Safety Precautions
The precautionary information that appears in this manual is for
ensuring that the product is used safely and for preventing injury to you
and other people and damage to equipment.
It is all important for ensuring safety and so be sure to read it thoroughly
before using the product and observe it during use.
Warning Indications
DANGER:
Impending danger is expected that
might result in death or serious injury.
WARNING:
There is an expected risk that might
result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION:
There is an expected risk of moderate
injury or property damage.
DANGER
Misuse might cause electric shock, generation of heat,
fire, or rupturing, which will result in burns, serious
injury or blindness.
• Never use the QCA-W5 for charging devices other than the NI-W5
Nickel metal-hydride battery. Also, never use the QCA-W5 for
devices other than the MP-W5P.
• Never connect an AC adapter other than the exclusive
RC60G-12D AC adapter (provided) to the QCA-W5.
• Do not disassemble or modify the QCA-W5 and RC60G-12D.
• Do not insert metal objects inside the product body.
• Do not leave the product near infants.
• Do not immerse the product in water or allow it to get wet.
• If you notice heat generation or abnormal odors, immediately
disconnect the plug from the AC power outlet.
• Do not place heavy objects on the QCA-W5 or RC60G-12D, or
subject them to dropping or other impact.
WARNING
Misuse might cause electric shock, generation of heat,
fire, or rupturing, which will result in burns, injury or
blindness.
• When connecting or disconnecting the MP-W5P, be sure to do so
by holding the connector.
• Do not connect to an electronic type transformer.
• Do not charge a short-circuited NI-W5.
• Do not use the QCA-W5 near objects that generate heat or block
heat discharge.
• Insert each of the connectors firmly as far as possible.
CAUTION
Misuse might cause moderate injury
or physical damage.
• Connect connectors correctly.
• Charge indoors within a temperature range of 5 to 35°C.
• Do not charge or store in humid or dusty locations.
• When not charging, be sure to disconnect the RC60G-12D from
the AC power outlet.

Handling Method
(1)
When connected as shown in the figure on the left, charging is
started and the red LED flashes.
When charging is completed, the red LED stops flashing and the
green LED lights up.
・
When the NI-W5 is installed in the MP-W5P and then
the QCA-W5 is connected, AC drive is enabled while charging the
NI-W5.
・
When the QCA-W5 is connected to the MP-W5P without the NI-W5
installed, AC drive is enabled.
・
When a dry cell is installed in the MP-W5P and then the QCA-W5 is
connected, AC drive is enabled.
In this case, AC drive is enabled even when a dry cell type
secondary battery is installed. However, the secondary battery is not
charged.
* The RC60G-12D AC adapter for the QCA-W5 cannot be directly
connected to the MP-W5P. Be sure to connect it as shown in the
figure above.
* Although the RC60G-12D supports power supplies in countries other
than Japan, its attached power plug is only for use in Japan. When
using the RC60G-12D in a country other than Japan, provide a power
plug suitable for the country's specifications.
(2)
If the red LED is lit even with the QCA-W5 connected, charging is
not possible since the battery temperature at the start of charging is
out-of-range. In this case, charging will start automatically as soon
as the battery temperature returns to within the battery temperature
range. The appropriate charging temperature range is 5 to 35
°
C.
* Charging will stop midway if the battery temperature falls out of the
temperature range 0 to 60°C. In this case, too, the red LED will light,
and charging will start automatically as soon as the battery
temperature returns to within the battery temperature range.
(3)
When both red and green LEDs are flashing, an error has occurred.
If the cause of the error is unknown, contact your Sibata agent.
(4)
The simple battery voltage check can be performed by pressing the
button on the left of the LEDs.
When both red and green LEDs light after pressing the button, the
voltage is 8.6 V or more, and you can judge that the battery is about
80% charged.
When the red LED is lit and the green LED is flashing,
the voltage is less than 8.6 V, which means that the battery must be
charged.
* In a fully charged state (with the green LED lit), this function cannot
be used.
