higher temperatures (e.g. approximately +37°C (+98°F)) the device or cradle may,
for small periods of time, alternately enable and disable battery charging to keep
the battery at acceptable temperatures. The device and cradle indicate when
charging is disabled due to abnormal temperatures via its LED.
