When charging the rechargeable Li-ion battery while the DC cable is connected, the amount of voltage required to fully charge the rechargeable Li-ion battery may not be supplied by the DC power outlet. When 180 minutes (max.) have passed since charging started, the battery indicator turns off and charging stops even if the rechargeable Li-ion battery has not been fully charged.

Rechargeable Li-ion Battery

Characteristics

Understanding the properties of the rechargeable Li-ion battery will allow you to optimize its usage.

Using or storing the rechargeable Li-ion battery in a location exposed to high or low temperatures may accelerate its deterioration. In particular, using a rechargeable Li-ion battery with a high charge (charged 90% or more) in a location exposed to high temperatures will considerably accelerate battery deterioration.

Using the printer while the rechargeable Li-ion battery is installed and charging may accelerate the battery’s deterioration. If using the printer when the rechargeable Li-ion battery is installed, disconnect the AC adapter or DC cable.

Try to fully discharge the rechargeable Li-ion battery before charging it.

If the printer will not be used for a long period of time, remove the rechargeable Li-ion battery from the printer when its charge is 50% or less, and then store the battery in a cool place away from direct sunlight.

If the rechargeable Li-ion battery will not be used for a long period of time, we recommend charging it every 6 months.

For other precautions, refer to the instruction manual included with the rechargeable Li-ion battery.
