BATTERY INFORMATION
4 Charging and discharging
Your device is powered by a rechargeable battery.
When the battery voltage drops below low battery threshold, the
device will sound low battery alert and display low battery icon.
The low battery alert will follow the setting in alert mode as
follows:
• Audio only – 3 short chirps
• Vibrate only – 3 short vibrations
• Audio and vibrate – 3 short chirps and vibrations
• Silent – No alert
The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times,
but it will eventually wear out. Recharge your battery only with
Daviscomms approved chargers designated for this device.
Unplug the charger from the electrical plug and the device when
not in use. Do not leave a fully charged battery connected to a
charger, since overcharging may shorten its lifetime. If left
unused, a fully charged battery will lose its charge over time. If
the battery is completely discharged, it may take several minutes 23
before the charging indicator appears on the display or before any
calls can be made.
Never use any charger that is damaged. Leaving the device in hot
or cold places, such as in a closed car in summer or winter
conditions, will reduce the capacity and lifetime of the battery.
Always try to keep the battery between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and
77°F). A device with a hot or cold battery may not work temporar-
ily, even when the battery is fully charged. When battery fault is
detected, the device will display “Charging Fault” on the screen
and freeze everything else. The only way to recover from this
situation is a hardware reset or if the fault self recovers, e.g. in the
case the temperature comes down below threshold.
Do not dispose the device in a re as they may explode. Dispose of
device according to local regulations. Do not dispose as
household waste. Do not dismantle the device. In the event of a
battery leak, do not allow the liquid to come in contact with the
skin or eyes. In the event of such a leak, ush your skin or eyes
immediately with water, or seek medical help.
BATTERY INFORMATION
Exceptions are priority pages (set at capcode level). These pages
will ignore private time and alert as per normal.
The language can be selected at the device. In addition the
European character mapping for the paging will also be activated
according to the language setting.
