2.	Push the stand tilt cup in
	the extreme down position
	to expose the hole for the
	discharge cycle switch.
3.	Use a pin to push the
	discharge cycle switch
	located beneath the hole.

RECOMMENDED USE

To maintain charge capacity, the NiCd batteries must be discharged fully before charging. We call this process reconditioning.

Recondition if:

∙The batteries were not used within 20 days

∙The batteries were not discharged (approximately two hours of continuous operation) at least once a week

∙Low battery indicators:

∙Both LED’s on the scanner blink

∙The scanner quietly beeps twice while scanning

Recondition once a week if:

∙The batteries do not get discharged for more than 20% (approximately ½ hour) of their capacity before recharging.

Recondition once every two weeks if:

∙The batteries do not get discharged for more than 50% (approximately 1 hour) of their capacity before recharging.

Note: The day to day usage of the NiCd batteries will determine the frequency of the discharges (reconditioning).
