Charging the Terminal Battery

Before using your terminal for the first time, charge the lithium-ion battery in the terminal for
approximately four hours, using the Serial Charging Cable or any other appropriate
accessory.
Note: To ensure the quickest charge time, turn the terminal off while
charging.
Do not place your terminal into a charging device without a
main battery installed. See
Your terminal is equipped with a memory backup battery which automatically charges from
the fully-charged lithium-ion battery. This backup battery retains data in memory when the
terminal's battery is removed, and can take up to 20 hours to charge when you first use your
terminal.
Note: If you remove your lithium-ion battery before the backup battery is
fully charged, data may be lost. For this reason, DO NOT remove the
battery before the backup battery is fully charged, which can take up
to 20 hours.
