1-3 X2S: Requirements
The X2S ships from the factory with an 11.1V Lithium Ion Battery Pack/Charger Kit. The battery
pack will need to be charged fully before use in order to get the best performance.

Installing the Battery Pack in the X2S
1. Access the battery compartment by removing the door on the back of the X2S. Once
the door is removed, locate the power wire that is inside the battery compartment. It
will have a white, plastic connector on the end.
2. Connect the battery pack to the power wire and place the battery pack into the X2S.
3. Reinstall the battery cover.
1-4 Charging the X2S
Your X2S game call comes with an 11.1V 5200mAh lithium ion battery pack and compatible
charger. In order to charge the battery pack, you will have to install the battery into the caller
by following the steps in Section 1-3. However, you will want to leave the battery cover off of
the caller in order to vent any heat associated with a charging battery. Failure to do so could
result in the collection of excess heat which can potentially have harmful effects on overall
battery life and damaging effects on the electronics. Any damage associated with an
overheated battery pack is not covered under the warranty.
Once you have the battery installed, make sure your caller is turned off and any accessories
(decoy, external speaker, USB cable) are disconnected from the unit. You can now plug your
charger into the charge jack on the back of the caller and connect the other end to a 120V AC
wall plug. At the end of the charger, you will notice a glowing red light. This means the battery
pack is charging. The light will turn green once the battery is fully charged. It takes roughly 6
hours to charge a fully-depleted battery pack.
WARNING
Never attach an unapproved or a non-FOXPRO® charger to your X2S! Damages
caused by plugging unapproved charging devices into your X2S will not be covered
by warranty.
Never connect your X2S to an unregulated 12V system (i.e. automotive systems,
high current power supplies, etc.) Serious damage will occur which is not covered
by the warranty. The charge jack is intended only for FOXPRO® chargers.
Do not mix battery types! For example: never use NiMH rechargeable batteries in
conjunction with non-rechargeable alkaline batteries.
GENERAL PRECAUTIONS FOR CHARGING
Never attempt to charge batteries that are not intended to be recharged! This
includes both Zinc Carbon and alkaline cells. The resulting damage can be serious
and will not be covered by the warranty. For maximum charge efficiency, we
recommend charging your X2S in temperatures ranging from 40°F to 85°F (5°C to
30°C).

10
Disconnect any/all accessory devices that may be attached to the X2S prior to
charging. This includes external speakers, auxiliary devices, and USB cables.
Make sure that the rechargeable battery pack is installed in the X2S properly.
Connect the approved FOXPRO charger to the charger jack on the X2S and attach
the transformer to the appropriate outlet.
Remember that NiMH batteries self-discharge about 1% per day.
Do not leave charging batteries unattended.
Remove batteries from battery holder when caller will not be used for prolonged
periods to help prevent deep discharge.
Recharge your batteries periodically—even when not in use—to prevent deep
discharge.
