To prevent damage, do not expose Product to heat sources or high-temperature
environments such as an unattended vehicle in the sun.
To get the best performance from the lithium-ion battery:
•
Do not store the Imager on the charger for more than 24 hours as reduced battery life may result.
•
Charge the Imager for a two-hour minimum at six-month intervals for maximum battery life. Without
use, the battery will self-discharge in approximately six months. Batteries stored for long periods will
need two to ten charging cycles for full capacity.
Charge Batteries
Before you use the Imager for the first time, charge the battery for a minimum of two and one-half
hours. The battery status shows on the five-segment charge indicator.
New batteries are not fully charged. Two to ten charge/discharge cycles are necessary before the
battery charges to its maximum capacity.
To charge the battery, use one of the options that follow.
Two-Bay Battery Charger Base
1. Connect the ac power supply to the ac wall outlet and connect the dc output to the charger base.
2. Put one or two smart batteries into bays of charger base.
3. Charge batteries until charge LEDs on charger base are a solid green.
4. Remove smart batteries and disconnect the power supply when batteries are fully charged.
AC Power Socket on Imager
1. Connect the ac power adapter into an ac wall outlet and connect the dc output to the Imager's ac
power socket. flashes on the display while the battery charges with the ac power adapter.
2. Charge until the charge indicator on the display does not flash.
3. Disconnect the ac power adapter when the smart battery is fully charged.
Make sure that the Imager is near room temperature before you connect it to the charger. See the
charging temperature specification. Do not charge in hot or cold areas. When you charge in
extreme temperatures, battery capacity may be decreased.
shows in the lower left-hand corner of the display when the Imager is connected to ac power and
the battery is removed. When the power is off on the Imager and the ac power adapter is connected to
the Imager, flashes in the center of the display to show that the battery charge is in process.
