Battery life indications
Figure 3.4
Visual indication The battery life indicator appears on all of the
Explorer detect screens. The battery will be fully shaded at
maximum battery charge. When this shaded area nears the
bottom, the detector will begin to sound its low battery warning.
Audio indication When the alkaline or NiMH batteries
approach the point at which they do not supply enough power to
operate the Explorer II, a falling extended chord is emitted from the
speaker (or headphones). When this low battery warning is heard,
there will be only a few minutes of life left in the batteries. It is
recommended that the batteries be replaced or recharged as soon
as possible to avoid missing any targets. When the battery symbol
is completely empty, the detector will sound an extended dropping
tune and display a message immediately before turning itself off.
Notes supporting performance figures
Alkaline batteries will power the Explorer II for up to 14 hours of
constant use. The NiMH 1600 battery pack will power the detector
for up to 12.5 hours of constant use and the NiMH 1800 battery
pack for 14 hours. Battery performance is charted in Chapter 7:
User Info.
NOTE Unlike Nickel Cadmium batteries, the NiMH battery
pack DOES NOT have to be flattened to be recharged.
Whenever the detector has been unused for a lengthy period,
recharge the battery pack to ensure full performance. There
is no limit to the time the battery pack can be left on charge.
You are now ready to proceed to Chapter 4: Control Panel.
