2 Transportation and Storage
ATTENTION
The rechargeable battery for the Mobile Handheld Computer is a
lithium ion rechargeable battery pack. Lithium ion rechargeable
batteries can explode if they are subjected to fire or heat. The
rechargeable battery pack may not be taken apart and subjected to
fire or heat (greater than 60 °C/140 °F).
ATTENTION
Do not set the Mobile Handheld Computer, battery, docking station
or power supply near heat sources (heater blowers, etc.) and never
subject it to direct solar radiation, excess quantities of dust or
shocks. Make sure that there is no stumbling hazard due to
connection cable or power supplies.
The maximum permissible ambient temperatures for the
M2Smart®SE with battery are listed below.
Operating temperature: -20 °C to 50 °C/-4 °F to 122 °F*
