period (about 600 charge/discharge cycles for the 2700 mAh NiMH battery) or if the battery is unable to hold an adequate

charge.

• If you are not sure the battery or charger is working properly, please send it to Hand Held Products or an authorized HHP

service center, for inspection.

The Dolphin hand held computer meets or exceeds all applicable standards and has been manufactured to the highest level of
