3. Plug the AC/DC adapter into a wall socket, or insert
the car charging lead into a standard cigarette lighter
socket.

– NOTES –
- When fast charge is completed (80 minutes or less),
the unit is ready for use and will give almost full
battery life before recharging is necessary.
For optimum performance, however, it is
recommended that the top-off charge is allowed to
complete, when possible (a further 80 minutes)
- All types of rechargeable batteries will self discharge
over a period of weeks or months, so it is
recommended that charging is carried out shortly
before use
- Unlike older types of rechargeable batteries, it is not
necessary to fully discharge Nickel Metal Hydride
batteries, so they can be re-charged periodically
without any detrimental effect on their life
expectancy.
- To avoid overheating the batteries, do not repeatedly
re-start the charging sequence (by interrupting the
power)
- The batteries may become slightly warm during fast
charge, this is normal
- The AC/DC adapter will become warm in use
BATTERY LIFE EXPECTANCY
All types of rechargeable battery have a lower capacity
than the equivalent sized alkaline (non-rechargeable)
battery.
Using Nickel Metal Hydride batteries, you should
expect to re-charge the batteries roughly twice as
often as you would have to replace alkaline batteries.
So, for example, if you normally expect 1,000 hours
use from alkaline batteries, then you should expect to
perform a re-charge every 500 hours of use.
To avoid this problem, simply re-charge the batteries
before each session of use.
REPLACEMENT OF RECHARGEABLE -
BATTERIES
In normal use, it should be possible to recharge the
batteries many hundreds of times. If, however, you
notice that it is becoming necessary to recharge more
often, then the batteries may require replacement.
Replace only with Fox approved Nickel Metal Hydride
batteries. The use of any other type of battery may
invalidate your warranty.
