Charging the Device

To achieve optimal charging results, use only Zebra charging accessories and batteries. Charge batteries at room temperature with the device in sleep mode.
A standard battery charges from fully depleted to 90% in approximately 4 hours and from fully depleted to 100% in approximately 5 hours. In many cases, a 90% charge provides enough charge for daily use. Depending on the usage profile, a full 100% charge may last for approximately 14 hours of use.
Ensure that you follow the guidelines for battery safety described in the Product Reference Guide.
The device or accessory always performs battery charging in a safe and intelligent manner. The device or accessory indicates when charging is disabled due to abnormal temperatures via its LED, and a notification appears on the device display.
