Levels
When the HANDHELD is powered from its rechargeable battery, a
Power Shutdown feature protects the battery from discharging
completely. A complete discharge could damage the battery.
Note: It is not
recommended to allow the
battery to discharge
completely.
The battery levels are displayed in Table 4-2.
After the pump shutdown level and before the battery reaches its
critical low point, the instrument will shut down all power. To prevent
loss of power, attach the AC cord and plug into an outlet as soon as the
BATT LOW! message appears on the screen.
