8. Rechargeable battery and commissioning
8.1 Changing the battery
The AM X20 battery module for the x.com 200 –Ex unit may
only be changed outside the Ex-area. Only those battery
modules which are approved by the manufacturer for your
device type may be used (see Safety regulations under point
4). Other battery modules may not be taken into the Ex-area.
8.2 Commissioning
1) Unscrewing the cover:
Switch off the phone. To
open the battery compart-
ment cover turn the screws
in the cover anti-clockwise.
2) Lifting the cover:
Remove the cover for the
battery compartment.
3) Inserting the SIM:
Remove the battery. Slide the
silver card holder to the right
and carefully lift the SIM card
holder. Insert the SIM card
into the designated holder in
the lower part of the phone.

21
4) Securing the SIM:
Lower the SIM card holder.
Slide the card holder gently to
the left over the SIM card.
5) Inserting the battery:
Insert the battery. Close
the cover for the battery
compartment. Turn the screws
of the battery compartment
clockwise.
6) Charging the phone:
The battery supplied with the
phone is not fully charged. It
is recommended to charge
the phone for three hours be-
fore using it for the first time.
The full capacity of the battery
is reached after 4-6 complete
charge/discharge cycles.
IMPORTANT: To ensure water tightness the screws should
only be tightened by hand!

22
NOTE - There is a risk of explosion if the battery is not ex-
changed 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 ex-
changed. 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.
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 and the display will not show a charging process.
Connect the phone to the charger. After charging for a few
minutes the display will appear again and you can then
switch on the phone.
8.3 Safety precautions
Damaged batteries and chargers should be removed from
use and sent to ecom instruments GmbH for inspection.
Note:
Extreme temperatures can have an adverse effect on char-
ging the battery module AM X20.
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.
High quality lithium-ion batteries are used in your x.com 200
–Ex. These batteries have numerous advantages in everyday
use, such as a low weight and high capacity in a nevertheless
compact construction. In addition these batteries also exhibit
practically no memory effect.

23
However, these batteries are susceptible to a natural ageing
process which impairs their functionality. Modern batteries
today have a lifespan of around 500 charge cycles, which,
when used daily, corresponds to a service life of approxi-
mately 2 years. The ageing process increases rapidly after
this period, which means that the batteries are deemed
technically defective after 500 charge cycles. Moreover, the
batteries could blow up and cause irreparable damage to
your device in a worst case scenario.
For this reason rechargeable batteries with lithium cells
should be replaced after 2 years at the latest or after reaching
a battery capacity that is 50% of its initial value.
Note: The battery used in this unit poses a fire hazard and
can cause chemical injuries if it is used improperly. Neit-
her the battery nor the battery cells should be opened or
disassembled and they should not be burned or exposed to
temperatures exceeding 100 °C.
9. 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.
10. Cleaning, maintenance and storage
- Only use a suitable cloth or sponge to clean the phone.
Do not use any solvents or abrasive cleaning agents when
cleaning.
- It is recommended that you have the functionality and
accuracy of the phone inspected by the manufacturer every
two years.
- The battery should be removed from the phone during
prolonged periods of storage.
- Do not exceed the permissible storage temperature range of
-20 °C ... +50 °C!

11. Disposal
Old electrical devices as well as „historical“ old electrical
devices from ecom instruments GmbH are supplied for
disposal at our expense and disposed of free of charge in
accordance with European Directive 2002/96/EC and the
German electrical law of 16/03/2005. The costs associated
with returning devices to ecom instruments GmbH are to be
borne by the sender.
In accordance with Article 1, Section 18 and Article 2 of the
Act revising the law of Waste-Related Product Responsibility
for Batteries and Accumulators (Gesetz zur Neuregelung der
abfallrechtlichen Produktverantwortung für Batterien und
Akkumulatoren) dated 25 June 2009, we are obligated to
provide the following information.
Your device contains a rechargeable lithium battery.
Depleted batteries or rechargeable batteries that can no
longer be recharged should never be disposed of along with
normal or household waste. Old batteries can contain harmful
substances that are hazardous to health and damaging to the
environment. Please return the batteries/rechargeable batte-
ries. Return is free of charge and required by law. Please only
dispose of discharged batteries in the designated containers
and tape the terminals of lithium batteries.
Note: The battery used in this unit poses a fire hazard and
can cause chemical injuries if it is used improperly. Neit-
her the battery nor the battery cells should be opened or
disassembled and they should not be burned or exposed to
temperatures exceeding 100°C. If the battery needs to be dis-
posed of, it can be removed as described under point (8.1).
The disposal regulations specified above are also applicable
for old devices. All batteries and rechargeable batteries can
be recycled. Precious raw materials such as iron, zinc and
nickel can therefore be reused.
The symbol has the following meaning: Batteries and
rechargeable batteries should not be disposed of along with
normal or household waste.

or limitation of accompanying or consequential damage
is not permissible in certain countries, it may be that the
aforementioned limitations and exclusions are not valid for
every purchaser. Should any such clause of these warranty
conditions be declared ineffective or unenforceable by a
