Maintenance information
The PHD is a precision electronic device and must be treated with care. To ensure
the longevity of your PHD, make sure you follow these guidelines.
Important: Make sure your PHD is turned off before connecting or removing any
accessories, replacing the batteries, or replacing the memory chip.
Storing your PHD
When storing your PHD for more than 16 days, follow these guidelines:
S Always store your PHD with the NiCd batteries inserted. Charge the
batteries, insert them into the unit, and then store in a cool place.
S During this storage time, turn the device on periodically (at least once a
month) and check for a LOW BATTERY message. If you see this message,
charge the batteries immediately.
S Protect the device from extreme heat, cold, and moisture.
Cleaning your PHD
Moisten a soft, clean, lintĆfree cloth with a mild, nonabrasive cleaner and wipe
the outside surfaces. Take the following precautions when cleaning your PHD:
S Do not saturate the cloth used to wipe the device.
S Do not spray or pour liquids directly onto the device.
S Never use a paper towel to clean the device.
Charging and recharging batteries
We recommend you use only NiCd rechargeable batteries in the PHD+/PHD+ II.
The PHD+ requires four AAA NiCd batteries. The PHD+ II requires three AA
NiCd batteries. The batteries for both devices are designed to provide power for
approximately five hours of continuous use when charged properly. The PHD
Laser+ comes with a 9 volt alkaline battery, but a rechargeable battery pack and
recharger may be purchased from FSC. See the following section for installation
instructions.
Warning: Only recharge NiCd batteries. Charging regular or reusable alkaline
batteries with the Telxon charger causes them to explode.
If the device is stored in below freezing temperatures for more than
one hour, do not charge the NiCd batteries until they return to room
temperature.
