5 CARE AND MAINTAINENCE
Caring for your iSavi
TM
Your iSavi
TM
is a highly sophisticated electronic device. Complying with the following
recommendations will help you to protect your warranty coverage and extend your terminal’s life:
• Keep your terminal dry. Liquids or moisture can contain minerals that will damage electronic
circuits. If your phone does get wet, dry it with a soft absorbent cloth as soon as possible, remove
the battery module and allow your transceiver and battery to dry completely before reassembling
it.
• The connector covers are intended to protect your terminal. Keep these covers firmly closed at
all times. Ensure that the connectors are free from dust or dirt before connecting any accessory.
When closing the connector cover, ensure the area around the connectors, and the rubber
sealing surfaces of the cover are clean and free from dirt. Ensure that the cover is fully closed to
give maximum protection to your terminal.
• Do not store your terminal in dusty, dirty or damp areas as this may shorten its life.
• Do not store your transceiver and battery in extreme cold and hot areas exceeding a certain
temperature range. Storage temperature range for the transceiver is -40°C to +80°C (-40°F to
+176°F) whereas for the battery it is -20°C to +40°C (-4°F to +104°F). Extreme temperatures can
shorten the life of your terminal and damage the battery.
• Your terminal’s operating temperature range is -25°C to +55°C (-13°F to +131°F). The charging
temperature range is 0°C to +40°C (+32°F to +104°F).
• Avoid often use in high or low temperature environments. Lithium ion batteries have an optimal
working and storage temperature. If they are continually used an extreme temperature
environment, it will negatively affect the battery’s use time and useful cycles.
• If you don't need to use your iSavi
TM
for a long time where the lithium ion battery might be left
unused for 3 months or more, partially recharge the lithium ion battery, then store the device
(recharge the battery to around 30-70% of capacity) to prevent battery damage. You may need to
take the device out of storage and charge again after a few months.
