Installing the rechargeable battery

If the rechargeable Ni-MH battery (9.6 V, 1500 mAh) is installed and fully charged, the PT-9600 can
be used away from a power source, and is capable of printing labels from two 1 1/2" (36mm) wide
tape cassettes. Fully charging the battery takes 2 1/2 hours.
1 Remove the battery compartment cover on the bottom of the machine by pressing in the release
tab and pulling off the cover.
2 Place the battery securely in the battery compartment with the wires from the rechargeable bat-
tery on the right side.
3 Insert the plug on the wires into the connector in the battery compartment.
4 Attach the battery compartment cover by inserting the three tabs on the cover into the matching
slots at the edge of the compartment, then pushing down firmly on the cover until it snaps into
place.

tery.

Recharging the battery

The Ni-MH battery starts recharging as soon as the PT-9600 is plugged into an electrical outlet with
the AC adaptor. The P-touch can be used normally while the battery is recharging. In addition, the
recharging indicator lights up while the battery is being recharged, and the indicator goes off when
recharging is finished.
