before the battery completely discharges.
3.3 LED Indicators
The red LED is ON while charging the battery and the green LED is ON when the battery is fully charged.
3.4 Guidelines for Battery Pack Use and Disposal
The following are general guidelines for the safe use and disposal of batteries:
Store the terminal and the spare batteries between 20 to 30 ºC (68 to 86 ºF) in order to maintain
optimal battery performance.
Standard batteries must be charged at a temperature ranging from 0 to 45℃ (±3℃).
The battery level may not be displayed correctly for a few minutes after the disconnection if the
unit is disconnected from power supply before the charging cycle is completed.
The Terminal could get warm during charging. This is normal and does not mean a malfunction.
To achieve the best battery life, turn off the radios not in use.
The rechargeable battery pack is not initially charged. Charge the battery before using. See
below.
By default, the battery pack is disconnected at the factory to avoid damage due to excessive
draining. Annual replacement of rechargeable battery pack avoids possible risks or
abnormalities and ensures maximum performance.
WARNING: DO NOT attempt to charge damp/wet terminals or batteries. All components must be dry before
connecting to an external power source.
WARNING: Never throw a used battery in the trash. It contains heavy metals and should be recycled according to
local guidelines.
WARNING: Storage of batteries for a long time at fully charged status or at fully discharged status should be
avoided. Only in cases of long storage to av
recharge the battery every two-three months to keep the charge status at a medium level.
WARNING: Installing, charging and/or any other action should be done by following this manual.
The battery pack may get hot, explode, ignite, and/or cause serious injury if exposed to abusive
conditions.
If the battery pack is replaced with an unauthorized battery, there is risk of explosion or damage
to your terminal.
Do not place the battery pack in or near a fire or heat; do not place the battery pack in direct
sunlight, or use or store the battery pack inside unventilated areas in hot weather; do not place
the battery pack in microwave ovens, dryer, high pressure containers, on induction cookware or
similar device. Doing so may cause the battery pack to generate heat, explode or ignite. Using
the battery pack in this manner may also result in a loss of performance and a shortened life
expectancy.
Use only a Handheld approved power supply. The use of an alternative power supply will void
the product warranty, may cause product damage and may cause heat, explosion or unit to
ignite.
The area in which the units are charged should be clear of debris and combustible materials or
chemicals.
Do not use the battery pack in any other manner outside its intended use in the Terminal and
peripherals.
Do not short-circuit the battery pack contacts connecting the positive terminal and negative
terminal. This might happen, for example, when you carry a spare battery pack in your pocket
or purse; accidental short circuiting can occur when a metallic object such as a coin, clip, or
pen causes direct connection of the contacts of the battery pack (these look like metal strips on
the battery pack). Short circuiting the terminals may damage the battery pack or the
connecting object.
Do not apply voltages to the battery pack contacts.
Do not pierce the battery pack with nails, strike it with a hammer, step on it or otherwise subject
it to strong impacts or shocks.
Do not disassemble or modify (i.e. bend, crush or deform) the battery pack. The battery pack
contains safety and protection devices, which, if damaged, may cause the battery pack to
generate heat, explode or ignite.
In case of leakage of liquid from the battery, avoid contact with liquid the skin or eyes. If the
contact occurs, immediately wash the affected area with water and consult a doctor.
Do not solder directly onto the battery pack.
Do not expose the battery pack to liquids.
Avoid any knocks or excessive vibrations. If the device or the battery is dropped, especially on
a hard surface, you should take it to the nearest Authorized Repair Center for inspection before
continuing to use it.
Do not replace the battery pack when the device is turned on.
Do not use the battery pack if it is damaged in any way.
Battery pack usage by children should be supervised.
Collect and recycle waste batteries separately from the device in comply with European
Directive 2006/66/EC, 2011/65/EU, 2012/19/EU and subsequent modifications, US and China
regulatory and others laws and regulations about environment.
NOTE: In order to guarantee an adequate operating autonomy, when replacing the battery pack, the Terminal checks the
battery energy level. If the battery is not sufficiently charged, the Terminal does not turn on. In this case, either
substitute the battery pack with a charged one (sufficiently charged) or plug it into the direct power supply.
