228 Appendix
Battery Safety
Your device uses a removable and rechargeable lithium ion battery.
Please contact customer service for assistance should you need a
replacement battery.
DOs
Only use the battery and charger approved by the manufacturer.
Only use the battery for its original purpose.
Try to keep batteries in a temperature between 41°F (5°C) and
95°F (35°C).
If the battery is stored in temperatures above or below the
recommended range, give it time to warm up or cool down
before using.
Completely drain the battery before recharging. It may take one
to four days to completely drain.
Store the discharged battery in a cool, dark, and dry place.
Purchase a new battery when its operating time gradually
decreases after fully charging.
Properly dispose of the battery according to local regulations.
DON’Ts
Don’t attempt to disassemble the battery – it is a sealed unit with
no serviceable parts.
Don’t expose the battery terminals to any other metal object
(e.g., by carrying it in your pocket or purse with other metallic
objects such as coins, clips and pens). This can short circuit and
critically damage the battery.
Don’t leave the battery in hot or cold temps. Otherwise, it could
significantly reduce the capacity and lifetime of the battery.
Don’t dispose of the battery into a fire.
