Non-observance of the safety information or incorrect use of the battery
can lead to excessive current flow, to the discharge of harmful substances,
excessive heat development, explosion or fire.

Transportation and storage:

♦ Do not transport or store the battery together with metal objects such as necklaces,

hairpins, etc. Doing so may short circuit the battery, which could result in excessive
current flow and possibly cause leakage of battery fluid, heat generation, bursting
or fire. When carrying or storing batteries, use an electrically nonconductive
(insulated) case.

♦ When the equipment is expected not to be used for a long time do not store the

batteries exceeding the appropriate conditions as listed below. Otherwise its
performance will be degraded and its service life will be decreased.

▪ when the batteries are discharged and remain in the equipment: 1 week
▪ when the batteries are fully charged and remain in the switched off

equipment: 1 month

▪ long-term storage: see next note.

♦ When the battery is expected not to be used for a long time, take the battery out of

the equipment and store it in a dry place at or below room temperature. For an
optimum service life, the battery should be charged up to 20 to 40% when being
stored. After 12 months at the latest the device should be charged and

subsequently discharged. Otherwise, its performance will be degenerate and its
service life will be decreased.

♦ The storage temperature must not be below –20 or above +50°C.

Ambient conditions:

♦ The temperature may not be outside the admissible operating and storage

temperature range of -20 to +50 degrees centigrade. The temperature may be
within the range of 0 °C to +40 °C during charging.

♦ Do not discard the battery into fire and do not leave it in a hot place such as near a

fire or on a heater. Doing so melt the insulation, damage the sealing parts or
protective devices, cause leakage of battery fluid (Electrolyte) from the batteries,
bursting or fire.

♦ Do not immerse batteries in water or seawater, and do not allow them to become

wet. Batteries which have become wet must always be replaced with new ones
because internal short-circuits can cause dangerous heat emissions if further used.

♦ Do not throw batteries, and do not allow them to fall on hard surfaces.

Connection:

♦ Do not connect the battery to an electrical outlet, e.g. vehicle cigarette lighter,

power outlets, other power supply units, other charger, etc.

♦ Do not reverse the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals when inserting the

battery. Since the mechanical design of the battery enables you to insert in one
direction only, the battery must not be inserted into the opposite direction by force.

Handling:

♦ Protective devices to prevent danger are built into the battery. To ensure for a

proper operation, do not disassemble the battery or modify parts of it. If they are
damaged, this could result in excessive charging voltage, control loss during
charging or discharging, leakage of battery fluid, heat generation, bursting or fire.

♦ Do not disassemble Li-ion bare cells of the battery. There is the danger of flammable

fluid being spilt. It may also cause an internal or external short circuit, leakage of
battery fluid, heat generation, bursting or fire.

♦ Do not directly solder the battery. Doing so melt the insulation, damage the sealing

parts or protective devices, cause leakage of battery fluid (Electrolyte) from the
batteries, bursting or fire.

♦ Do not short-circuit the battery by directly connecting the positive (+) and negative

(-) terminals with objects such as wire. Short circuiting generates heat which may
damage the equipment. In the worst case this could result in leakage of battery
fluid, bursting or fire.

♦ Do not put the battery into a microwave oven or pressurised container. This could

result in leakage of battery fluid, bursting or fire.

♦ Do not pierce the battery with a nail or other sharp object, hit it with a hammer, or

step on it. This could result in leakage of battery fluid, bursting or fire.

Depending on the device being used, doing so may cause abnormal current flow,
leakage of battery fluid, heat generation, bursting or fire.

♦ If the battery becomes discolored or deformed, or in any way appears abnormal,

stop using it. Return it to the distributor or manufacturer from whom you purchased
it.

♦ Do not use or leave the battery in very high temperatures (for example, under

strong direct sunlight). Otherwise, it may cause leakage of battery fluid, bursting or
fire or its performance will be degenerate and its service life will be decreased.

♦ To ensure safety, the battery incorporates built-in safety devices. Do not use it in a

location where static electricity is greater than what the manufacturer guarantees.
Otherwise, the safety devices may be damaged, causing leakage of battery fluid,
expose of fire.

♦ Do not use the battery in other than the following conditions. Otherwise, it can

overheat or fire, or its performance will be degenerate and its service life will be
decreased.

▪ when the battery is charged: 0 °C ~ +40 °C
▪ when the battery is stored: -20 °C ~ +50 °C

Note: higher temperatures increase the self-discharge of the battery.

♦ Do not connect different assembled batteries together. And also do not connect

same assembled batteries in series, unless explicitly instructed by the user
information to do so.

Charging:

♦ When recharging, only use the battery charger specially provided by Skeye. Failure

to follow proper charging procedures may cause excessive voltage, excessive
current flow, loss of control during charging, leakage of battery fluid, heat
generation, bursting, or fire.

