Battery Maintenance
Battery maintenance is recognized as one of the important steps in ensuring the safe and efficient running of equipment. It is an essential component and needs to be powerful enough to provide the equipment with enough energy to meet the demands of the user. Proper maintenance of the battery can keep user operation running smoothly. However, the appropriate procedure for battery maintenance is often overlooked. Performing maintenance in the correct order is just as essential as the maintenance steps themselves when it comes to saving time, extending the lifespan of your battery, and protecting your equipment。

Here are some battery maintenance tips to follow:

1. Fully charge the battery before use;
2. Don’t stop the charging process. Cutting the charging cycle will shorten the lifespan of your battery;
3. Avoid frequent deep-discharges
4. Don’t let a discharged battery sit for too long before you recharge
5. Don’t allow the battery to drop below 20% capacity before charging.
6. Turn the power off and allow the battery to cool before removing it.
7. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight.
8. Be aware of the battery’s temperature when charging. Excessive heat will shorten the battery lifespan.

FCC Statement

The Wireless Scanning Module has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, under part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used by the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.
• Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Caution:

Any changes or modi?
cations to this device not explicitly approved by the manufacturer could void your authority to operate this equipment.

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules.

Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) information:
The Wireless Scanning Module meets the government’s requirements for exposure to radio waves. The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The standards include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons regardless of age or health. FCC RF Exposure Information and Statement The SAR limit of the USA (FCC) is 1.6 W/kg averaging over one gram of tissue. Device types: Wireless Scanning Module has also been tested against this SAR limit.

This device was tested for typical body-worn operations with the back of the Wireless Scanning Module kept 0mm from the body. To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure requirements, use accessories that maintain a 0mm separation distance between the user’s body and the back of the Wireless Scanning Module. The use of belt clips, holsters and similar accessories should not contain metallic components in their assembly. The use of accessories that do not satisfy these requirements may not comply with FCC RF exposure requirements and should be avoided.
