Charging
The lithium-ion battery can provide between 300-500 charge/discharge cycles. The
lithium-ion battery is different from most other rechargeable batteries as charging
from a partially charged battery keeps the battery in great condition. Other batteries
prefer to be fully discharged each time before recharging. Fully discharging the
lithium-ion battery should be avoided wherever possible.
For most users, charging the battery at the end of each day would be the ideal
choice. The lithium-ion battery pack typically lasts about 2-3 years, but potentially
longer if cared for correctly.
When charging the battery, use a dedicated charger and follow the specified
conditions.
•
Do not use or charge the battery close to fire or inside a car in which the
temperature may exceed 60° C.
•
Stop charging the battery if charging is not completed within the specified time.
•
Thoroughly read this manual before charging the battery.
•
The battery can be charged within a 0° C to 45° C temperature range.
•
Use the battery only in the specified equipment.
•
Do not charge the battery in a place where static electricity is generated, or let
the battery touch something that is statically charged.
Charge the battery as follows:
1.
Connect the charger cable to the communications cable (Figure 4).
2.
Connect the communications cable to the unit (Figure 4).
3.
