Your scanner uses four AA
batteries (not supplied) for power.
You can use either the supplied
non-rechargeable battery holder
(black), or the supplied
rechargeable battery holder
(yellow) to install the batteries.

If you install the rechargeable
battery holder, you can operate
the scanner and recharge the re-
chargeable batteries at the same
time. See “Charging
Rechargeable Batteries” on
Page 8.
For the best performance and
longest life, we recommend
RadioShack batteries.
