Attaching the Battery Pack | |
1. Align the 3 guide pins of the battery pack with | |
| the guide holes on the battery holder, and push |
| straight to insert the battery pack. |
| The battery cannot be attached properly if the |
| guide pins are not inserted straight. |

| where the cassette cover is located until it clicks. |
| Now the battery pack has been attached. |
Detaching the Battery Pack | |
●When the battery pack is not in use, it must be stored in a cool, dry place.
Do not leave the battery pack in a place where it might be subject to a high temperature (under direct sunlight in a car, etc.), this could cause leakage of the fluid or shorten service life.
●When the terminal section of the battery pack gets dirty, the operating time will be shortened.
●If the operating time becomes greatly reduced even immediately after recharging, the service life of the battery pack is nearly finished. Purchase a new battery pack.
Recharging
●Recharge the battery pack after completely discharging it. Repeated recharging with residual charge remaining could result in reduced battery capacity.
●If the battery capacity is reduced by repeating incomplete recharging, or recharging without discharging, once discharge the battery pack completely, then recharge it to restore the battery capacity.
●If the battery pack is recharged with its internal temperature raised immediately after use, recharging may not be performed completely.
