separate packages. This will keep both batteries in good condition for future use.
Note: Any improper handling may reduce the battery life.
1) Hold the mobile computer face down in one hand as shown below.
2) Release the battery lid latches on both sides of the battery compartment.
3) Remove the battery lid by the other hand.
4) Slide the battery pack into the battery compartment at a proper angle (30°~45°) so
that the contacts of the battery are pressed onto the protruding contacts inside the
compartment. Make sure that the battery is snugly fit into the compartment.
5) Replace the battery lid and lock it firmly.
Note: For a new battery, make sure it is fully charged before use. Always prepare a
spare battery pack, especially when you are on the road.
