2. Safety Information
Please read and understand all safety precautions before handling or installing the battery. Failure to follow these instructions may result in fire, explosion, electric shock, or other hazards.
- Do Not Recharge: This is a non-rechargeable battery. Attempting to recharge it may cause leakage, fire, or explosion.
- Proper Polarity: Always observe correct polarity (+ and -) when installing the battery. Incorrect installation can damage the device and the battery.
- Avoid Short Circuits: Do not short-circuit the battery terminals with metal objects. This can cause excessive heat, fire, or explosion.
- Temperature Limits: Do not expose the battery to extreme temperatures (above 85°C or below -60°C) or direct sunlight. Store in a cool, dry place.
- Disposal: Dispose of used batteries according to local regulations. Do not incinerate or mutilate batteries.
- Keep Away from Children: Store batteries out of reach of children and pets. If swallowed, seek immediate medical attention.
- Handle with Care: Do not drop, puncture, or disassemble the battery. If the battery casing is damaged, avoid contact with the internal contents.
3. Setup and Installation
The OmniCel ER34615 battery comes with pre-attached wire leads for simplified connection. Ensure your device is powered off before installation.
- Identify Terminals: Locate the positive (+) and negative (-) connection points on your device. The battery's wire leads are typically color-coded (e.g., red for positive, black for negative).
- Connect Leads: Carefully connect the positive wire lead from the battery to the positive terminal of your device. Similarly, connect the negative wire lead to the negative terminal. Ensure connections are secure and free from loose strands.
- Secure Battery: Place the battery securely within the device's battery compartment, ensuring it does not move freely or come into contact with other components that could cause a short circuit.
- Verify Installation: Once connected, double-check all connections for correct polarity and secure fit.

4. Operating Instructions
Once properly installed, the OmniCel ER34615 battery will provide continuous power to your compatible device. As a primary (non-rechargeable) battery, its operation is passive, supplying consistent voltage until its capacity is depleted.
- Ensure the device requiring power is designed for a 3.6V D-size lithium battery.
- The battery will begin supplying power immediately upon correct installation and device activation.
- Monitor your device's low battery indicator, if available, to determine when replacement is necessary.
5. Maintenance
These batteries require minimal maintenance, but proper handling and storage are crucial for maximizing their lifespan and ensuring safety.
- Storage: Store unused batteries in their original packaging in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Avoid storing with metal objects that could cause a short circuit.
- Inspection: Periodically inspect installed batteries for any signs of damage, leakage, or corrosion. If any issues are observed, replace the battery immediately.
- Cleaning: If necessary, gently wipe the battery's exterior with a dry, clean cloth. Do not use liquids or abrasive cleaners.
- Replacement: Replace batteries when your device indicates low power or ceases to function correctly. Do not mix old and new batteries, or different types of batteries.
6. Troubleshooting
If your device is not functioning after battery installation, consider the following troubleshooting steps:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Device does not power on. | Incorrect battery polarity. | Verify that the positive (+) and negative (-) leads are connected correctly. |
| Device does not power on. | Battery is depleted or faulty. | Replace the battery with a new one. Ensure it is an OmniCel ER34615 or equivalent. |
| Device powers on but functions intermittently. | Loose wire connections. | Check that the wire leads are securely connected to the device's terminals. |
| Battery appears damaged or leaking. | Physical damage or internal fault. | Immediately remove the battery (wearing protective gloves if necessary) and dispose of it safely according to local regulations. Do not attempt to use a damaged battery. |
