Installing the Battery Pack
The Pegaso’s Battery and its cover are integrated — they do not come apart.
Complete the following instructions to install the battery pack:
1. Loosen the elastic handstrap by releasing it from the bottom of the unit
(refer to the PRG).
2. Orient the battery pack with the latch facing toward the top of the Pegaso
(refer to
Figure 2 on page 8 ).
3. Replace the battery door by inserting the bottom tab into the unit, then
clicking the latch into place. If the battery pack is installed incorrectly, it
will not seat properly.
WARNING
Lithium-ion battery packs may get hot, explode, ignite, or/and cause
serious injury if exposed to abusive conditions.
• Do not place the battery in or near fire, direct sunlight, or other
high temperature locations, or heat the battery.
• Do not connect the positive terminal and negative terminal of the
battery to each other or short circuit battery terminals with any
metal object (such as wire, coin or metallic object).
• Do not expose the battery to liquids, or allow to get wet.
• Do not disassemble, modify, open, crush, bend, deform, puncture,
shred, remanufacture or pierce the battery. The battery contains
safety and protection devices, which, if damaged, may cause the
battery to generate heat, explode or ignite.
• Use only battery packs that have been authorized by Datalogic per
IEEE Standard 1725-200x for GSM/GPRS/EDGE operation.
• Promptly dispose of used batteries in accordance with local regu-
lations.
• Battery usage by children should be supervised.
• Avoid dropping the PDA or battery. If the PDA or battery is
dropped, especially on a hard surface, and the user suspects dam-
age, return it to a service center for inspection.
• Only use the battery for the system for which it is specified.
In the event the battery leaks and the fluid gets into your eye, do not
rub the eye. Rinse well with water and immediately seek medical care.
If left untreated, the battery fluid could cause damage to the eye.
Datalogic recommends annual replacement of rechargeable battery
packs to ensure maximum performance.
When you first remove the Pegaso from the box, you must charge
both the battery pack and the backup battery for a minimum of 4
hours.
