STEP 2: Charge the Scanner

Use the included AC adapter to charge the Cordless Hand Scanner. The scanner’s NiMH batteries must be charged for at least 4 hours before the first use. The Battery Status LED will emit a solid red light while charging, and turn off when the batteries are fully charged.

WARNING: Do not attempt to charge alkaline batteries — this may cause alkaline batteries to leak and damage the CHS.

The red Battery Status LED will not function properly if standard AAA alkaline batteries are being used.
