About Battery Life and Conservation
CS40 Mobile Computer User's Manual
Batteries that are stored outside the CS40 for long periods of time
slowly discharge. Intermec recommends storing the battery in a
charger to maintain battery performance.

When You Want To:
Use the CS40 and the Low
Battery status icon appears
or the Battery light comes
on.
Stop using the CS40 for
5 minutes or longer.
Store the CS40 for more
than a day.
Store the battery outside the
CS40.
Chapter 1 — Using the CS40
Do This to Save Battery Power:
•
Connect the CS40 to an external power
source.
•
Or, save your data and tap Start
Shutdown. After the CS40 turns off,
remove the battery and insert a fully
charged battery.
Make sure the low battery icon is not on the
screen and the Battery light is not turned on.
Press and hold the Power button for about
2 seconds to suspend the CS40.
If you are storing the CS40 for a few days, such
as over the weekend, install a charged battery
or connect the CS40 to a power source.
If you are storing the CS40 for longer, remove
and charge the battery, and then store both
the battery and CS40 in a cool location. If you
store the battery for several months, recharge
the battery to keep it at peak performance.
Store the batteries in a charger.
