units are equipped with
rechargeable Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) batteries.
NiMH batteries are not memory sensitive and do not
require depletion before recharging.
The batteries come partially charged from the factory.

given a full charge (about 12 hours) before initial use.
Remember - Always keep batteries away from
flammable substances (especially when charging).
When storing the unit for long periods, remember to
regularly give the batteries a full charge (12 hours)
and test your unit once every 4 to 6 weeks.
