`
`Radio and television interference
`
`The equipment described in this manual generates. uses. and can radiate
`radio-frequency energy. If it is not installed and used properly—that is.
`in strict accordance with Apple‘s instructions—it may cause interference
`with radio and television reception.
`
`This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a
`Class B digital device in accordance with the specifications in Part|5 of
`FCC rules. These specifications are designed to provide reasonable
`
`protection against such interference in a residential installation.
`However. there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
`particular installation.
`I
`
`You can determine whether your computer is causing interference by
`
`turning it off. lfthe interference stops, it was probably caused by the
`computer or one of the peripheral devices.
`
`if your computer system does cause interference to radio or television
`
`reception. try to correct the interference by using one or more of the
`foliowing measures:
`I Turn the television or radio antenna until the interference stops.
`I Move the computer to one side or the other of the television
`or radio.
`
`I Move the computer farther away from the television or radio.
`I Plug the computer into an outlet that is on a different circuit from
`the television or radio. (That is. make certain the device and the
`television or radio are on circuits controlled by different circuit
`
`breakers or fuses.)
`
`If necessary. consult your Apple-authorized reseller or an experienced
`radioftelevision technician for additional suggestions. You may find
`helpful the following booklet, prepared by the Federal Communications
`Commission: interference Handbook (stock number 004-000-00345-4}.
`This booklet is available from the US. Government Printing Office,
`Washington. DC 20402.
`
`IMPORTANT Changes or modifications to this product not authorized by
`Apple Computer. lnc., could void the FCC Certification and negate your
`authority to operate the product.
`
`This product was tested for FCC compliance under conditions that
`included the use of shielded cables and connectors'between system
`components. it is important that you use shielded cables and connectors
`to reduce the possibility of causing interference to radios, television
`sets. and other electronic devices. For Apple peripheral devices. you can
`obtain the pmper shielded cables from your Apple-authorized reSeller.
`
`For non-Apple peripheral devices, contact the manufacturer or dealer
`for assistance.
`

`
`

`

`IMPORTANT
`
`This device complies with Part l5 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to
`the following two conditions:
`
`(I) this device may not cause harmful interference, and
`(2) this device must accept any interference received, including
`interference that may cause undesired operation.
`
`This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a
`Class B digital device in accordanca with the specifications in Part l5 of
`FCC rules. See instructions if interference to radio or television
`
`reception is suspected.
`
`DOC Class B Compliance This digital apparatus does not exceed the
`Class B limits for radio noise emissions from digital apparatus set out in
`the radio interference regulations of the Canadian Department of
`Communications.

`
`Introduction
`
`This handbook is a reference guide for the Newton
`MessagePad device. It contains detailed instructions
`about using Newton.
`
`This book helps answer specific questions. To learn the
`fundamentals, read the MessagePad Setup Guide.
`
`Seems; casts. assets esgnteeeece
`
`As you work with your Newton device, follow these
`safeguards to protect yourself and the device. Failure
`to cemply with these safeguards may cause injury and
`resulting damage to the device may not be covered
`by warranty.
`'
`
`a Take care not to break the glass screen. Don’t drop
`Newton. Don’t subject it to any strong impact. Don't
`put it into your back pocket, because if you sit on it,
`the glass may break. Always store Newton in a case
`that has a stiff plate that can protect the screen.
`
`'
`
`I Don’t press too hard on the screen when writing,
`drawing, or tapping buttons.
`
`11
`11
`
`

`

`Keep the device away from extreme heat. Don’t
`leave it on the dashboard or in the trunk of a car or
`
`near a heater.
`
`Use the device only in environments where
`the temperature is between 32° F and |04° F
`(0° C—40° C).
`
`Don't leave the device anyplace that is extremely
`dusty, damp, or wet.
`
`Be careful not to scratch the screen. Use only plastic-
`tipped pens intended for use with a touch-sensitive
`screen. Don’t use ink pens or any other sharp object.
`
`Never leave the card slot empty. if you haven’t put a
`storage or application card in it, leave the plastic
`protection card installed.
`
`Turn off the device when you’re not using it.
`
`In normal circumstances, turn off Newton only by
`using the power switch. To disconnect power
`completely, unplug the adapter.
`
`' Always turn off Newton before changing the
`batteries.
`
`To avoid battery leakage or lost data, replace the
`batteries as soon as they become weak (Ch. 23).
`
`Clean the screen only with a soft dry cloth. Do not
`use solvents.
`
`Clean the painted surfaces only with isopropyl
`alcohol (rubbing alcohol) and a soft dry cloth. Do not
`use other solvents.
`
`Keep the ports covered when you’re not using them.
`
`CHAPTER I

`
`

`

`I Do not use cables that are frayed or otherwise
`damaged. Hold a cable only by its connector—
`the plug, not the cord—when connecting or
`disconnecting it.
`
`I Never force a connector into a port if the connector
`and port do not join easily. Make sure that the
`connector matches the port and that it’s right side
`up before you attach it.
`
`Sesame Rae eerteeiee
`
`:- Always handle batteries carefully.
`
`I When replacing the lithium backup battery, follow
`the instructions in Chapter 23. Be especially careful
`to insert the battery + side up as failing to do so
`could be hazardous.
`
`- Do not short-circuit the battery terminals—that is,
`do not touch both terminals with a metal object.
`Doing so may cause an explosion or a fire.
`
`I Do not dr0p, puncture, disassemble, mutilate, or
`incinerate the batteries.
`
`:- Recharge only rechargeable batteries, and then only
`as directed in the manual.
`
`I Do not leave batteries in hot locations.

`which keyboard you need.

`
`Yes Newton will be able to recognize the word in the
`future. if you use this word frequently, you’ll save
`time.
`
`No If you add many short words to the word list, it
`slows down Newton’s text recognizer and increases
`the chance of mistakes. if possible, avoid adding
`abbreviations, initials, and acronyms that are only
`two-letters long.

`
`The capitalization you use when you type the word
`affects how it will be displayed on the screen when it
`is recognized:
`
`: Words in all lowercase letters (for example, “jet”)
`will be capitalized according to context.
`
`- Words with the first letter capitalized (for example,
`“Jet”) will always be capitalized.
`
`- Words with all capital Eetters (for example, “JET”)
`will always be displayed in all capitals.

`
