Storage Precautions
• If you will not be using the battery pack for an extended period of time, remove it from the
AQ1300 or AQ1301 and store it in a dry place.
• Avoid storing the battery pack for an extended period of time when it is fully charged (after
it has just been charged) or when it has no power left (when the AQ1300 or AQ1301 will not
turn on). Storing the battery pack under these conditions will degrade its performance and
reduce its longevity. It is best to store the battery pack when it is 40 to 50% charged. This is
equivalent to the state the battery is in after you turn off the AQ1300 or AQ1301 and charge
an empty battery for an hour at room temperature.
Disposal
• When disposing of the batteries, follow the proper disposal regulations as specified by the
relevant ordinance in your area.
• When disposing of the batteries in the EU, follow the Waste Electrical and Electronic
Equipment (WEEE) Directive.
Contact your nearest YOKOGAWA dealer under the following circumstances.
• When the battery pack is broken or behaves strangely.
• When the battery run time becomes short and the battery pack needs to be replaced (the battery
pack is a consumable item).
Removing the Battery Pack
Before you remove the battery, turn off the power and unplug the AC adapter from the AQ1300 or
AQ1301.
1.
Release the battery cover lock.
Insert a coin or screwdriver with a thickness that will not damage the lock slot into the lock slot, and release
