Battery Maintenance
Rechargeable nickel-cadmium batteries
typically suffer from a memory effect that
gradually reduces their capacity over time.
After two or three months of use, if you
notice that the battery provides power for a
slightly shorter time on each charge, do the
following.
1. Leave the scanner on until the Iow
battery warning sounds and the [Iow
batt] indicator appears.
2. Recharge the battery for 14-16 hours to
ensure a full charge.
General
Use
.

the battery.

so that you hear the entry tone.
