about 14 hrs to bring them to a full charge.
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.
Notes:
NiMH 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.
Do not charge NiMH batteries at temperatures above
45 °C or below 4 °C.
If you connect an external power source to the scanner
please check the switch position of the battery switch.
If the switch is set to REG.ALK.BATT., the scanner
does not charge the batteries. Rechargeable batteries
are only recharged in the NI-MH BATT.. position of the
switch.
For longer operation, You can also use high capacity
NiMH batteries with 2000 mAh or more. Such batteries
may need longer charging time. It is very convenient to
buy such batteries with a charger as a set, most of
them are sold with 4 batteries. So You have always 2
batteries in reserve, and if You need, You can also
charge your batteries faster in the external charger.
Using AC Power
You can power the scanner using an optional 6 V DC, 500 mA
wall adapter AD-671 or equivalent (center pin positive).
Adapters, which do not meet these specifications can damage
your scanner, the adapter or even the batteries.
Plug the AC adapter into the DC 6 V socket and the AC side into
a 230 V wall outlet. If rechargeable batteries are inserted and
the battery switch is in NI-MH BATT. Position, the adapter
powers the scanner and can recharge the batteries at the same
time.
