Battery Information
The following information relates to the care and handling of the Site Master battery, and to NiMH batteries in
general.
•
The Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) battery that is supplied with the
Site Master
is shipped in a
discharged state. Before using the
Site Master
, the internal battery must first be charged for three
hours, either in the
Site Master
or in the optional battery charger (Anritsu part number: 2000-1029).
•
Use only Anritsu approved battery packs.
•
Recharge the battery only in the Site Master or in an Anritsu approved charger.
•
With a new NiMH battery, full performance is achieved after three to five complete charge and discharge
cycles.
•
When the Site Master or the charger is not in use, disconnect it from the power source.
•
Do not charge batteries for longer than 24 hours. Overcharging may shorten battery life.
•
If left unused, a fully charged battery will discharge itself over time.
•
Temperature extremes affect the ability of the battery to charge. Allow the battery to cool down or warm
up as necessary before use or charging.
•
Discharge an NiMH battery from time to time to improve battery performance and battery life.
•
The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times, but it will eventually wear out.
•
The battery may need to be replaced when the operating time between charging becomes noticeably
shorter than normal.
•
Never use a damaged or worn-out charger or battery.
•
Storing the battery in extremely hot or cold places reduces the capacity and lifetime of the battery.
•
Never short-circuit the battery terminals.
•
Do not drop, mutilate, or attempt to disassemble the battery.
•
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire!
•
Batteries must be recycled or disposed of properly. Do not place batteries in household garbage.
•
Always use the battery for its intended purpose only.
