•Yellow – Rechargeable.

3.Place the battery holder into the battery compartment and replace the cover.

To charge batteries:
, 1.	Install rechargeable batteries.
2.	Connect an external power source to the
	PWR DC 9V jack. Using the scanner while
	charging will increase charge time.

	Battery		Current	Charge Time

	Ni-MH		1600 mAh	16 hours

	Ni-Cd		600 mAh	6 hours

	Ni-Cd		850 mAh	8 hours

	Do not overcharge batteries. Overcharging
	shortens battery life.
• Each battery holder fits only one way. Do
	not force it.
•	Use only fresh batteries of the required size
	and recommended type. Do not mix old
	and new batteries, different types (alkaline
	or rechargeable), or rechargeable batteries
	of different capacities.

• Remove old or weak batteries. If you will not use the scanner with batteries for a month, remove the batteries. Batteries can leak chemicals that destroy electronic circuits.

• Always dispose of old batteries promptly and properly. Do not bury or burn them.
