Description
The Zone20 H can be purchased with alkaline batteries or a rechargeable Li-Ion battery pack.
The following information is appropriate only to the model you have purchased.
6.1
Operating Principles
First-time Use /
Charging Batteries
•
The battery must be charged prior to using it for the first time because it is delivered with an energy
content as low as possible.
•
The permissible temperature range for charging is between 0°C to +40°C/ +32°F to +104°F. For
optimal charging, we recommend charging the batteries at a low ambient temperature of +10°C to
+20°C/+50°F to +68°F if possible.
•
It is normal for the battery to become warm during charging. Using the chargers recommended by
GeoMax, it is not possible to charge the battery if the temperature is too high.
•
For new batteries or batteries that have been stored for a long time (> three months), it is effectual
to make only one charge/discharge cycle.
•
For Li-Ion batteries, a single discharging and charging cycle is sufficient. We recommend carrying out
the process when the battery capacity indicated on the charger or on a GeoMax product deviates signif-
icantly from the actual battery capacity available.
Operation / Discharging
•
The batteries can be operated from -20°C to +55°C/-4°F to +131°F.
•
Low operating temperatures reduce the capacity that can be drawn; high operating temperatures
reduce the service life of the battery.

charge should allow the Zone20 H to run for a full 8 hours.
