Replacing (rechargeable) batteries MRU-10 is powered by four AA alkaline LR6 batteries or rechargeable batteries of NiMH type. The (rechargeable) batteries are placed in the compartment at the bottom of the enclosure. The de- vice is not equipped with an internal battery charger. Rechargeable batteries must be recharged in an external charger.
- Do not charge or use the batteries in extreme temperatures. Extreme temperatures reduce the life- time of batteries and rechargeable batteries . Avoid placing devices powered by rechargeable batter- ies in very hot environments. The nominal working temperature must be absolutely observed. MRU-10 – USER MANUAL...
Worn-out electronic equipment should be sent to a collection point in accordance with the law of waste electrical and electronic equipment. Before the equipment is sent to a collection point, do not dismantle any elements. Observe local regulations concerning disposal of packages, waste batteries and accumulators. MRU-10 – USER MANUAL...
