SECTION 5: TROUBLESHOOTING AND MAINTENANCE
5.5 Batteries, Charging and Calibration
Replacing the Batteries
The main battery lithium-ion cells and the lithium coin cell battery are not accessible to the
operator and should only be replaced by qualified service personnel.
When the lithium coin cell battery is discharged, the date/time will not be maintained through
power cycles and the battery will need to be replaced.
The point at which the main battery should be considered for replacement is somewhat variable
and relates to the particular operator needs. As the battery ages, it will hold less charge and will
be able to run fewer tests between charges.
WARNING!
Replacement by inadequately trained personnel and/or substituting incorrect cells could result
in a hazard (such as excessive temperatures, fire or explosion).
Battery Care
The Macroduct Advanced main battery, like all rechargeable batteries, has a limit to the number
of times it can be recharged. The useful life will depend on the environmental temperature during
use and charging, calendar age, and how it is used. Only use the device and charge the battery
within the operating temperature range (15 °C to 30 °C).
CAUTION:
Do not leave the battery discharged. The battery will naturally discharge over an extended
period of time. If not using the device for a prolonged period (a week or more) store the device
with the battery partially charged.
