Cautions:

•Use only fresh batteries of the required size and recommended type.

•Always remove old or weak batteries. Batteries can leak chemicals that destroy electronic circuits.

•Do not mix old and new batteries, different types of batteries (standard, alkaline, or rechargeable), or rechargeable batteries of different capacities.

WARNING!

Do not connect either adapter to the scanner if non- rechargeable batteries (such as alkaline batteries) are installed in the scanner and REG. ALK. BATT./ NI-MH BATT. is set to NI-MH BATT (this is the default setting with the sticker) or if you are unsure of the switch’s position. Non-rechargeable batteries will get hot and can even burst if you try to recharge them.

Before you use Ni-MH or Ni-Cd batteries for the first time, charge them for 16 hours to bring them to a full charge. Discharged batteries take about 16 hours to fully recharge.

Notes:

•Ni-MH batteries last longer and deliver more power if you occasionally let them fully discharge. To do this, simply use the scanner

until it beeps every 15 seconds and flashes.

•To prevent damage to Ni-MH batteries, never charge them in an area where the temperature is above 113°F (45°C) or below 40°F (4°C).
