3M™ Digital Library Assistant User Guide
Handheld Model 702 and Model 802
During storage, the DLA continues to use a small
amount of battery power. Over time (approximately one
week), the battery can lose its charge, requiring you to
perform a reset.
See Using the Change Battery function on page 49.
Battery-use recommendations
• Before use, check the battery gauge. If the battery
gauge shows less than 50% charge remaining,
replace the battery with a fully charged battery, and
place the other battery in the charger.
• Whenever the DLA will not be used for more that a
week, use the Change Battery function to install a
fully charged battery in the DLA.
See the 3M™ Handheld RFID Reader Owners Manual
for instructions on charging the batteries.
