Battery and Battery Charger
Li-ion Battery
The battery capacity (= the amount of electric current that can be stored) and the battery charge (= the
actual amount of stored current) depend on the age of the battery and the environment temperature. If the
temperatures are below 0 °C (32 °F) or above 40 °C (104 °F), less current can be retrieved.
Please adhere to the following safety notifications in all cases. When the Li-ion battery is improperly
handled, there is the risk of explosion and of fire. This could lead to life-threatening injuries that might
result in death under specific circumstances.
Use the batteries only in connection with the designated devices.
Never use or charge damaged or faulty batteries.
Do not throw the batteries into fire, short-circuit, damage or open them.
Use only the associated charger by HBC-radiomatic to charge the battery.
Charge the battery at an ambient temperature of 0 – 45 °C (32 – 113 °F).
Do not expose the batteries to direct sunlight.
x The batteries have to be recycled or disposed of properly.
In all cases, charge the batteries completel
y before initial use. This ensures that the batteries
have their full capacity in use.
A battery charge of 30 – 50 % is ideal for storing Li-
ion batteries. This charge is reached after
charging an empty battery for approx. 1 hour.
Store the batteries at -15 – +35 °C (5 – 95 °F).
When storing Li-
ion batteries, recharge them after a maximum time of 3 months and adapt the
charging time correspondingly.
When handled properly, Li-ion batteries by HBC-radiomatic can reach up to 500 charging cycles. Even
after that, your batteries can be used for some time with a slightly decreased capacity.
