Battery

Installing the Battery

Important • Batteries are shipped partially charged. Remove

protective shrink-wrap and labels from new battery packs prior to use.

1. Locate the battery compartment on the bottom of the

printer.

2. Swivel the belt clip (if present) to access battery compart-

ment.

3. Insert the battery into the printer as shown in Figure 3. (It

is not possible to insert the pack in an incorrect orienta-

tion.)

4. Rock the battery into the compartment as shown until it

locks in place.

When the battery is first installed, the control panel indica-

tors may briefly turn on and then go off which indicates the

battery is not fully charged (see “Charging the Battery” below

and “Operator Controls”).

You must charge the batteries fully before using them for the

first time. To ensure maximum battery capacity, new batteries

should go through two or three complete charge/discharge cy-

cles when first put into service.
