AEMC 6471 User Manual page 3

Your instrument is equipped with a NiMH battery. This technology offers several
advantages:
• Long battery charge life for a limited volume and weight.
• Possibility of quickly recharging your battery.
• Significantly reduced memory effect: you can recharge your
battery even if it is not fully discharged.
• Respect for the environment: no pollutant materials such as lead
or cadmium, in compliance with the applicable regulations.
After prolonged storage, the battery may be completely discharged. If so, it must
be completely recharged.
Your instrument may not function during part of this recharging operation.
Full recharging of a completely discharged battery may take several hours.
NOTE: In this case, at least 5 charge/discharge cycles will be necessary
for your battery to recover 95% of its capacity.
To make the best possible use of your battery and extend its effective service life:
• Only use the charger supplied with your instrument. Use of
another charger may be dangerous.
• Only charge your instrument at temperatures between 0° and 40°C.
• Comply with the conditions of use defined in the operating manual.
• Comply with the storage conditions specified in the operating
manual.
NiMH technology allows a limited number of charge/discharge cycles depending
significantly on:
• The conditions of use.
• The charging conditions.
Please refer to § 9.5 for correct replacement of the battery.
Do not dispose of the battery pack with other solid waste. Used batteries
must be entrusted to a qualified recycling company or to a company
specialized in processing hazardous materials.