♦ Do not use or charge the battery near a heat source such as fire or heater or in

extremely hot weather.

♦ Do not charge a battery when it is cold (below 0 °C). This may cause impaired

performance and shortening of battery service life.

♦ If a battery is to be used for the first time or it has not been used for a long time,

be sure to charge it.

Health hazards:

♦ If a battery leaks, and the electrolyte enters the eye, do not rub but rinse out

thoroughly under flowing water and then seek medical assistance. Otherwise, eye
damage can result.

♦ If a battery leaks and the electrolyte makes contact with clothing or the skin, the

skin or clothing must be rinsed out under flowing water in order to prevent damage
to the skin.

Maintenance, service and disturbances:

♦ Lithium-ion batteries have a predetermined operating life. If the operating time

shortens excessively, this means that the battery life has expired. If it comes to
that point, stop use immediately and replace with new batteries.

3.4.2 Switching-off the skeye.e-motion

There are three ways to switch off your skeye.e-motion:

♦ Suspend mode (Standby)
♦ Automatic Standby
♦ Complete Power Off by Removing the Battery

3.4.2.1 Suspend Mode (Standby Mode)

Suspending a device means that it is inactive and thus consumes less power. A
suspended skeye.e-motion can be activated any time.

While suspending information in the RAM of the skeye.e-motion is maintained. If
the power supply is interrupted e.g. due to a discharged battery, information in
the RAM gets lost.

It is thus recommended that you store all current data in the flash or on Micro SD
card prior to suspending the skeye.e-motion (Standby Mode).

3.4.2.3 Complete Power Off by Removing the Battery

Completely power off your skeye.e-motion in the following situations:

♦ if you do not operate your skeye.e-motion for a longer period of time

(battery saving)

♦ when entering an aircraft.
♦ in explosive areas
♦ for shipping the skeye.e-motion

Removing the battery will delete the RAM after a while. In this case, all data in the
RAM e.g. installed programs, settings or stored files are lost!

Time data is maintained in the RAM in case of a completely charged buffer
(required charging time: about 10 s) in case of a HW 90400 with 128 MB DDR-RAM
about 30 s (time required for battery change).

If the buffer is not completely charged, the time decreases correspondingly.

We recommend before removing the battery:

1. Save data first.

2. Suspend the skeye.e-motion. Then wait for about 10 sec. Only then the RAM is

sustained.

3. At last, remove the battery.

5.2 SysBackup

Using SysBackup you can

• create

• restore and

• delete a backup.

NOTES:

⇒ Backup data saved with SysBackup should only be restored in one image and

on the same hardware under which they were created, as otherwise problems
may occur.

⇒ If the option for asking the user is deactivated before the backup is created

your are not prompted for confirmation after the booting process (see Fig. 19:
SysBackup

⇒ ).

⇒

SysBackup only stores and restores data but does not delete them. This might
be important in the following szenario:
When you need a cleaned up desktop you can delete the "My Computer" and
"Recycle Bin" symbols using a setting in "ExplorerConfig" as the symbols are
created on the desktop via RegistryKey. However, all other symbols on the
desktop are created in the \windows\desktop directory using *.Ink-files. From
there, they have to be deleted in the autostart directory using a corresponding
batch file as after a cold start of the device these files are automatically stored
at this location while booting and are not deleted when you restore a backup.

Install on your PC the program for data synchronisation of a PC with a mobile
device:

 Microsoft ActiveSync ⇒ for Windows XP

 Windows Mobile Device Center (WMDC) ⇒ for Windows Vista

 Device Stage ⇒ for Windows 7

These programs are available for free via www.Microsoft.com/getstarted. With
these programs you can handle the following tasks (between your desktop PC and
your skeye.e-motion):

• Add and remove programs on your skeye.e-motion

• Synchronise files

• Transfer and copy files

7.5 Connection of the Cradle in the Vehicle

The fixed installation of the cradle must only be performed by experts in the field
of vehicle electronics.

Power connection (12 V or 24 V) must only be established to a secured circuit.
The supplied fuse (in the fuse holder or car connector plug) must be additionally
used.

If you use a car socket or cigarette lighter jack to supply the voltage, ensure for a
correct polarity.

It is possible that there are special car types where the positive terminal and not
the negative terminal is connected to the vehicle chassis. In this case, the cradle
must not be used without any further action.

The input signal of the connection cable for the power connection is "Ignition
Sense". This way you can - when the vehicle is at a standstill - activate the
automatic switch to the energy-saving mode of the skeye.e-motion or switch on the
skeye.e-motion at the begin of the journey.
These functions require additional software.

If you do not use it due to installation reasons, you have to connect the wire for
"Ignition Sense" together with the positive wire.
