Long-term Storage
To power off the FC-6000 for long-term storage, follow these steps:
1. Power off the FC-6000 as described in the previous section,
Short‑term Storage
.
2. Press and hold the power button for 20 seconds. This
disconnects the batteries from the system.
3. Take out the removable battery and store it in a cool, dry
location.
4. When you are ready to power on the FC-6000, replace the
battery pack. Plug in the AC wall charger and connect it to the
FC-6000 BEFORE you power it on.

FC‑6000 is Locked Up
If the FC-6000 is completely stuck and won’t respond or you cannot
get to the Start menu, hold the power key down for five seconds
to see if that solves it. If that doesn’t work, hold it down for 10
seconds. This causes a hardware shut off. Press the power button
again to power it on.
If 10 seconds doesn’t work, hold the power button down for 20
seconds. Batteries are forced to electrically disconnect from the
FC-6000, causing a complete shut down. The FC-6000 cannot
be powered on again until it is plugged in with the AC wall charger.
Keep this in mind if you are in the field.
CAUTION:
Holding the power button down for 20 seconds for a
forced disconnect is recommended only as a last resort. Forcing
the power off causes all unsaved data to be lost and corrupts active
data transfers to storage.
