Whatever the thickness of the battery is, installing the battery remains the same. The following
series of pictures depicts battery installation in its compartment on the device.
STEP 1:
Open battery cover
STEP 2:
Put battery into its
compartment
STEP 3:
Close battery cover
2.3 About the lithium-polymer battery
Note
that the lithium-polymer rechargeable battery included in the box is not fully charged. Before
first-time use of the device the battery must be fully charged.
Note
that it is strongly recommended to charge the lithium-polymer battery indoors at 20°C
temperature, or at temperature near that (
r
2°C), because continual charging at high or low
temperature may cause degradation of battery performance even within specified temperature
range, which is 0 to 45 degrees Celsius.
Note
that every charge/discharge cycle has an effect on the rechargeable battery’s ampere-hour
capacity, so that the fully charged battery, which is charged many times before, runs down more
rapidly in use than the battery just brought into use. After 500 charge/discharge cycles, if the
battery has been run with care enough, the battery’s ampere-hour capacity is still more than two-
thirds of its original one. However, the charge/discharge cycle is a conception being not
unambiguous. Accordingly, between short operating periods it is not reasonable to recharge the
battery.
Note
that ambient temperature has an effect on how long the fully charged lithium-polymer battery
is able to power your device. A rule of thump is that the colder is using conditions the shorter is
operating time of the device powered by the fully charged battery.
Note
that if the battery runs down, do not leave the device with the flat battery or the battery which
has run down lying idle without recharging the battery, because the battery may be overdischarged
due to self discharge. After overdischarging the battery does not preserve its performance
properties. In the worst-case scenario, the battery is damaged and cannot store energy any longer.
Note
that if you do not use your Nordic ID Morphic for a long time, remove the battery from its
battery chamber. Never store the battery in the device.
Note
that the battery may not be flat nor be fully charged for long-time storage. The ideal charge is
about 60% of the battery’s full capacity.
