7Precautions when using the battery pack

Danger

Do not use any battery pack other than the specified type.

Using a type other than the specified type may cause an explosion.

Use only the specialized charger.

Do not take it apart or modify it.

Do not short circuit the terminals.

Do not use, charge, or leave the battery pack near fire, out in the hot sun, or in any other hot place.

Do not place it in a fire.

Do not hit or drop the battery pack.

Precaution

After charging, do not repeatedly charge it again. (We recommend that after using it, you remove it from the printer and store it, then charge it the day before you use it again.)

• When you do not plan to use the printer for a long time, remove the battery pack from the printer and store it in fully charged condition.

When carrying a spare battery pack removed from the printer, always carry it in the protective cover included with the battery pack.

If the battery pack works for only a short time after it is charged, or if an error occurs even though it is charged, it may have reached the end of its service life. Buy a new battery pack.

Dispose of an unnecessary battery pack according to rules in the country where you are using it.

If the terminals of the battery pack are dirty, clean them with a soft cloth.

The battery pack performs a chemical reaction, so use it considering this characteristic.

Charge the battery pack where the temperature is in a range from 5°C to 40°C.

Store it in a dry place where the temperature does not rise. Storing it for a long time in a hot place will shorten its service life and cause serious self- discharging.

Because not using it for a long time may cause self-discharging, charge it just before using it.
