Battery SafetyThe Battery Packs used on Zebra Mobile Printers contain a great deal of energy and can cause personal injury or start a fire if used improperly or carelessly. Please observe the following safety practices:
Avoid accidental short circuiting of any battery. Allowing battery terminals to contact conductive material will create a short circuit which could cause burns and other injuries or could start a fire.
Batteries can explode or catch fire if improperly charged or exposed to high temperatures or fire.
Do not disassemble, crush or expose batteries to water.
CAUTION: Use of any charger not approved specifically by Zebra for use with its batteries could cause damage to the battery pack or the printer and will void the warranty.
Installing the Battery NOTE: Batteries are shipped uncharged. Remove protective shrink- wrap and labels from new battery packs prior to use.
When the battery is first installed, the Control Panel indicators may briefly turn on and then go off, indicating the battery is not fully charged (see “Charging the Battery” below and “Operator Controls.”)
