7. Battery
7.1 Changing the battery
The AMX 5x or 6x for the x.com unit may only be changed outside the Ex-area. (The model
number AMX 60 may be followed by additional letters or numbers, which are of no relevance to
the Ex-area, e.g. AMX 50 / AMX 51 / AMX 60 or AMX 61.) Only those battery modules which are
approved by the manufacturer may be used. Other battery modules may not be taken.
7.1.1 Removing the battery
Follow these steps to remove the battery (for example, when exchanging the SIM card): After
removing the charging socket cover (safety plug for x.com 60x –Ex / not applicable for
x.com 51x –Ex and 61x-Ex) turn the phone over. Exert pressure in the centre of the recess on
the cover and then remove it.

24
x.com 5xx -Ex and x.com 61x -Ex:
After removing the charging socket cover (x.com 50x –Ex) respectively the safety plug
(x.com 60x –Ex) - not applicable for x.com 51x -Ex and x.com 61x -Ex -, turn the mobile
phone.
7.1.2 Inserting the battery
Proceed as follows to insert the battery: Insert the battery module with the two catches (located
at the top of the battery) placed in the recesses in the mobile phone. Then press the bottom of

25
the battery module into the phone until the retaining spring audibly clicks in place. Mount the
charging socket cover (x.com 50x –Ex) respectively the safety plug (x.com 60x –Ex)
7.1.3 Charging the battery
Your phone is supplied with power via a rechargeable battery. Before a new battery
can be used for the first time it must have been charged for at least 4 hours. The
full battery performance is only obtained after a few operating cycles.
If the battery charge level falls below the operating value, the phone will indicate
this (the empty battery symbol flashes). When this appears charge the battery for at
least 15 minutes before making any other calls, in order to prevent your call from
being interrupted.
Proceed as follows to charge the battery:
Connect the charger to a wall outlet.
Insert the end of the charging plug into the designated charging socket.
The phone‘s battery will now be charged. The battery symbol indicates that the
battery is being charged. When the battery is fully charged the charging process
stops automatically. Remove the charging plug from the phone.
Batteries can become warm during the charging process. This is a normal occurrence.
NOTE
- There is a risk of explosion if the battery is not exchanged properly or if it is exposed to a
flame.
- Do not short-circuit the battery.
- The battery does not contain any parts that can be exchanged.
- The casing of the battery should not be opened under any circumstances.
- Only use ecom charging accessories (see point 4).
- The use of other chargers or batteries is not permitted. If such items are used, your
Ex-protection will expire.
- Used batteries are to be disposed of properly.

26
- If you do not intend using the phone for a prolonged period, you should remove the battery.
- We strongly advise against connecting your phone to the charger if the battery is not inserted.
- If the battery is completely discharged, the phone will not switch on. Connect the phone to
the charger. After charging for a few minutes the phone will switch on. When the Start option
appears in the display, you can use the phone again.
7.2 Safety information
Damaged batteries and chargers should be removed from use and sent to ecom instruments
GmbH for inspection.
Attention:
- Extreme temperatures can have an adverse effect on charging the battery module
AMX 5x or AMX 6x.
- Do not dispose of the battery module in a fire!
- Do not short-circuit the battery module!
- Dispose of the battery module in accordance with local regulations. Do not dispose of the
battery module with normal household waste.
8. Repair
Repairs are to be conducted by ecom instruments GmbH or by personnel or service centres
authorised by ecom instruments GmbH, because the safety of the unit needs to be tested after
repairs are implemented.
