3. Storage
MiR1350 Pallet Lift Quick Start (en) 06/2023 - v.1.5 ©Copyright 2021–2023: Mobile Industrial Robots A/S. 15
3. Storage
The main component that can be affected by storage is the robot's battery. It is important to keep
track of the battery percentage both before and while the robot or battery is in storage to ensure
the battery is not damaged by being undercharged.
3.1 Preparing the robot for storage
If you are taking the robot out of operation for any duration, we recommend the following:
lCharge the robot's battery before storage.
lStore the robot in an area at room temperature with a non-condensing relative air humidity—
see specifications on MiR Support Portal. Temperatures and humidity below or above the
specifications will shorten the service life of the battery.
lProtect the battery immediately after disconnecting it from the battery charger or robot. Never
allow any moisture or foreign particles to get into the battery. If you store the battery outside
the robot, you can protect the battery by storing it in a clean and airtight container or plastic
wrap.
lDisconnect the battery from the robot before storing the robot. You can store the battery
inside the robot, but keeping the battery connected to the robot greatly reduces the storage
time. Make sure to disconnect the battery completely.
lCheck the state of charge of the battery regularly, and make sure to recharge the battery if the
state of charge is low. Always disconnect the battery after checking or charging it.
3.2 Storage time
The storage time of the robot and battery depends on the battery's state of charge, the storage
conditions, and the battery version. For more information about storage time, see MiR 48V Battery
Technical Guide. You can find this guide on MiR Support Portal.
The storage times in this guide apply for new batteries. Over time, the storage time will shorten.

3. Storage
MiR1350 Pallet Lift Quick Start (en) 06/2023 - v.1.5 ©Copyright 2021–2023: Mobile Industrial Robots A/S. 16
CAUTION
If the battery is stored incorrectly or stored for too long, it will reach an
undercharged state where the battery cells may be damaged or the battery shuts
down permanently.
lAlways check that the battery is disconnected before storing the robot. If the
battery is connected to the robot, the storage time is reduced significantly.
lCheck the battery percentage and charge the battery regularly to ensure it is not
undercharged.

MiR1350 Pallet Lift Quick Start (en) 06/2023 - v.1.5 ©Copyright 2021–2023: Mobile Industrial Robots A/S. 17
4. Light indicators and speaker
The robot uses its speaker and two types of light indicators to let people in the environment know
what the robot is currently doing or planning to do.
lStatus lights
The LED light bands on all four sides of the robot use colors and light motion patterns to signal
the current status of the robot.
lSignal lights
The signal lights at the front and back of the robot show if the robot is about to turn a corner or
go backward. Front lights are white and rear lights are red. Right and left turns are indicated by
blinking.
lSpeaker
The speaker plays sounds to alert personnel. You can trigger sounds using zones and mission
actions, and you can enable the robot to play warning sounds whenever the Protective fields
are muted.

MiR1350 Pallet Lift Quick Start (en) 06/2023 - v.1.5 ©Copyright 2021–2023: Mobile Industrial Robots A/S. 19
The signal lights work similarly to lights used on cars; white at the front, red at the back, and
indicating a left or right turn by blinking.
When the robot drives with muted Protective fields, for example, when docking to a charging
station, all signal lights blink yellow.
4.3 Speaker
In Setup > Sounds, you can upload new sounds to the robot or edit the volume and length of the
default sounds.
Sounds can be used in missions and zones to alert or to attract people's attention.
For more information about how to set up sounds, see MiRCommissioning Guide. You can find this
guide on MiR Support Portal.
When the robot drives with muted Protective fields it emits a warning sound. In System >
Settings > Safety system, you can choose which sound the robot makes and the volume of the
sound.
