Batteries
Taiwan – Recycling
EPA (Environmental Protection Administration) requires dry battery producing or importing firms in accordance with Article 15 of the Waste Disposal Act are required to indicate the recycling marks on the batteries used in sales, giveaway or promotion. Contact a qualified Taiwanese recycler for proper battery disposal.

Battery Information
Zebra rechargeable battery packs are designed and constructed to the highest standards within the industry. However, there are limitations to how long a battery can operate or be stored before needing replacement. Many factors affect the actual life cycle of a battery pack, such as heat, cold, harsh environmental conditions and severe drops. When batteries are stored over six (6) months, some irreversible deterioration in overall battery quality may occur. Store batteries at half of full charge in a dry, cool place, removed from the equipment to prevent loss of capacity, rusting of metallic parts and electrolyte leakage. When storing batteries for one year or longer, the charge level should be verified at least once a year and charged to half of full charge. Replace the battery when a significant loss of run time is detected. Standard warranty period for batteries is 30 days, regardless if the battery was purchased separately or included as part of the mobile computer or bar code scanner.

Battery Safety Guidelines

  • The area in which the units are charged should be clear of debris and combustible materials or chemicals. Take particular care where the device is charged in a non commercial environment.
  • Follow battery usage, storage, and charging guidelines found in the user’s guide.
  • Improper battery use may result in a fire, explosion, or other hazard.
  • To charge the mobile device battery, the battery and charger temperatures must be between +32 ºF and +104 ºF (0 ºC and +40 ºC)
  • Do not use incompatible batteries and chargers. Use of an incompatible battery or charger may present a risk of fire, explosion, leakage, or other hazard. If you have any questions about the compatibility of a battery or a charger, contact Zebra Global Customer Support Center.
  • For devices that utilize a USB port as a charging source, the device shall only be connected to products that bear the USB-IF logo or have completed the USB-IF compliance program.
  • Do not disassemble or open, crush, bend or deform, puncture, or shred.
  • Severe impact from dropping any battery-operated device on a hard surface could cause the battery to overheat.
  • Do not short circuit a battery or allow metallic or conductive objects to contact the battery terminals.
  • Do not modify or remanufacture, attempt to insert foreign objects into the battery, immerse or expose to water or other liquids, or expose to fire, explosion, or other hazard.
  • Do not leave or store the equipment in or near areas that might get very hot, such as in a parked vehicle or near a radiator or other heat source. Do not place battery into a microwave oven or dryer.
  • Battery usage by children should be supervised.
  • Please follow local regulations to promptly dispose of used re-chargeable batteries.
  • Do not dispose of batteries in fire.
  • Seek medical advice immediately if a battery has been swallowed.
