Extending Battery Life
Here are some tips for extending the overall life of your battery:
• Never expose the battery to direct sunlight or temperatures over
50°C (122°F).
• Only charge the battery inside the PB22/PB32 using a power
supply or in the 4-bay battery charger (Model AC18).
• Do not set the backlight to always on. The always on setting
disabled automatic power saving modes.
Here are some tips for extending the life of your battery between
charges:
• Press the Standby button to put the printer in Standby mode.
• Remove the battery from the printer if you will not be using it for
three days or more.
• Do not operate the PB22/PB32 in extremely cold temperatures,
the allowable operating cold temperature is -20°C (-4°F). Using
the PB22/PB32 in temperatures below freezing reduces the overall
battery life.
Remember that any rechargeable battery loses its ability to maintain a
charge over time. You can only recharge it a finite number of times
before you must replace it.
