Maximizing Battery Life

Batteries are chemical devices. If the batteries are left sitting on a shelf

for long periods of time outside the CN3, the batteries slowly

discharge, eventually to zero if left uncharged. The battery chemistry

resists normal degradation if you store the battery in a charger as

opposed to leaving the battery in a discharged state. See the following

table for tips you can do to maximize the life of your battery.

Battery Conservation Tips

When You Want To: Do This to Save Battery Power:

Operate the CN3 and the

Low Battery status icon

appears or the Battery light

comes on.

Press the power button to turn off the CN3.

Remove the battery and insert another fully

charged battery within five minutes or you may

lose data. Or, you can connect the CN3 to an

external power source.

Stop using the CN3 for five

minutes or longer.

Make sure the low battery icon is not on the

screen and that the Battery light is not turned

on. Press the power button to turn off the CN3.

Store the CN3 for more

than a day.

If you are storing the CN3 for a few days, like

over the weekend, install the charged battery or

attach the CN3 to a power source.

If you are storing the CN3 for longer, remove

and charge the battery, then store both the

battery and the CN3 in a cool location.

If the battery in storage is not used in several

months, you should recharge the battery to

keep it at its performance peak.
