Powering Your Scanner

Using Batteries

Your scanner has a built-in charging circuit to maintain

peak performance of your Nickel-Metal Hydride (Ni-MH)

or Nickel Cadmium (Ni-CD) rechargeable batteries (not

supplied) while they are in the scanner.

For the best performance, use alkaline batteries. For

rechargeable battery holder, we recommend nickel-metal

hydride (Ni-MH) batteries. You must charge rechargeable

batteries before you use them the rst time.

When battery power is low

appears and the scanner

beeps continuously.

Open the battery compartment.

2. Place four AA batteries (not supplied) into one of the

battery holders as indicated by the polarity symbols

(+ and –). For non-rechargeable batteries, use the

black holder; for rechargeable batteries, use the

yellow holder.

3. Place the battery holder into the battery

compartment and replace the cover.

Warning: Never install non-rechargeable batteries in the

rechargeable yellow battery holder. Non-rechargeable

batteries can get hot or explode if you try to recharge them.
