RECHARGEABLE BATTERY KIT
OPTIONAL ACCESSORY
For applications where the AN-Mini/MiniVox PA system is used frequently, the RC-30
rechargeable battery kit is available. This kit includes 10 rechargeable NiMH batteries and an
AC charging adapter. When fully charged, the batteries provide approximately 10 - 12 hours of
operation. New batteries must be charged for at least 6 hours prior to first use.
USING THE RECHARGEABLE BATTERY KIT (RC-30)
1. Install the 10 rechargeable NiMH batteries into the unit. The battery compartment is double sided.
2. Insert the charger plug into the Power Input Jack labeled DC IN
3. Plug the AC adapter into a power outlet for 4-6 hours to fully charge
CYCLING THE BATTERIES
For extended battery life, we recommend you fully charge the batteries once each month during periods of
infrequent use. Always fully recharge batteries before storing.
CAUTION: NEVER recharge other types of batteries. Doing so can result in battery explosion.
Use only rechargeable Nickel-Metal Hydride (NiMH) batteries.
NOTE: PA System CAN Be Used While Charging!
