What's New?

The CK31 is now available with a near-far range area imager.

Using the Battery

The CK31 uses a model AB1G (P/N 318-020-xxx) lithium-ion
battery as its main power source. You must fully charge the main
battery before you can use the CK31. When you change the
battery, a backup battery maintains your status, memory, and
real-time clock for at least 10 minutes.
If the battery light blinks or turns on solid, you cannot restore
factory defaults or perform a warm or cold boot on your CK31
by using the I key. You must replace the battery with a fully
charged battery before you can restore factory defaults or boot
your CK31.
To ensure maximum battery life and product performance,
periodically replace the rechargeable lithium-ion battery.
Contact your local Intermec sales representative for replacement
batteries.
Note: The AB1G battery is designed to provide more than
a full shift of daily use. However, battery life depends on
individual usage patterns. Conditions such as wireless
coverage, power settings, roaming frequency, applications in
use, number of radios in use, ambient temperature, lithium-
ion battery maintenance, and individual use cases have an
effect on overall battery performance.
The lithium-ion battery pack that is used in this device may
present a fire or chemical burn hazard if it is mistreated. Do
not disassemble it, heat it above 100°C (212°F) or incinerate
it. Dispose of used battery packs promptly. Keep away from
children.
Removing the main battery when the backup battery low or
critically low icon appears on the taskbar may cause your
CK31 to cold boot and you may lose data.
