1.3 Product Notes and Precautions
The LI-180 Spectrometer is a high-precision instrument.
Please unpack with care. Any vibration or collision may cause
instrument damage. If the product doesn’t work normally or
needs repair, don’t attempt any repairs. All repairs must be
performed by authorized technicians.
Most LCD screens have a very small and inconsequential
defective
pixel rate (usually less than 0.1%). This results in
occasional pinpoints of white or other colors but will not
affect the accuracy of measurements.

Precautions / Warnings
Please read the following precautions to avoid fire, excessive
heat, chemical leakage, and explosion:
Do not disassemble or modify the battery.
Do not expose the battery to heat (fire) or water/moisture.
When disposing of used/old batteries, wrap with insulation
tape to shield the
battery from electrical contact with
metallic objects, which might ignite a fire or explosion.
I
f the unit is plugged into the power adapter and the battery
seems to be overheating, or if there is smoke or peculiar
odors emanating from the unit, unplug immediately to avoid
the possibility of fire.
Do not touch the cables if there is heat emanating from or
near the cables as melted or deformed cables could expose
wiring and result in burns or electric shock.
Do not use cloth or anything to wrap or cover the equipment
while charging – this could cause the unit to overheat,
melting the casing or causing fire.
If the unit is accidently immersed in water, or if moisture has
seeped inside, or
metal objects have dropped into the
casing, immediately remove the battery to avoid fire or
electric shock.
Do not operate or store the battery in high-temperature
environments. This will
cause battery leakage and/or
shorten the life of the battery.
Do not use paint thinner, benzene, or other organic solvents
to clean the
equipment. This may damage the exterior finish
or touch screen and may even ignite a fire.

Charge the battery for 6 hours before using it for the first time.
To prevent power outage during use, check whether the red light
has turned off (fully charged) according to the instructions given
on the next page (Item1). Once the spectrometer is turned on,
keep an eye on the battery charge indicator at the upper right
corner of screen.
If your battery drains quickly after being fully charged, it needs to
be replaced.
Please contact LI-COR to order a replacement battery.
Battery life varies with battery age and usage. A new battery
typically lasts about 5 hours after a full charge.
