Charging the Battery
CAUTION:Ensure that you follow the guidelines for battery safety described in Battery Safety Guidelines on
page 199.
Use the mobile computer cradles, cables and spare battery chargers to charge the mobile computer main battery.
The main battery can be charged before insertion into the mobile computer or after it is installed. There are two
main batteries for the MC33XX, the 2740 mAh PowerPrecision+ standard battery (1X) and the 5200 mAh
PowerPrecision+ extended battery (2X). The MC33XX-G is compatible with the 5200 mAh PowerPrecision+
extended battery. The MC33XX-R/S are compatible with both the 2740 mAh PowerPrecision+ standard battery
and the 5200 mAh PowerPrecision+ extended battery. Use one of the spare battery chargers to charge the main
battery (out of the mobile computer) or one of the cradles to charge the main battery while it is installed in the
mobile computer.
Before using the mobile computer for the first time, fully charge the main battery until the green Charge LED
indicator remains lit and charge the battery using a cable or a cradle with the appropriate power supply. For
information about the accessories available for the MC33XX, see Accessories. The 2740 mAh PowerPrecision+
standard battery fully charges (0% to 90% capacity) in less than 2.2 hours and the 5200 mAh PowerPrecision+
extended battery fully charges (0% to 90% capacity) in less than 3.8 hours.
The MC33XX retains data in memory for at least five minutes when the mobile computer’s main battery is
removed.
When the main battery reaches a very low battery state, the battery retains data in memory for at least 15 hours.
Batteries must be charged within the 0° to +40° C (32° to 104° F) ambient temperature range.
The following accessories can be used to charge batteries:
1. Insert the mobile computer into a cradle. See Accessories for accessory setup.
2. The mobile computer starts to charge automatically. The Charge LED Indicator indicates the charge status. See
the table below for charging indications.
To charge the mobile computer using the cables:
1. Connect the MC33XX Communication/Charge Cable to the appropriate power source and connect to the mobile
computer. See Accessories for accessory setup.
2. The mobile computer starts to charge automatically. The Charge LED Indicator indicates the charge status.

The MC33XX 2740 mAh PowerPrecision+ standard battery charges from 0% to 90% in less than 2.2 hours at room
temperature.
32
Getting Started
The MC33XX 5200 mAh PowerPrecision+ extended battery charges from 0% to 90% in less than 3.8 hours at
room temperature.
The MC32N0 2740 mAh PowerPrecision standard battery charges from 0% to 90% in less than 3 hours at room
temperature.
The MC32N0 5200 mAh PowerPrecision extended battery charges from 0% to 90% in less than 5.5 hours at room
temperature.
Backup Power
The MC33XX is equipped with a supercapcitator (supercap) to provide backup power to the device when the main
battery is removed. The supercap will retain random access memory (RAM) data in memory for approximately five
minutes after the main battery is removed during Hot Swap.
IMPORTANT: The supercap is automatically charged from the main battery and requires approximately ten
minutes to fully charge.
Charging Temperature
Charge batteries in ambient temperatures from 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F) or up to 45°C (113°F) as reported by
the battery. To view battery temperature, touch > About phone > Battery information.
Note that charging is intelligently controlled by the MC33XX. To accomplish this, for small periods of time, the
MC33XX or accessory alternately enables and disables battery charging to keep the battery at acceptable
temperatures. The MC33XX or accessory indicates when charging is disabled due to abnormal temperatures via
its LED.
Charging Spare Batteries
See Accessories for information on using accessories to charge spare batteries.
Hot Swap Mode
The MC33XX provides a Hot Swap mode where the user can replace the battery without powering off the device.
When the user removes the battery, the display turns off and the device enters a low power state while in Hot Swap
mode. In Hot Swap mode, the MC33XX retains RAM data for approximately five minutes. Replace the battery
within five minutes to preserve memory persistence. If the user does not install a charged battery within five
minutes, data in RAM will be lost. During Hot Swap mode, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth remain connected for 30 seconds.
If the battery is not inserted within 30 seconds, Wi-Fi is disabled and then re-enabled when the device comes out of
Hot Swap mode and Bluetooth is reset when the device comes out of Hot Swap mode.
IMPORTANT: The supercap requires time to recharge after performing a Hot Swap or after the main battery is
fully depleted. Hot Swap mode will not retain data unless the supercap is fully charged.
Google Account Setup
NOTE: The MC33XX has to be connected to the internet in-order to set up a Google ™ account.
Google account only required on devices with GMS software.
33
Getting Started
The first time the MC33XX starts, the Setup Wizard displays. Follow the on-screen instructions to set up a Google
account, configure Google Wallet for purchasing items from the Play Store, entering your personal information, and
enabling backup/restore features.
Replacing the Battery in the MC33XX-G
