Battery charging

This product is powered by a built-in rechargeable battery which can not be changed. 

Do not attempt to replace the battery. Rechargeable battery can be charged and 

discharged hundreds of times, but it will eventually wear out. After a period of time 

that will vary depending on the use and usage conditions you may find that the built-in 

battery will power your product for only a couple of hours requiring you to charge more 

frequently. Do charge your device only with the charger provided in the sales package. 

Unplug the charger when not in use. Do not leave the device connected to the charger 

for longer period than needed, since overcharging may shorten the battery lifetime. If 

left unused, a fully charged battery will discharge itself over time. Temperature extremes 

may affect the ability of the battery to charge. Always try to keep the device between 

5 °C and 25 °C (59 °F and 77 °F). Leaving the device in hot or cold places such as in 

closed car in summer or winter conditions will reduce the capacity and lifetime of the 

battery. A device with hot or cold battery may not work for a while even when the battery 

is fully charged. Battery performance is particularly limited in temperatures well below 

freezing. Do not charge in humid environment.

   waterproof.

 

– Do not use or store the device in dusty, dirty areas. Its moving parts and

   components.

   serviceable parts and taking apart the device may expose you to dangerous 

 

   voltages or other hazards
