Getting Started
Note: Be careful to position the battery latches completely open while
securing the battery cover on the terminal.
Charge the battery in the terminal for approximately 2 1/2 hours before initial use.
Charging the Battery
Before using your terminal for the first time, charge the battery. Also, when battery voltage
is low, a warning message appears indicating the battery needs to be charged. You can charge
the battery using either the CRD 2700 cradle or the Synchronization Cable.
Your terminal is equipped with a memory backup battery which automatically charges from
the fully-charged lithium-ion battery. This backup battery retains data in memory when the
terminal’s battery is removed, and takes several hours to charge when you first use your
terminal.
Note: If you remove your lithium-ion battery before the backup battery is
fully charged, data may be lost. For this reason, DO NOT remove the
battery within the first ten hours of use.

Using the Cradle to Charge the Battery

To charge the terminal’s battery using the CRD 2700 cradle:
1. Connect the power supply to the power port on the back of the cradle, and the other
end of the power supply to a wall outlet.
