This section provides information for charging the device.
Ensure that you follow the guidelines for battery safety described in the TC52x/TC52x-HC/TC57x Product Reference Guide.
To charge the main battery, connect the charging accessory to the appropriate power source.
Insert the device into a cradle or attach to a cable. The device turns on and begins charging. The Charging/Notification LED blinks amber while charging, then turns solid green when fully charged.
The battery charges from fully depleted to 90% in approximately 2.5 hours and from fully depleted to 100% in approximately three hours. In many cases the 90% charge provides plenty of charge for daily use. A full 100% charge lasts for approximately 14 hours of use. To achieve the best charging results use only Zebra charging accessories and batteries. Charge batteries at room temperature with the device in sleep mode.
