3.1 Battery Tips
Battery life depends on the network, signal strength, temperature, features, and
accessories you use.
Ø Always use Sendum Original batteries and battery chargers. The warranty does
not cover damage caused by non-Sendum batteries and/or chargers.
Ø New batteries or batteries stored for a long time may take more time to charge.
Ø When charging your battery, keep it near room temperature.
Ø When storing your battery, keep it uncharged in a cool, dark, dry place, such as a
refrigerator.
Ø Never expose batteries to temperatures below -10°C (14°F) or above 45°C
(113°F). Always take your device with you when you leave your vehicle.
Ø It is normal for batteries to gradually wear down and require longer charging
times. If you notice a change in your battery life, it is probably time to purchase a
new battery.
Contact your local recycling center for proper battery disposal.
Warning: Never dispose of batteries in a fire because they may explode.
Before using your device, please read the battery safety information in the Safety and
General Information section included in this guide.
