In order to get maximum charging capacity with your Vscan
Extend battery, you should initially allow the battery to be fully
charged and then fully discharged at least three times. Perform
normal operation during these cycles. Once the initial charging/
discharging cycles are performed, the following is applicable
without reducing the lifetime of the battery:
• It is not necessary to completely discharge the battery
before re-charging.
• It is possible to stop charging the battery before it is fully
charged, but the battery will then be discharged more
rapidly.
• It is possible to charge the battery several times each day, if
needed.
When storing the Vscan Extend for a period longer than three
months, remove the battery from the Vscan Extend main unit.
Recharge the battery every three months to maintain battery
performance. When the battery is stored separately, storage can
be at least one year before recharging the battery is needed.
Make sure to remove the battery from the device before
shipping from one place to another.
To minimize battery performance degradation, avoid prolonged
storage of the battery outside the Vscan Extend operational
temperature range (see 'Environmental requirements for the
device' on page 3-3).
