Using Rechargeable Batteries
Before you use NiMH batteries the first time, you must
charge them. The scanner has a built-in circuit that lets you
recharge NiMH batteries while they are inserted in the
scanner. Before you can charge such batteries, you must
remove the sticker in the battery compartment and move the
switch to Ni-MH BATT. position. (The default setting of the
switch is for regular alkaline batteries REG.ALK.BATT). Then
install the batteries in the scanner and connect an optional
external AC adapter to the scanner's 6 V socket.
Charge new NiMH batteries, if You use them for the first
time, about 14 hours to bring them to a full charge.
WARNING!
Do not connect any AC adapter to the scanner if non-
rechargeable standard batteries are installed and the switch is
still in NI-MH BATT position or if you are not sure in which
position the switch is. Please make sure that for non-
rechargeable batteries the only allowed switch position is
REG.ALK.BATT. Non rechargeable batteries will get hot and
can even burst if you should try to charge them.
