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.
2. Slide the battery pack toward the side panel where the cassette cover is located until it clicks. Now the battery pack has been attached.
Detaching the Battery Pack
While pushing and holding the release lever, slide the battery pack toward the side panel where the LCD display is located, then pull the battery pack outward to remove.
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. |
●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.
