Introduction to AC500
In order to prevent data losses or problems, the battery should be replaced after 3
years of utilisation or at least as soon as possible after receiving the "Low battery
Warning" indication.
Don't use a battery older than 3 years for replacement. Do not keep batteries too
long in stock.
In order to avoid any data losses (if needed), the battery replacement should be
done with the system under power. Without battery and power supply there is no
data buffering possible.
Lithium batteries must not be re-charged, not be disassembled and not be
disposed of in fire. They must be stored in a dry place. Exhausted batteries
must be recycled to respect the environment.
