2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The TOA IR-310BC is a dedicated battery charger for the IR-310M Infrared Wireless Microphone.
It employs a quick charging system for nickel metal hydride (NiMH) battery, allowing up to an
infrared wireless microphone to be fully charged within 3 hours.
3. HANDLING PRECAUTIONS
• Since the supplied power cord is designed for use specifically with the IR-310BC charger, do not
use it with equipment other than the IR-310BC.
• Use the IR-310BC in locations where an ambient temperature ranges from 0 to 40 ºC (32 to 104 ºF).
• Charge the IR-200BT battery before using it.
• If an infrared wireless microphone containing an IR-200BT battery has been stored for a long
period of time, it is recommended that the microphone be charged before use.
• Avoid using the charger in locations subject to strong vibrations, as the resulting poor electrical
contact may prevent correct charging.
• Do not frequently insert and remove the microphone from the charger during charging, as this
could reduce the number of times that the IR-200BT can be effectively charged and discharged.
• Rechargeable batteries are consumables and do not last indefinitely. If the battery operating time
becomes extremely short even when it has been fully charged, the battery has reached the end
of its life and must be replaced. Be sure to replace the battery with one designated for use with
the microphone (IR-200BT).
Tip: Under normal use conditions, the battery can cycle through approximately 500 charges and
discharges, after which it will usually need to be replaced.
• When cleaning the case, be sure to first unplug the power supply plug from the AC outlet, then
wipe with a soft dry cloth. If it gets very dirty, use the soft cloth slightly moistened in neutral
cleanser. Never use benzene, thinner, alcohol or chemically processed towels, as these may
damage the charger’s components and parts.
• Clean the charging terminals regularly using a dry cotton swab, paying attention not to bend
them applying excessive power (to the direction which the terminal cannot move). Dirty or bent
terminals can cause poor electrical contact and cause batteries to be charged incorrectly.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following

FCC Compliance
Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates,
uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with
the instructions, may cause harmful interference with radio communications. However, there is
no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does
cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of
the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/television technician for help.
