Battery Warnings and Cautions

Always charge the battery at 32°–113°F (0°–45°C) temperature range.

If you remove the battery pack or it becomes completely discharged, there is a 30 minute window in which to insert a charged battery pack before the backup bat- CAUTION tery fails. If your backup battery completely discharges, the contents of the RAM memory will be lost. If your back-up battery is less than fully charged, there is pro-

portionally smaller window of time available.

Use only the authorized power supplies, battery pack, chargers, and docks supplied by your Datalogic Mobile reseller. The use of any other power supplies can damage the Falcon and void your warranty. Refer to Appendix A for the correct

Power Supplies and Accessories.

Do not disassemble or modify the battery. The battery contains safety and protection devices, which, if damaged, may cause the battery to generate heat, explode or ignite.

Do not place the battery in or near fire, on stoves or other high temperature loca- tions. Do not place the battery in direct sunlight, or use or store the battery inside unventilated areas such as cars in hot weather. Doing so may cause the battery to generate heat, explode or ignite. Using the battery in this manner may also result in a loss of performance and a shortened life expectancy.

Do not place the battery in microwave ovens, high-pressure containers or on induction cookware.

Immediately discontinue use of the battery if, while using, charging or storing the battery, the battery emits an unusual smell, feels hot, changes color or shape, or appears abnormal in any other way.
