Installing the Battery Pack
4 PowerScan™ PM9501-AR
As with other types of batteries, Lithium-Ion (LI) batteries
will lose capacity over time. Capacity deterioration is notice-
able after one year of service whether the battery is in use
or not. It is difficult to precisely predict the finite life of a LI
battery, but cell manufacturers rate them at 500 charge
cycles. In other words, the batteries should be expected to
take 500 full discharge / charge cycles before needing
replacement. This number is higher if partial discharging /
recharging is adhered to rather than full / deep discharging.
The typical manufacturer advertised useful life of LI batter-
ies is one to three years, depending on usage and number
of charges, etc., after which they should be removed from
service, especially in mission critical applications. Do not
continue to use a battery that is showing excessive loss of
capacity, it should be properly recycled / disposed of and
replaced. For most applications, batteries should be
replaced after one year of service to maintain customer
satisfaction and minimize safety concerns.
Collect and recycle waste batteries separately from the
device in comply with European Directive 2006/66/EC,
2011/65/EU, 2002/96/EC, 2012/19/EU, and subsequent
modifications, US and China regulatory and others laws and
regulations about the environment.
CAUTION
Always charge the battery at 32° – 104°F (0° -
40°C) temperature range.
Use only the authorized power supplies, battery
pack, chargers, and docks supplied by your Data-
logic reseller. The use of any other power supplies
can damage the device and void your warranty.
Do not disassemble or modify the battery. The bat-
tery contains safety and protection devices, which,
if damaged, may cause the battery to generate heat,
explode or ignite.
Do not place the battery in or near fire, on stoves or
other high temperature locations.
Do not place the battery in direct sunlight, or use or
store the battery inside cars in hot weather. Doing
so may cause the battery to generate heat, explode
or ignite. Using the battery in this manner may also
result in a loss of performance and a shortened life
expectancy.
Do not place the battery in microwave ovens, high-
pressure containers or on induction cookware.
Immediately discontinue use of the battery if, while
using, charging or storing the battery, the battery
emits an unusual smell, feels hot, changes color or
shape, or appears abnormal in any other way.
CAUTION
Do not replace the battery pack when the device is
turned on.
Do not remove or damage the battery pack’s label.
Do not use the battery pack if it is damaged in any
part. Battery pack usage by children should be
supervised.
