Using the Battery
The CK3 uses an AB17 standard or AB18 extended battery as its main
power source. The standard battery has a 7.4 Watt hour capacity, and
the extended battery has a 18.8 Watt hour capacity. Several factors
determine the life of your battery, such as extreme temperatures,
input devices, and your usage.
You must fully charge the battery before you can use the CK3. When
you change the battery, an internal super capacitor maintains your
status, memory, and real-time clock for approximately 10 minutes.
For replacement batteries, contact your Intermec representative.
The battery used in this device may present a fire or chemical
burn hazard if it is mistreated. Do not disassemble it, heat it
above 100°C (212°F) or incinerate it. Dispose of used batteries
promptly. Keep away from children.
If you fail to replace the low battery immediately, you may lose
important data or applications.
Note: If the CK3 is not using external power and you remove the
battery pack, the CK3 goes into Suspend mode.
