Powering the handheld
The Juno 5 series handheld contains a rechargeable Lithium-ion polymer battery.
Note – Charge the battery completely before using the handheld for the first time. If the battery has
been stored for longer than six months, charge it before use. Trimble recommends charging the battery
for four hours to recharge it fully.
Note – Cold temperatures, or using Bluetooth wireless technology, Wi-Fi, or the cellular modem
consumes additional battery power and so shortens battery life between charges.
