Battery Replacement
When the battery
is drained, the
HC700 automati-
cally enters "Criti-
cal Low Battery"
state and shuts
down all functions
(the screen turns
off) to preserve the
data in its memory.
The HC700-L allows you to replace batteries without losing
information stored in its memory (“hot swap”). To avoid los-
ing data stored in the memory, a fresh battery must be
installed within five minutes after removing the drained bat-
tery.
To replace a battery perform the following steps:
1. Hold down the Power Button for at least four seconds
until the HC700-L screen turns off.
2. Remove the HC700-L hand-strap (see Figure 4).
3. Press the battery snap
on the battery (see Figure 4) and
pull away the battery from the HC700-L.
4. Insert a fresh battery, bottom end first, into the battery
compartment.
5. Carefully, press the battery top downward until it clicks
and locks in place.
6. Press the Power Button - the HC700-L is now ready for
use.
First Time Battery Charge
Charge the battery before using the HC700-L for the first time
until the status LED inside the Power Button shows steady
green. While charging for the first time, the Status LED starts
flashing orange and turns to steady read. When battery is
fully charged, the LED shows steady green.
The HC700-L Cradle charges the battery most effectively
when it is at room temperature [approx. 68°F (20°C)]. The rec-
