You can also use six rechargeable nickel-cadmium batter- ies (such as Cat. No. 23-125) to power the scanner. To charge or recharge nickel-cadmium batteries, however, you must remove them from the scanner and use an ex- ternal charger (such as Cat. No. 23-134).

Note: If you are using a rechargeable scanner battery pack, you must charge it before you can use your scanner (see “Charging a Rechargeable Battery Pack” on Page 14).

Caution: Do not mix old and new batteries, different types of batteries (standard, alkaline, or rechargeable), or re- chargeable batteries of different capacities.

1.Press down on the battery compartment cover on the bottom of the scanner and slide the cover in the direction of the arrow to remove it.
