The NiMH Battery Pack
Caution!
· The battery pack is not charged when shipped. It
must be charged before use.
· It takes 10 hours maximum to fully charge the
battery pack with the EDC-105.
· Charging should be conducted in a temperature
range of 0 to 40°C. (32 to 104°F)
· Do not modify, dismantle, incinerate or immerse the battery pack in water
as this can be dangerous.
· Never short-circuit the battery pack terminals, as this can cause damage
to the equipment or lead to heating of the battery which may cause burns.
· Unnecessary prolonged charging (overcharging) can deteriorate battery
performance.
· The battery pack should be stored in a dry place where the temperature
range is from -20 to +45°C. (-4 to +113°F)
Temperatures outside this range can cause the battery liquid to leak.
Exposure to prolonged high humidity can cause corrosion of metal
components.
· Normally, the battery pack can be charged up to 500 times. However, the
battery pack can be considered dead if the period of use drops off
markedly despite the pack being charged for the aforementioned charging
time. When this happens, a new pack should be used.
· To protect the environment, do not dispose of the battery pack. At the end
of its useful life, check with your local solid waste officials for details on
recycling options or proper disposal in your area. You may also contact
our office.
