As with other battery types, Lithium-Ion (LI) batteries will
lose capacity over time. Capacity deterioration is notice-
able after one year of service whether the battery is in use
or not. It is difficult to precisely predict the finite life of a LI
battery, but cell manufacturers rate them at 500 charge
cycles. In other words, the batteries should be expected to
CAUTION: Always charge the battery at
32° – 104°F (0° - 40°C) temperature range.
Use only the authorized power supplies, battery
pack, chargers, and docks supplied by your Data-
logic reseller. The use of any other power sup-
plies can damage the device and void your
warranty.
Do not disassemble or modify the battery. The
battery contains safety and protection devices,
which, if damaged, may cause the battery to gen-
erate heat, explode or ignite.
CAUTION: DO NOT place the battery in or near
fire, on stoves or other high temperature loca-
tions.
DO NOT place the battery in direct sunlight, or use
or store the battery inside cars in hot weather.
Doing so may cause the battery to generate heat,
explode or ignite. Using the battery in this man-
ner may also result in a loss of performance and a
shortened life expectancy.
CAUTION: DO NOT place the battery in microwave
ovens, high-pressure containers or on induction
cookware.
Immediately discontinue use of the battery if,
while using, charging or storing the battery, the
battery emits an unusual smell, feels hot,
changes color or shape, or appears abnormal in
any other way.
DO NOT replace the battery pack when the device
is turned on.
DO NOT remove or damage the battery pack’s
label.
DO NOT use the battery pack if it is damaged in
any part.
Battery pack usage by children should be super-
vised.
