Plug into standard (110-120v 50/60 Hz) wall outlet. Charge for 18 continuous hours to charge a
dead battery.

Battery may be charged after partial discharge without negatively affecting overall battery
memory (unlike Ni-Cad cells).
6.

charging is complete remove the handle and charger from outlet. For longest service, do not
leave AC Charging Module plugged into a power outlet without a handle attached.
7.
Slide sleeve back over prongs. The Lock Button will click when prongs are fully hidden.
8.
Remove AC Charging Module from the Battery Section if desired.
NOTE: The battery section is not shipped fully charged. For maximum performance charge the battery
section for 12 - 16 hours when battery section is new or after a long period of inactivity.
LOW BATTERY INDICATOR
1.
The Low Battery Indicator will illuminate several minutes before handle shuts off depending on
the age of the battery (Figure 1).

Figure 3
3.
Squeeze the arms of the Battery Removal Tool together, to obtain a grip around the Chrome
Ring.
4.
While squeezing the arms of the tool together, start to turn the tool in a CW direction (when
viewed from the top). This will unthread the Battery Section from the Rheostat Section. NOTE:
only the Chrome Ring turns.
Replacing a New Battery Section

The cleaning of all Welch Allyn power handles can be easily accomplished by wiping the external
surface with a cloth dampened with a mild detergent and water solution, 70% isopropyl alcohol, or a
10% bleach solution (by volume). Do not immerse.
NOTE: Excess solution entering the assembly could damage internal components. Use caution to
ensure cloth is not saturated with solution.
