2.1. BATTERY
Main Battery
The mobile computer is powered by a rechargeable 3.8V / 3100mAh Li-ion battery
pack, and it takes approximately 4 hours to charge it to full from the power adaptor.
However, the charging time may vary by your working condition.
Sp are B at t e ry
A spare battery pack is provided as an accessory. We recommend keeping a fully
charged spare battery at hand in order to replace the main battery when it is nearly
drained out.
Backup Battery
Settled on the main board is a backup battery that keeps the mobile computer in
suspension when the main battery is depleted. The backup battery is a 60 mAh
rechargeabl e Li-ion battery, and can retain data in the DRAM for 30 minutes when it
is fully cha rged (as long as wireless modul es on the mobile compu ter are inactive).
The backup battery can be charged by the main battery or the power adapter, and
takes approximately 3.5 hours to charge to full.
Warning:
(1) The battery cover must be secured in position. If not, the mobile computer cannot
turn on by pressing the power ke y or wake up by pressing the scan key.
(2) For a new battery, make sure it is fully charged before using.
(3) To avoid data loss, when replacing the main battery, make sure you replace it with
a well-charged spare battery pack. Always prepare a spare battery at hand,
especially when you are on the road.

2.1.4. POWER MANAGEMENT
For any portab le device, p ower managemen t is a criti cal i ssu e especially wh en you are on
the road. Below are some tips to help you save battery power.
Warning: Using backlight, wireless connectivity, and peripheral devices while on
battery power will substantially reduce battery power.
Bring an additional main battery pack with you on the road.
End wireless connections (such as Bluetooth, 802.11a/b/g/n, GSM/GPRS, and GPS)
which are not in use.
Shorten the screen turn off time. See Screen Timeout Settings.
Reduce the screen brightness level. See Screen Brightness.
Shut down automatic data syncing of applications (such as Email, Calendar,
Contacts).

2.2. MEMORY
CAUTION OF DATA LOSS
Flash Memory (ROM)
8GB flash memory for storing the OS (Android 4.4) and custom application programs.
Random-access Memory (RAM)
1GB RAM for storing and running programs, as well as storing program data.
Expansion Slot
The mobile computer is equipped with one microSD card sl ot which accommodates an
SD card up to 32 GB. High capacity memory card (microSDHC) is supported as well.
When the main battery is removed or drained, the backup battery on the main board
takes over to supply the mobile computer and keep it in suspension. A fully charged
backup battery will retain the data in the RAM for 30 m inutes. When th e backup battery
is drained out as well, only the contents of RTC wil l be retained. A ll other unsaved d ata
will be lost.
If you w ant to put away the mobile computer for a couple of days, you should be aware

This phone has been tested and rated for use with hearing aids for some of the wireless
technologies that it uses. However, there may be some newer wireless technologies used in this
phone that have not been tested yet for use with hearing aids. It is important to try the different
features of this phone thoroughly and in different locations, using your hearing aid or cochlear
implant, to determine if you hear any interfering noise. Consult your service provider or the
manufacturer of this phone for information on hearing aid compatibility. If you have questions
about return or exchange policies, consult your service
To determine the compatibility of a WD and a particular hearing aid, simply add the numerical
part of the hearing aid category (e.g. M2/T2=2) with the numerical part of the WD emission
rating (e.g., M3=3) to arrive at the system classification for this particular combination of WD
and hearing aid. A sum of 5 would indicate that the WD and hearing aid would provide normal
use, and a sum of 6 or greater would indicate that the WD and hearing aid would provide
excellent performance. A category sum of less than 4 would likely result in a performance that is
judged unacceptable by the hearing aid user.
WHAT IS HEARING AID COMPATIBILITY?
The Federal Communications Commission has implemented rules and a rating system
designed to enable people who wear hearing aids to more effectively use these wireless
telecommunications devices. The standard for compatibility of digital wireless phones with
hearing aids is set forth in American National Standard Institute (ANSI) standard C63.19. There
are two sets of ANSI standards with ratings from one to four (four being the best rating): an “M”
rating for reduced interference making it easier to hear conversations on the phone when using
the hearing aid microphone, and a “T” rating that enables the phone to be used with hearing
aids operating in the telecoil mode thus reducing unwanted background noise.
HOW WILL I KNOW WHICH WIRELESS PHONES ARE HEARING AID COMPATIBLE?
The Hearing Aid Compatibility rating is displayed on the wireless phone box.
A phone is considered Hearing Aid Compatible for acoustic coupling (microphone mode) if it has
an “M3” or “M4” rating. A digital wireless phone is considered Hearing Aid Compatible for
inductive coupling (telecoil mode) if it has a “T3” or “T4” rating.
The tested M-Rating and T-Rating for this device (FCC ID: Q3N-RS30) are M3 and T3.
HOW WILL I KNOW IF MY HEARING AID WILL WORK WITH A PARTICULAR DIGITAL
WIRELESS PHONE?
You’ll want to try a number of wireless phones so that you can decide which works the best with
your hearing aids. You may also want to talk with your hearing aid professional about the extent
to which your hearing aids are immune to interference, if they have wireless phone shielding,
and whether your hearing aid has a HAC rating.
