Wave User Manual

Version 4
Do not use the battery if it has been severely impacted or dropped, or if the battery has
been exposed to heavy pressure. Some damage may not be visible on the outside of the
case, thus the cells inside the battery may rupture or catch fire.
Do not expose the battery to seawater, rain, snow, drop in water or any other liquids. Do
not charge or use a wet battery. If the battery gets wet, make sure to wipe it dry before
using.
If the equipment is going to be stored for more than 30 continuous days with no
utilisation, we recommend fully recharging the battery, no matter of the battery level.
This procedure will avoid premature mortality of the battery.
The approximate level of remaining battery life is shown on the top right corner display
by the battery icon and the percentage level. When the battery indicator is down to one-
quarter full, charge the battery as soon as possible.
NOTE
: The instrument automatically shuts off when the battery is too weak
for reliable operations. However, current settings are saved and then
restored when the instrument is turned on. For long work journeys on
remote locations or if you are unable to have access to main power supply,
always carry a spare battery
.
When the AC adapter is connected to the instrument, the battery icon indicates a
percentage of full charge of the battery. If the AC adapter is not connected to the
instrument when removing the battery to install a spare, the instrument will automatically
turn off. However, if the adapter is connected, the instrument will remain on.

the durability of the battery.

Travelling
When travelling, Wave should be placed in its transportation case to avoid any major
