40
Even when the OmniScan MX2 is turned off and unplugged, it draws a small amount
of power from the battery, which could completely discharge the batteries in about
15 days.
2.
Because lithium-ion batteries self-discharge over time, remember to check the
remaining charge of any stored batteries approximately once a month to ensure
that they have 40 % to 80 % remaining capacity, and recharge any that do not.
Failure to do so may render a battery permanently unusable if it falls below a
critical level (less than 1 %).
3.
After an extended period of storage, the batteries should be recharged before use.
New battery procedure
1.
Anytime you acquire a new rechargeable battery, use it four to eight times
consecutively in the OmniScan MX2, and ensure that you completely discharge
and recharge it after each use. Doing so will enable it to reach maximum capacity,
providing maximum run time.
2.
It is good practice to completely discharge and recharge the battery after the first
10 to 15 periods of normal use (or after two to three weeks) in order to drain the
battery, thus maintaining good run time and maximizing battery life.
3.
Frequently switching from external DC power to battery power and vice versa
may result in shorter battery life, because the charge/discharge cycles are limited
(approximately 300 cycles). Please note that even a partial discharge and recharge
of the battery accounts for one cycle.
4.
To maximize battery life, before charging, always run the OmniScan MX2 on
battery power until it shuts down, or until you get a low-battery warning.
Recharge the battery with the OmniScan MX2 in turned-off mode for a shorter
recharge time, or with the external charger if provided.
2.4.7
Used Battery Disposal
Although lithium-ion batteries do not contain any environmentally hazardous
components such as lead or cadmium, the batteries should be disposed of in
accordance with local regulations. Batteries should be disposed of in a discharged
state to avoid heat generation, and if applicable, in accordance with the European
Directive on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE). Refer to your local
Olympus distributor for return and/or collection systems available in your country.
