Juniper ULTRA-RUGGED FIELD PC, Reference Manual, Page: 99 / 170

Using the Field PC in
extreme temperatures
The Field PC operates in ranges from -22° F to 122° F
(-30° C to 50° C). To help your device function properly,
store the device indoors when possible.
Other tips:
If the Field PC is exposed to temperatures below
14°F (-10°C ), the device may slow down or the
display backlight may become dim to reduce the
load on the battery power.
Extremely low or high temperatures may prevent the
battery pack from charging. Charge the battery pack
in temperatures between 32°F and 104°F (0° C and
40° C). For best results, charge the battery pack at
room temperature (68°F or 20°C)
