Notes and Cautions
• After charging the battery pack, it is good practice to run the pump for approximately 5 minutes before calibrating. This ensures
the battery is in a more steady-state condition and improves the agreement in pre and post-sampling calibrations.
• The pump will not sleep during charging. Connecting a sleeping pump to the charger will wake it up from sleep.
• The AC charger/adapter can be used to extend battery run time, but it is not a battery eliminator. Therefore, it will not provide
indefi nite run times.
• Do not operate or charge the pump in hazardous locations.
• Use only the SKC-approved charger for this pump. Use of an unapproved charger may damage the battery and the pump
and voids any warranty.
• The battery pack may be kept on the SKC-approved charger for an indefi nite time.
• Ensure proper orientation of the charging cable before plugging it into the charging jack. Improper orientation/contact will
short circuit the battery and voids any warranty.
• Short-circuiting the battery pack will render it immediately inoperative.
• Failure to follow warnings and cautions voids any warranty.
