Instruction Manual Page 5
CAUTION
Only use 6 volt batteries as recommended by Minelab.
Never use a 12 volt battery as this will damage the detector. This
damage is not covered by warranty.
6. Auxiliary Parts
6.1 Battery
The 6 volt rechargeable battery supplied with your SD2100v2 can be used
for approximately 14 to 15 hours after being fully charged. When the battery
charge drops to a low level, the detector will indicate that the battery needs
to be recharged by flashing the Battery Low light. The detector may become
unstable when the charge drops to a low level.
6.2 Battery Chargers
Two different kinds of battery chargers (mains and 12 volt car) are supplied
with the SD2100v2 to facilitate charging the battery under various conditions.
The supplied battery, unlike NiCads, does not suffer from memory problems
and may be recharged at any time during its discharge cycle. It is very
important to fully charge the battery before storage. DO NOT leave a battery
fully discharged for longer than one day as this could cause permanent
damage.
6.2.1 Charging the Battery
a) Turn the SD2100v2 Off before disconnecting the battery.
b) Disconnect the battery cable from the control box and plug into the
appropriate charger. While it is being charged, the battery must be
kept in an upright position.
6.2.2 Mains Charger
a) Charge the battery from the local mains (AC) power.
