Press the button (1) and the four LED’s will indicate the state of charge of the battery pack (2).

Every LED represents 25% of full charge. If the last LED is flashing, this indicates that there is

between 0% and 1% energy left and the HandHeld will either not start on this pack or will shut-

down after a few minutes. Besides on the battery pack itself the charge indicators are also visible

on the HandHeld display.

To insert a battery pack inside the HandHeld remove the back-cover. Make sure you have inser-

ted a compact flash card first if you want to make a recording. Flip down the lid (2 in figure 1).

Insert the pack and press it against the springs until it clicks into place.

5 minutes before the pack runs empty the HandHeld gives a visible warning on the display and a

short beep in the headphone or loudspeaker. Longer warning beeps are given 3,2 and 1 minute

before complete discharge. The last 10 seconds the HandHeld will beep continuously. If at this

point a recording still takes place the recorder will automatically stop and shut down.

Important!:

The NiMH battery pack can only be recharged inside the Docking Station. Use Maycom equip-

ment only for recharging the pack. See Docking Station manual.

If the temperature drops below 0º the performance of the NiMH battery pack can drop with 20%

of its full capacity.

Docking Station

The Docking Station* can also be used to power the HandHeld recorder. Via the Docking Station

it is even possible to connect the HandHeld to a mains adapter or cigarette lighter adapter. For

more information see the Docking Station manual.
