Batteries
When the main battery has lost most of its charge, an icon of an “empty” or “half-empty” battery
appears.
The MX6 PPC also may be programmed to emit a beep at intervals when the battery is low. When
you see the empty-battery icon or hear the warning beeps, you should turn the unit off and
recharge or replace the battery as soon as possible. The backup battery will retain all data in
memory for 30 minutes while the main battery is out of the unit.
After you recharge or replace the battery and turn the unit back on, it returns to wherever you
were in your application when you turned it off.

transporting the battery making sure it does not come in contact with excessive heat or any power
source other than the LXE MX6 dock. This product is not designed to use alkaline batteries.
