10 KANE 458s MANUAL
BATTERIES
BATTERY TYPE
Your KANE458s uses rechargeable Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH)
batteries - using other battery types may void your KANE458s’ warranty.
WARNING
Although you can use Alkaline batteries you must not charge your
analyser with Alkaline batteries fitted.
Do not mix NiMH batteries of different capacities or from different
manufacturers – all must be identical.
REPLACING BATTERIES
Turn over your analyser and remove its protective rubber cover. Open
the battery compartment & fit 3 NiMH “AA” rechargeable batteries –
check battery polarity is correct. Replace battery cover & protective
rubber cover.
TIME AND DATE
After changing the batteries reset your analyser’s time & date.
CHARGING NIMH BATTERIES
Your KANE458s uses a standard Micro USB connector for charging
(KANE part No: USB1).
For best results turn off your analyser then connect your charger – the
charging indicator illuminates and turns off when charging finishes.
Your first charge should be for 8 hours continuously – thereafter NiMH
batteries can be topped up at any time, even for short periods.
If the analysers batteries discharge & the analyser enters a ‘low power
shut down’ a 1 hour charge will provide approx 2 hours continuous use.
BATTERY DISPOSAL
Always dispose of depleted batteries using approved disposal methods
that protect the environment.
