Nighthawk LTE Mobile Hotspot Router Model MR1100 Battery Tips The following tips explain best practices for battery usage and care: • Charge batteries in a room-temperature environment, which is generally between 68°F and 79° F (20°C and 26°C). Charging might be temporarily disabled if the battery temperature exceeds 113°F (60°C). If the battery temperature is hot, but less than 113°F (60°C), the battery charges, but at a slower rate than usual. • If a battery exhibits significantly shorter runtime or discharge capacity compared to when it was new, it reached the end of its reasonable lifetime. Consider replacing it. • If a battery does not charge or exhibits excessive charging time, it is possible that it reached the end of its life and might need to be replaced. • All batteries degrade and lose charge capacity over time as a result of use or storage and must eventually be replaced. • Batteries are best stored in a cool, dark, dry place. Avoid storage in direct sunlight and in vehicles parked outdoors. • Batteries might get warm while charging and discharging. This is normal behavior for all batteries. • Use the AC adapter and the USB cable that came with this device. • Use the latest firmware. Check for updates on a regular basis. • Device performance and runtime are affected by workload or usage. Higher workloads or usage can lead to higher battery temperatures and faster battery power consumption. • Streaming large amounts of data affects the power consumption and reduces the operating time of the battery. General Battery Safety Observe the following guidelines: • Stop using a battery if its case appears damaged, swollen, or compromised. Examples include, but are not limited to, leaking, odors, dents, corrosion, rust, cracks, swelling, melting, and scratches. • Do not expose batteries to fire or other heat generating environments. • Do not place the battery or the device in areas that might get hot. Examples include, but are not limited to, on or near a space heater, cooking surface, cooking appliance, iron, radiator, or fireplace. • Do not get the battery or the device wet. Even though it might dry and appear to operate normally, the circuitry can slowly corrode and defeat its safety circuitry. • Do not crush, puncture, deform, or put a high degree of pressure on the battery, which can cause an internal short circuit, resulting in overheating. • Avoid dropping the battery or the device. Dropping it, especially on a hard surface, might cause damage to the battery and the device. If you suspect damage to the battery or the device, replace it. • When the battery is outside the device, do not allow the battery to come in contact with metal objects, such as coins, buttons, jewelry, or tools. • Do not disassemble or modify batteries. Do not use a battery for anything other than its intended purpose. Manage Battery Usage and Charging 26
