or longer and connect it to the Battery Backup Power.
♦ The optimal battery storage temperature is 50°F – 73°F (10°C – 23°C),
with a maximum of 104°F (40°C). The battery may lose its charge
capacity permanently if stored at temperatures less than 32°F (0°C) or
greater than 104°F (40°C). For longest life, the battery should be
stored in a cool, dry place.

printer. See Appendix A, "Specifications and Accessories," for more
information.
♦ The recommended charging temperature is 68°F – 77°F (20°C – 25°C)
♦ Recycle Information – Do not throw in trash. Recycle to your local
regulations. The Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation
(RBRC
) is a non-profit organization created to promote recycling of
rechargeable batteries. For more information about how to recycle
batteries in your area, visit www.rbrc.org. Batteries can also be
returned postage-paid to: ERC; 200 Monarch Lane Door #39;

incinerate the battery. It may explode.
♦ Do not let the battery come into contact with metal objects.

♦ It is normal for battery capacity to decrease up to 20% over the first

battery has been exhausted from a printing session. Frequent
charging actually prolongs battery life and has no negative effects
such as memory issues.
