The optional
FBA-37
Battery Case allows operation of the
VR-160
using three “AA” size
alkaline batteries.
When installing batteries, insert the (–) end first, then press in the (+) end so the battery
snaps into place. Always replace all three batteries at the same
time, paying attention to the polarity indicated inside the case.
The
FBA-37
must not be used with rechargeable cells. The
FBA-
37
does not contain the thermal and over-current protection cir-
cuits (provided in the
FNB-82LI
Lithium-Ion Battery Pack)
required when utilizing Ni-Cd and Ni-MH cells.
Important Note:
1) The FBA-37 is designed for use only with AA-type Alka-
line cells.
2) If you do not use the VR-160 for a long time, remove the alkaline batteries from the
FBA-37, as battery leakage could cause damage to the VR-160 and FBA-37.
3) Never connect the external DC power supply to the VR-160, when the FBA-37 Bat-
tery Pack is installed in the VR-160.
