At that time, do not use alcohol, hypochlorous acid water, solvent, or abrasives.
• Antibacterial and antiviral processing is applied to the colored area.

This product is not a medical product. Nor does h guarantee infection prevention. Japanese standard antibacterial performance test (JIS Z 2801) and anti-virus performance test (IS021702) have been conflicted, but it is a verification test for special bacteria and viruses, not for all bacteria and viruses.

Discharging

• Since the maximum discharging power is specified in the specifications for each of the main connector, D-Tap and USB, be sire to pay attention to the power consumption of the connected device. If it exceeds the maximum discharge power, the safety protection function may be activated and ii will slop discharging and may cause damage the battery. If the fuse is blown off due to an over load, the battery won’t recover.
• The battery life may diminish if high loads are applied frequently.
• Battery run-lime may reduce when used in extreme high and low temperatures. IDX highly recommends to use the battery in ambient temperatures of 50~104°F ( 10″C~40″C )
• The discharge characteristics of lithium ion batteries illustrate a steady curve until 13V. At 13V, the discharge curve sharply drops. For this reason, IDX recommends setting the camera’s “Low Voltage” alarm settings to13~ 13.5V. Refer to battery settings on the camera’s user manual.
• The battery will automatically stop discharging when the voltage reaches 11V. To extend battery life, IDX recommends to stop Listing before the battery reaches 12V.
• Microwave transmitters with 5W outputs or more should be kept as far away from the battery as possible. High power transmitters may disrupt or stop supplying power.
• Please be sure to remove the battery from the device after use. If a battery left mounted on the device that has large standby power, the battery’s residual capacity will become lower and the over-discharge protection may be activated.
• Please do not use the batteries connected in series. This may cause the damage.

Charging

• When charging from the main connector of this battery, or D-Tap2 connector, be sure to use IDX Brand compatible charger models, and do not charge with a charger made by other company. Please refer to the charger manual for charging method information.
• Estimated charging times may vary depending on the charger and condition of the battery. Refer to our website for more details.
• The ambient temperature range for charging is 32~104°F ( 0~40″C ); however, 50~ 86°F( 10~30°( J is recommended for optimizing the charging perfonnance. When the battery is charged in temperatures 32°F( O’C ) or below, it may not filly charge, even if the designated charge lime has elapsed.
• Charging outside of the recommended temperature range can accelerate cell deterioration.
• Please use IDX D-Tap charger when charging the battery through the D-Tap2 connector.
• Lithium ion batteries have a slight self discharge; therefore, IDX recommends to charge prior to use.
• Can not be charged using with C-NP2E,C-VAL2E.
  • Please refer to [USB] on this manila for charging with the USB-C terminal.

The policy of IDX is to value safety above all other considerations and for this CAUT10 reason, the DUO batteries cannot be charged when the internal temperature of the batteries is below 32°F(O”C) or over 104″F(40’C). During use the internal temperature of all batteries rise. IDX monitor this temperature in the DUO batteries and if it is fooling to exceed 104°F(40’C) a protection circuit will trigger an error message on an IDX charger should charging be attempted whilst the battery is in this over temperature state. The error sign will cease once the battery is back within the correct temperature range and charging will resume.

• If the internal temperature of the battery below 32’F(O”C) or exceeds 104″F(40″C), when the battery capacity check button is pressed, the remaining capacity will be displayed with LEDs for 1 second. After that all LEDs will flash 2 times.

Reference time intervals for the internal temperature to drop below 104°F(40″C) following discharge. (Ambient Temperature: approx. 77″F(25’C))

The LED may not light up, if the battery is left without charging. In that case, the charger won’t start charging the battery if the battery is attached, and the LED will blink. The charger will start charging and the LED will light up by putting on and taking off the battery twice over.

Protection circuitry

• There are four types of protection circuits to ensure the battery is protected from Over-charge, Over-discharge, Over-current and Thermal protection. If the flies’ is blown, the battery is no longer operable.
• When temperature of inside of the battery reaches 167°F (75″C ), battery stops discharging automatically. Discharge will restart when the inside temperature becomes 140’F (60″C) or less.
• Please charge the battery quickly, if the over-discharge protection is activated. The battery may become unleasable, if leave it without charging.
• If over-current protection is activated, the battery resume discharging by pressing the remaining capacity check button about one minute after removing the connected device.
