12.1. Battery charging and discharging

The device is powered by rechargeable lithium-polymer battery with a capacity of
1700mAh.
Battery charging is automatic and there is no risk of overcharge. Charging time
depends on battery load.
Note:
New battery is not fully charged and requires charging.
Remember!
Battery may be charged and discharged hundreds of times but eventually it
would need replacement. If work time becomes noticeably shorter than usual,
battery should be replaced with new one.
Use only batteries and charger approved by The Manufacturer. Using a
different type of battery than recommended by the Manufacturer is a threat to
health and safety.
Follow the same advice as for battery chargers. If charger is not in use, plug
it off. For safety reasons, do not charge longer than for 7-day time. If full battery is
not in use, it will discharge with time.
Extreme temperatures has got adverse impact on charging. Leaving batteries
in hot or cold places (i.e. in vehicle in summer or winter time) would shorten
lifespan and lower its capacity. Try to keep battery between 15°C – 25°C. The
device with excessively hot or cold battery may not work for some time, even if
battery is fully charged. In the sub-zero temperatures battery efficiency is
especially low. Never dispose of battery into fire!
Used batteries should be recycled or disposed of according to local regulations.
Do not throw batteries to public or home dust bins.
