation can wear away,
causing a short between the bare wire and the chassis. This can start a fire.

Caution: The vehicle charging circuit must neither undercharge nor over-

charge the vehicle battery. Either fault condition in the vehicle electrical system
can cause a no-charge condition in the printer battery.

Warning: It is very important to ensure you make the correct cable to power

source connections, because electrical energy from a vehicle’s power system can
harm equipment and people.

Caution: If you need to jump start your vehicle from another vehicle battery,

disconnect the power cable running to the Vehicle Cradle. Failure to do so can
result in damage to your mobile printer and/or the Vehicle Cradle itself.
