Maintaining Your Battery Pack - Meazura MEZ1000 User Manual

Maintaining your Battery Pack

Battery Usage
The Meazura™ MEZ1000 RDA comes with a custom rechargeable Lithium Ion battery pack that can
only be purchased from Aceeca or participating resellers. The battery pack allows about 60 hours of
continual use.
Battery Warnings
· Do not heat or throw the battery into a fire.
· Do not use or store the battery close to fire or inside a car in which the temperature may be over
60°C.
· Do not put the battery in your pocket or in a bag together with metal objects such as necklaces,
hairpins, coins, or screws. Do not store the battery with such objects.
· Do not short circuit the (+) and (-) terminals with a metal object such as a needle, necklace or
hairpin.
· Do not pierce the battery with a sharp object such as a nail.
· Do not hit with a hammer, step on, throw, drop or allow the battery to undergo other such strong
shock.
· Do not disassemble or modify the battery.
· Do not solder the battery directly.
· Do not use a battery that is severely scarred or deformed.
Battery Storage
Unlike NiCad (Nickel Cadium) batteries or NiMH (Nickel-metal Hydride) batteries, lithium-ion batteries
should be charged early and often. When not in a device the battery should be kept at charge level of
around 40%.
Never use battery maintenance software to maintain your battery as this can reduce the life of your
battery.
Li-ion batteries should be kept cool. Ideally stored in a refrigerator. They should not be subjected to
freezing temperatures. Aging will occur much faster at high temperatures (such as a hot car) and will
reduce the life of your battery.
Purchase a Li-Ion battery pack only when you need a replacement, ensuring you receive a fresh
battery pack.
· Do not use the battery with dry cells or other primary batteries, or batteries of a different package,
type, or brand.
· Stop using the battery if it exhibits abnormal heat, odor, color, deformation or is in an abnormal
condition.
· Keep away from fire immediately when leakage or foul odor is detected.
· If liquid leaks onto your skin or clothes, wash well with fresh water immediately.
· If liquid leaking from the battery gets into your eyes, do not rub your eyes. Wash them well with
clean water and consult a doctor immediately.
· Before using the battery, be sure to read the user's manual and cautions on handling thoroughly.
· For information on installing and removing the battery from equipment, thoroughly read the user's
manual for the specific equipment.
· Batteries have life cycles, so if the time that the battery is powering the equipment becomes much
shorter than usual, the battery life is at an end. Replace the battery with a new one.
· Remove a battery whose life cycle has expired from equipment immediately.
· When the battery is discarded, make it non-conducting by applying vinyl tape to the (+) and (-)
terminals. The battery must either be discarded as specified by the relevant local body or put it in
the recycling box of a store that is cooperating in the recycling of rechargeable batteries.
· When not using the battery for an extended period, remove it from the equipment and store it in a
place with a low humidity and low temperature.
