Safety & Regulatory Addendum
852000970 (Rev. A) Dec. 2016
General Safety Rules
Power Supply
This device is intended to be connected to a UL Listed/CSA Certified computer which supplies
power directly to the DL-Axist or else be supplied by a UL Listed/CSA Certified Power Unit
marked “Class 2” or LPS power source rated 5 V, 2.0 A, which supplies power directly to the
DL-Axist via the power connector of the cable.
The adapter package includes three international plug adapters. The adapters must be
plugged in the power supply before the power supply itself is plugged on the wall outlet.
Battery Information
DL-Axist battery pack is not initially fully charged. After installing the battery, charge it with
the USB cable or with the single dock.
Battery Safety Guidelines
NOTE
Read carefully the DL-Axist user manual (available at www.datalogic.com ) before
performing any type of connection to the DL-Axist PDA.
The user is responsible for any damage caused by incorrect use of the equipment or by
inobservance of the indication supplied in the user manual.
CAUTION
• Before using the device and the battery packs, read this Addendum carefully.
• Use only the components and accessories supplied by the manufacturer for the
specific DL-Axist being used.
• Do not attempt to disassemble the DL-Axist PDA , as it does not contain parts
that can be repaired by the user. Any tampering will invalidate the warranty.
• When replacing the battery pack or at the end of the operative life of the DL-
Axist PDA , disposal must be performed in compliance with the laws in force in
your jurisdiction.
• Do not submerge the DL-Axist in liquid products.
• For further information or support, refer to the Datalogic web site: www.data-
logic.com.
CAUTION
By default, the battery pack is disconnected at the factory to avoid damage due to excessive
draining.
Annual replacement of rechargeable battery pack avoids possible risks or abnormalities
and ensures maximum performance.
Avoid storing batteries for long periods in a state of full charge or very low charge.
We recommend charging the battery pack every two to three months to keep its charge at a
moderate level to maximize battery life.
WARNING
Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type.
Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions.
Il y a risque d’explosion si la batterie est remplacée par une batterie de type incorrect.
Mettre au rebut les batteris usagées confor mément aux instructions.
NOTE
Even if the storage temperature range is wider, in order to achieve the longest battery life,
store the terminal and the spare batteries between 20 to 30°C (68 to 86°F).
Charging is allowed in the battery temperature range from 0°C to 45°C.
To maximize operating autonomy, the DL-Axist checks its battery level at all times. If the
battery is not sufficiently charged, the DL-Axist will not turn on when the ON/OFF Power
button is pressed.
In this case, either substitute with a charged battery, insert the DL-Axist into a powered
cradle, or plug it into a wall charger.
To maximize battery life, turn off radios when they are not needed.
WARNING
Installing, charging and/or any other action should be done by authorized personnel and
following this manual.
The battery pack may get hot, explode, ignite, and/or cause serious injury if exposed to
abusive conditions.
If the battery pack is replaced with an improper type, there is risk of explosion and/or fire.
Use the battery box to carry the battery pack, do not put the battery pack in your pocket.
Do not place the battery pack in or near a fire or other heat source; do not place the battery
pack in direct sunlight, or use or store the battery pack inside unventilated areas in hot
weather; do not place the battery pack in microwave ovens, in clothes dryers, in high
pressure containers, on induction cook surfaces or similar devices. Doing so may cause the
battery pack to generate heat, explode or ignite. Using the battery pack in this manner may
also result in a loss of performance and a shortened life expectancy.
Use only a Datalogic approved power supply. The use of an alternative power supply will
void the product warranty, may cause product damage and may cause heat, an explosion, or
fire.
The area in which the units are charged should be clear of debris and combustible materials
or chemicals.
Do not use the battery pack of this terminal to power devices other than this terminal.
Immediately discontinue use of the battery pack if, while using, charging or storing the
battery pack, the battery pack emits an unusual smell, feels hot, changes color or shape, or
appears abnormal in any other way.
Do not short-circuit the battery pack contacts connecting the positive terminal and negative
terminal. This might happen, for example, when you carry a spare battery pack in your
pocket or purse; accidental short–circuiting can occur when a metallic object such as a coin,
clip, or pen causes direct connection of the contacts of the battery pack (these look like
metal strips on the battery pack). Short–circuiting the terminals may damage the battery
pack or the connecting object.
Do not apply voltages to the battery pack contacts.
Do not pierce the battery pack with nails, strike it with a hammer, step on it or otherwise
subject it to strong impacts, pressures, or shocks.
Do not disassemble or modify (i.e. bend, crush or deform) the battery pack. The battery pack
contains safety and protection devices, which, if damaged, may cause the battery pack to
generate heat, explode or ignite.
In case of leakage of liquid from the battery, avoid contact with liquid the skin or eyes. If the
contact occurs, immediately wash the affected area with water and consult a doctor.
Do not solder directly onto the battery pack.
Do not expose the battery pack to liquids.
Avoid any knocks or excessive vibrations. If the device or the battery is dropped, especially
on a hard surface, you should take it to the nearest Authorised Repair Centre for inspection
before continuing to use it.
Before replacing the battery pack, turn off the device or put it in swap battery mode (refer to
the DL-Axist User's Manual).
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.
Collect and recycle waste batteries separately from the device in compliance with European
Directive 2006/66/EC, 2011/65, 2002/96/EC and subsequent modifications, with US and
China regulatory laws and regulations about the environment.
