1-3 Fusion: Requirements
The Fusion and Fusion remote control are shipped without batteries
installed. The Fusion digital game call requires 8 ‘AA’ batteries. You
may use alkaline batteries to get started, but it is recommended that
you use high-capacity rechargeable NiMH (nickel metal hydride)
batteries or one of FOXPRO’s optional rechargeable battery packs. Visit
our website to view the entire line of recharging options for the Fusion.
Installing batteries in the Fusion
1. Access the battery compartment by removing the door on the
back of the Fusion. After the door has been removed, locate the
black plastic battery tray. The tray is double-sided, providing
spaces for 8 ‘AA’ batteries. The tray is connected to a power
cable inside of the Fusion. You may unplug this cable and
remove the tray from the compartment during battery
installation.
2. Place the batteries into each battery cavity while observing
polarity as indicated.

3. Reconnect the power cable to the tray (if disconnected) and
place the tray back into the compartment.
