Do not discharge the battery using any device except
for the scanner. When the battery is used in devices
other than the designated product, it may damage the
battery or reduce its life expectancy. If the device
causes an abnormal current to flow, it may cause the
battery to become hot, explode or ignite and cause
serious injury.
Lithium-ion battery packs may get hot, explode or
ignite and cause serious injury if exposed to abusive
conditions. Be sure to follow the safety warnings
listed on the following page.
• Do not place the battery pack in fire or heat.
• Do not connect the positive terminal and nega-
tive terminal of the battery pack to each other
with any metal object (such as wire).
• Do not carry or store the battery pack together
with metal objects.
• Do not pierce the battery pack with nails, strike it
with a hammer, step on it or otherwise subject it
to strong impacts or shocks.
• Do not solder directly onto the battery pack.
• Do not expose the battery pack to liquids, or
allow the battery to get wet.
• Do not apply voltages to the battery pack con-
tacts.
In the event the battery pack leaks and the fluid gets
into your eye, do not rub the eye. Rinse well with water
and immediately seek medical care. If left untreated,
the battery fluid could cause damage to the eye.
Always charge the battery at 32° – 104°F (0° - 40°C) tem-
perature range.
Use only the authorized power supplies, battery pack,
chargers, and docks supplied by your Datalogic reseller.
The use of any other power supplies can damage the
device and void your warranty.
Do not disassemble or modify the battery. The battery
contains safety and protection devices, which, if dam-
aged, may cause the battery to generate heat, explode
or ignite.
