Step 1 Preparing the power supply
Notes
•Prevent metallic objects from coming into contact with the metal parts of the DC plug
of the AC power adaptor. This may cause a short-circuit, damaging the AC power
adaptor.
•Keep the battery pack dry.
•When the battery pack is not to be used for a long time, charge the battery pack fully,
and then use it until it fully discharges again. Do this once a year. Keep the battery
pack in a cool place.

cases
– The battery pack is not installed correctly.
– Something is wrong with the battery pack.
If the power may go off although the battery remaining indicator indicates that
the battery pack has enough power to operate

indicator is correct.
