Important: Before opening the battery cover to replace a battery, it is critical
that you read “Removing And Installing The Battery Pack” on
page 34 and “Safely Swapping The Main Battery” on page 27 for
details about safely swapping the battery.
Battery packs shipped from the factory are charged to approximately 40% and must
be fully charged prior to use. Batteries can be charged using a variety of chargers
and docking stations along with a WORKABOUT PRO internal charger. When
using the internal charger, a suitable power source is required. All chargers and
docking stations are described in Chapter 9: Peripheral Devices & Accessories
beginning on page 297.
Note: If you are powering up a new unit, a warning message may appear on the
screen indicating that the backup battery capacity is low. To recharge the
internal battery, you must fully charge the WORKABOUT PRO with
the
main
battery installed in the unit. An overnight charge is recommended.
Important: Before opening the battery cover on your WORKABOUT PRO,
you must turn off the hand-held. If the battery cover is opened
while the hand-held is still powered on, the unit may reboot.
