Battery Cleaning, Storage and Service

Cleaning
The battery pack should not require cleaning unless it has become heavily soiled. Old or damaged batteries should be disposed
of promptly and properly. The best way to dispose of used batteries is to recycle them. Battery recycling facilities recover the
Nickel, Lithium or Lead from old batteries to manufacture new batteries.
Use only mild detergent with a slightly damp cloth to clean the outside of the battery. Do not use solvents or flammable cleaners.
Allow the case to dry fully before using again.
Do not allow cleaning agents of any kind to contact the charging contacts; they may be damaged. If necessary, clean them with
a soft-bristle, dry brush or compressed air.
Storage
Battery packs should be stored, charging contact side up, in a cool dry place, protected from weather and airborne debris,
whenever possible.
Do not store battery packs in direct sunlight, on a metal surface, or anywhere the battery pack cannot cool down.
Do not leave the battery pack in a non-operating charger. The battery pack may discharge through the charger rather than hold
its charge.
Battery packs may leak up to 1 mA current through the battery contacts when left in a non-powered charger pocket.
Service
There are no user serviceable parts in the Lithium Ion Battery Pack. Contact
disposal and replacement options.

Using a Desktop Cradle

Introduction

Note: When an external power supply is used to power this cradle, the external power supply should be UL Listed, with LPS
or Class 2 outputs rated 12V, minimum 2 amps.
The desktop cradle is available in three configurations:
1. Without a power supply. A power supply must be ordered separately.
2. With a power supply and a US power cord.
3. With a power supply but without a power cord. A country specific power cord must be provided.
Communications cables for the MX9 are available separately.

Quick Start - Desktop Cradle

The following list outlines, in a general way, the process to follow when preparing the MX9 desktop cradle for use. Refer to
the following sections in this document for more details.
1. Connect the cradle end of the power adapter cable to the Power port on the back of the cradle.
2. Attach the AC power connector to a dependable power source.
3. Attach any desired external cabled devices to the ports on the cradle.
4. The desktop cradle is ready for use.

Battery Charging in a Desktop Cradle

Main battery recharging in a docked MX9 is managed by the Power Management settings in the MX9. Refer to the Power
control panel on the MX9.
The spare battery in the spare battery well re-charges with or without an MX9 in the dock. The spare battery is fully charged
in approximately four hours.
The cradle must be receiving power from an external power source before the main battery in the docked MX9 or spare bat-
tery pack charging can take place.
