Installing the Battery Pack
6 PowerScan™ BT8300
As with other types of batteries, Lithium-Ion (LI) batteries will lose capacity over
time. Capacity deterioration is noticeable after one year of service whether the
battery is in use or not. It is difficult to precisely predict the finite life of a LI
battery, but cell manufacturers rate them at 500 charge cycles. In other words, the
batteries should be expected to take 500 full discharge / charge cycles before
needing replacement. This number is higher if partial discharging / recharging is
adhered to rather than full / deep discharging,
The typical manufacturer advertised useful life of LI batteries is one to three years,
depending on usage and number of charges, etc., after which they should be
removed from service, especially in mission critical applications. Do not continue
to use a battery that is showing excessive loss of capacity, it should be properly
recycled / disposed of and replaced. For most applications, batteries should be
replaced after one year of service to maintain customer satisfaction and minimize
safety concerns.
Collect and recycle waste batteries separately from the device in comply with
European Directive 2006/66/EC, 2002/95/EC, 2002/96/EC and subsequent
modifications, US and China regulatory and others laws and regulations about the
environment.
CAUTION
Always charge the battery at 32° – 113°F (0° - 45°C) tempera-
ture range.
Use only the authorized power supplies, battery pack, char-
gers, and docks supplied by your Datalogic reseller. The use of
any other power supplies can damage the device and void your
warranty.
Do not disassemble or modify the battery. The battery contains
safety and protection devices, which, if damaged, may cause
the battery to generate heat, explode or ignite.
Do not place the battery in or near fire, on stoves or other high
temperature locations.
Do not place the battery in direct sunlight, or use or store the
battery inside cars in hot weather. Doing so may cause the bat-
tery to generate heat, explode or ignite. Using the battery in
this manner may also result in a loss of performance and a
shortened life expectancy.
Do not place the battery in microwave ovens, high-pressure
containers or on induction cookware.
Immediately discontinue use of the battery if, while using,
charging or storing the battery, the battery emits an unusual
smell, feels hot, changes color or shape, or appears abnormal
in any other way.
Do not replace the battery pack when the device is turned on.
Do not remove or damage the battery pack’s label.
Do not use the battery pack if it is damaged in any part.
Battery pack usage by children should be supervised.
