Notes on Using the Rechargeable Li-ion Battery  Before use, fully charge the battery. Do not use it until it is fully charged.  The battery charging must take place in environments between 32°F and 104°F (0°C and 40°C), otherwise the battery will not charge, and the (Battery) indicator will remain lit. If the charging stops because the environment temperature is too low or too high, place the P-touch Label Printer with a temperature between 32°F and 104°F (0°C and 40°C) and try charging again.  If the P-touch Label Printer is used to print, feed, or perform another operation when both the battery is installed and the AC adapter is connected, the (Battery) indicator may turn off and charging may stop even if the battery is not fully charged. Rechargeable Li-ion Battery Characteristics To ensure the highest performance and longest life from the battery:  Do not use or store the battery in a location exposed to extreme high or low temperatures as it may discharge more quickly. This may happen when using a rechargeable Li-ion battery with a high charge (90% charged or more) in a location exposed to high temperatures.  Remove the battery when storing the P-touch Label Printer for long periods of time.  Store a battery with less than a 50% charge in a cool dry place out of direct sunlight.  Recharge the battery every six months if it is stored for long periods of time.  If you touch a part of the P-touch Label Printer while the Li-ion battery is charging, that part of the P-touch Label Printer may feel warm. This is normal, and the P-touch Label Printer may be used safely. However, if the P-touch Label Printer becomes extremely hot, discontinue use.
