Installing batteries in the transmitter
Remove the transmitter battery cover and insert four AA alkaline cells (not
included) taking care to observe the correct polarity. Re-t the battery cover
You can use rechargeable batteries in the KA-6 transmitter. Ensure that
you maintain the correct polarity. If using rechargeable batteries, they may
be charged using a suitable, compatible charger and the factory-installed
charging socket on the right-hand side of the transmitter. While individual
rechargeable batteries can be used in the battery box, we recommend using
a welded pack that connects to the factory-installed socket in the battery
compartment. Simply remove the upper battery springs before installing the
battery pack.
WARNING: Do not attempt to charge non-rechargeable batteries. Never mix
rechargeable batteries with non-rechargeable alkaline batteries. Do not mix
old and new batteries. Do not fast charge batteries when installed in the
transmitter as this may lead to overheating which can result in damage to the
batteries and the transmitter and even result in re.
Turning on the KA-6 transmitter
