POWERING THE SCANNER You can power the scanner using alkaline (ALK) nonrechargeable batteries (not supplied) or the included Nickel Metal-Hydride (Ni-MH) rechargeable batteries. [Uniden provides a USB cable to charge the Ni-MH batteries on initial installation and to recharge them through your computer (or through a power adapter that provides USB charge power (not included, but available at many retailers).] Inside the battery compartment is a switch to set the unit to either ALK or Ni-MH. Warning! Non-rechargeable batteries can get hot or burst if you try to recharge them. Cautions: • When flashes in the display and the scanner beeps every 15 seconds, recharge or replace the batteries. • Use only fresh batteries of the required size and recommended type. • Always remove old or weak batteries. Batteries can leak chemicals that destroy electronic circuits. • Do not mix old and new batteries, different types of batteries (standard, alkaline, or rechargeable), or rechargeable batteries of different capacities. Installing Non-Rechargeable Batteries 1. Make sure the power is turned off. 2. Slide the battery compartment cover off. 3. Use a pointed object such as a ballpoint pen to set the battery selection switch inside the compartment to ALK. 23
