74 • Replacing or Recharging the Batteries EAGLE 2 Operator’s Manual
Recharging the Ni-MH Batteries
CAUTION: Use with Ni-MH battery p/n 49-1330RK. Charge only with RKI
charger model 49-2175RK, 49-2176RK, or 49-2177RK. Use of
other rechargeable batteries or chargers or charging of other
rechargeable batteries in the EAGLE 2 will void the warranty.
WARNING: Do not plug the charger cable into a battery pack that
contains alkaline batteries. Do not attempt to charge alkaline
batteries.
The charging module can either be used with an AC adapter or a vehicle plug
DC adapter. Both adapters plug into the module which then plugs into the
EAGLE 2.
1. Plug the power adapter into either an AC outlet or into a vehicle outlet
depending on which charger is being used.
2. Make sure the switch on the module is set to “BATT. CHARGER”.
3. Make sure the EAGLE 2 is off.
4. Make sure the adapter and module are connected.
5. Insert the module’s round plug into the EAGLE 2’s charging jack as
shown in Figure 18 below.
NOTE: The battery pack does not need to be attached to the EAGLE 2 case
in order to charge. It may be charged separately. This allows a spare
battery pack to be charged while the EAGLE 2 is in use.
