■

Battery chargers

Rapid charging with the BC-160

The BC-160 provides rapid charging of optional Li-Ion battery
packs.

• An AC adapter (may be supplied with BC-160 depending on version)

or the DC power cable (OPC-515L/CP-17L) is additionally required.

•

Charging period:

Approx. 3 hours (with BP-232N)

AD-106 installation

Install the AD-106 desktop charger adapter into the holder
space of the BC-119N/BC-121N.

Connect the plugs of the BC-119N/BC-121N to the AD-106
desktop charger adapter with the connector, then install
the adapter into the charger with the supplied screws.
