Battery Pack Information
The following information relates to the care and handling of the Anritsu battery pack and Lithium-Ion
batteries in general.
• The battery pack that is supplied with your instrument may need charging before use. Before using the
VNA Master, the internal battery may be charged in the VNA Master, using either the AC-DC Adapter
or the 12 Volt DC adapter, or may be charged separately in the optional Dual Battery Charger.
• Use only Anritsu approved battery packs. Some non-approved battery packs will fit into the
VNA Master, but are electrically incompatible and will not charge correctly.
• Recharge the battery only in the VNA Master or in an Anritsu approved charger.
• When the VNA Master or the charger is not in use, disconnect it from the power source.
• Do not charge batteries for longer than 24 hours. Overcharging may shorten battery life.
• If left unused, a fully charged battery will discharge itself over time.
• Temperature extremes affect the ability of the battery to charge. Allow the battery to cool down or warm
up as necessary before use or charging.
• Discharge the battery from time to time in order to improve battery performance and battery life.
• The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times, but it will eventually wear out.
• The battery may need to be replaced when the operating time between chargings becomes noticeably
shorter than normal.
• Never use a damaged or worn out charger or battery.
• Storing the battery in extremely hot or cold places will reduce the capacity and lifetime of the battery.
• Never short-circuit the battery terminals.
• Do not drop, mutilate, or attempt to disassemble the battery.
• Do not dispose of batteries in a fire!
• Batteries must be recycled or disposed of properly. Do not place batteries in household garbage.
• Always use the battery for its intended purpose only.
