CHARGING THE BATTERY PACK

Plug the unit into a 12-Volt or 24-Volt connector to charge. The unit can be used while it is charging. Charge the unit within the following temperature range: 32° to

104°F (0° to 40°C).

Charging the unit’s battery pack:

1)Align the notches on the unit with the vehicle power cable plug.

2)Push the plug into the external power connector until fully seated.

3)Plug the power cable into the aircraft power outlet (cigarette lighter receptacle).

4)Route the power cable so that it does not interfere with aircraft operation.

The unit begins charging as soon as external power is applied. When the unit in Charge Mode it reduces the draw on the aircraft’s battery.

Using charge mode

NOTE: While in Charge Mode, the unit draws a current from the aircraft. To avoid discharging the aircraft’s battery, disconnect the external power cable from the unit when not in use for several days.

Applying external power to the GPSMAP 695/696 automatically turns on the unit for full operation. If the battery is present and needs to be charged, the external power source charges the battery while the unit is in use.
