Replacing the Battery Pack
1.
Using a coin or screwdriver, unscrew the bottom of the
battery pack until it is disengaged.
The battery pack will rise slightly in the rear, pushed by
the contact springs.
CAUTION
Only in case of long storage, to avoid deep dis-
charge of the battery it is recommended to par-
tially recharge the battery every three months to
keep the charge status at a medium level.
As a reference, run a fast recharge for 20 minutes
every three months on unused products to avoid
any performance deterioration of the cell.
Before proceeding, read “Battery Safety” on
the preceding pages. Datalogic recommends
annual replacement of rechargeable battery
packs to ensure maximum performance.
