Using Nickel-Cadmium batteries
When using Nickel-Cadmium batteries (NiCd, size AA 1.2 V/600mA) use
the mains adapter as a charger.
1
Open the cover of the battery compartment on the bottom of the device.
2
Insert two batteries, observing the polarity marked on the bottom of the
battery compartment.
3
Plug the mains adapter into the »
