6.1.3 Maintaining the Internal Floating Battery
To conserve the floating battery when not in use, the skeye.pad POS should
always be stored with a charged battery fitted!
Otherwise the power reserves in the floating battery will be consumed.
Discharged floating batteries must be replaced by qualified service personnel.
If the battery is unlocked, the internal floating battery supplies the RAM with voltage
for 3 minutes. This ensures that the RAM is not deleted during this time and that it is
possible to change the battery while the RAM is in use. After you switch on the
skeye.pad POS, you can continue working from the same point.
The internal floating battery requires no maintenance. The skeye.pad POS
automatically charges the internal floating battery. If the
skeye.pad POS is not placed on a desktop cradle for an extended period, the
internal floating battery is charged from the battery.
6.1.4 Disposing of Old Batteries
Under no circumstances should you dispose of spent batteries in the normal
household trash as the heavy metals they contain pose a serious environmental
hazard.
All spent batteries must be sent to a special disposal facility. For this reason, they
must be returned to Höft & Wessel.
For the relevant address, see Ch. 1.8 Page 17.
As part of its normal service activities, Höft & Wessel ensures that all spent
batteries are properly processed and disposed of.
This system of returning the batteries ensures that the chemicals they contain are
100% recyclable. This circular flow of recyclable resources eliminates any burden
on the environment.
Höft & Wessel guarantees that all returned batteries are fed into this circular flow.
