Temperature extremes will affect the ability of your battery to charge: allow it
to cool down or warm up first.
Battery operation time is affected by the following: whether both the phone
and the communicator interface are on, radio signal strength, various phone
settings, the use of the backlight, and the length of the screen blanker period.
It is recommended always to keep a charged battery in the communicator.
Keeping the battery charged maximises the lifetime of the backup battery
supplying power to the real-time clock of the communicator. In case the
backup battery is drained, it will be automatically charged the next time a
charged battery is reconnected to the communicator.
Always close the device cover before removing the battery. Closing the cover
will save all data.
Note
Use the battery only for its intended purpose.
Never use any charger or battery that is damaged or worn out.
Do not short-circuit the battery. Accidental short-circuiting can occur when a
metallic object (coin, clip or pen) causes direct connection of the + and -
terminals of the battery (metal strips on the back of the battery), for example,
when you carry a spare battery in your pocket or purse. Short-circuiting the
terminals may damage the battery or the connecting object.
Leaving the battery in hot or cold places, such as in a closed car in summer or
winter conditions, will reduce the capacity and lifetime of the battery. Always
try to keep the battery between +15°C (+59°F) and +25°C (+77°F). A
communicator with a hot or cold battery may temporarily not work, even
when the battery is fully charged. The performance of Lithium-ion batteries is
particularly limited in temperatures below 0°C (+32°F).
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire!
Batteries must be recycled or disposed of properly. Batteries must not
be disposed of in municipal waste.
Communicator
To switch on the communicator interface
The communicator interface is switched on simply by opening the cover. The
application that was active the last time the communicator was used is
shown on the display.
When you close the cover, the communicator interface switches off its display
and saves all data.
