D. Powering the printer with a Battery
Your BMP 91 package does not include a battery since
®
battery power is optional.
• Use only Brady Lithium-Ion 12V battery packs.
CAUTION: Risk of Explosion if the battery is replaced
by an incorrect type. Dispose of used batteries
according to the instructions.
• Store the battery pack in a cool, dry place.
• Charge the battery pack for 4 hours before using it for the first
time.
You may charge/recharge the battery pack inside the printer
using the AC power adapter in your package OR outside the
printer using the charger adaptor specifically designed for this
purpose.
WARNINGS
• When loading the battery into a battery pack charger or the
printer's battery compartment, ensure that the plus (+) and
minus (-) terminal marks on the battery pack and on the battery
charger/compartment are correctly oriented.
Reversing the terminals will result in reverse-charging and
abnormal chemical reaction may occur, possibly leading to
acid leakage, overheating, smoke emission, bursting and/or
ignition of the battery pack.
• When recharging the battery, observe the recharging
conditions specified by the battery manufacturer.
A recharging operation under non-conforming conditions
(beyond the limits of temperature and larger voltage/current
than specified) can cause the battery pack to be overcharged,
or charged with extremely high current, abnormal chemical
reaction can occur in it, possibly leading to overheating,
smoke emission, bursting and/or ignition.
• Do not disassemble, open, or modify the battery. If it is
damaged, replace the battery.
Incorrect reassembly may result in the risk of electric shock, fire
or exposure to battery chemicals.
• Do not use a battery pack that has been damaged in any way
(e.g., pierced with a nail, hit with a hammer, run over, stepped
on, received a sharp blow, dropped).
• Do not drop the battery. Do not crush the battery by putting
objects on top of it.
Doing any of these may damage the battery.
• Do not transport or store the battery pack together with metal
objects such as necklaces, hair pins, etc.
A battery will short circuit if a metal object makes a connection
between the positive and negative contacts on the battery. A
short circuited battery may cause fire and personal injury.
