Recharging the main battery pack

2 - 4
Dirty contacts will cause intermittent malfunctions of
aurora . Before you refit a battery pack, check that the
Duet
contacts are clean and, if necessary, brush any deposits
clear using a cloth or tissue. Keep spare battery packs in
the carrying case when not in use. The battery packs are
factory-sealed and must not be opened.
To refit the battery pack, gently slide it into the unit,
contacts first. The correct end of the battery to insert first
is rounded on one edge and flat on the other edge. The
flat edge should line up with the flat side of aurora
Firmly secure the cover, ensuring the battery pack release
is firmly engaged.
Do not short circuit battery contacts.
1. Check that the battery pack is completely
discharged. All Nickel-Cadmium cells exhibit a
'memory'. This means that if a partially discharged
battery is recharged, some of the capacity of the
battery is lost. We recommend that battery packs
are discharged completely before recharging.
It is also possible to operate aurora
external power source. Simply remove the battery
pack as described in Replacing the Battery Pack
above, and secure the cover. Store the unused
battery pack in the carrying case.
2. Plug the adaptor/charger into the DC input socket.
aurora can be switched on and used while the
Duet
battery pack is being recharged, if required.
Note:
You will find a diagram of the aurora
communications ports and connectors, showing the
location of the external DC supply, in Chapter 3.
