STORING THE RUGGEDREADER AND BATTERY PACKS
Storage Temperature Range
The RuggedReader can be stored at temperatures between -22° F and
140° F (-30° C to 60° C). If possible, store your RuggedReader indoors.
Doing so helps protect your device from extreme temperatures and helps
it run efficiently at startup.
Storing for Less than Two Weeks
If you plan to store your device for less than two weeks, suspend the
device by following these steps:
1. As a precaution, back up your data onto a desktop computer or an
external storage device such as a CF or SD card.
2. Leave the battery pack in the device.
3. If you plan to store the device longer than a few days, it is a good idea
to leave the device connected to the wall charger to make sure the
battery pack is fully charged.
4. Suspend the device (press the power button briefly and release).
