Replacing ‘AA’ Batteries:
1 Slide the lid of the battery pack in the
direction of the arrow to open.
2 Place eight high quality AA cell alkaline
batteries into the battery pack, ensuring
that the + and – terminals are aligned as
indicated on the label.
3 Slide the battery pack lid closed until it
‘clicks’ into place.
High quality alkaline batteries are
recommended for optimum detection
time. Rechargeable alkaline, NiMH or NiCad
AA batteries may be used but must be
removed and recharged separately. Check
tment of rechargeable batteries prior to
purchase, as some do not comply with
standard size requirements.
– Please note the following:
– Do not use rechargeable Lithium Ion
batteries with your Safari. They may
damage the detector and void your
warranty. Rechargeable Lithium Ion
batteries will give a combined voltage
above 13V and therefore cannot be used
with Safari.
– Do not leave drained AA batteries in the
detector as they can leak.
– The optional rechargeable battery packs
will not be damaged if left on the charger
for more than 22 hours.
– The battery chargers will not recharge
rechargeable alkaline or NiCad AA batteries.
– Using a non-Minelab charger with the
battery pack may damage it and will void
the product warranty.
– Unlike Nickel Cadmium batteries, the NiMH
battery pack DOES NOT need to be drained
of all power before being recharged.
– Do not charge the battery at temperatures
above 45°C (113°F).
– Do not charge the battery at temperatures
below 0°C (32°F).
– Do not leave the battery exposed to very
hot conditions (e.g. on the dashboard or
rear parcel shelf of your car) or very
cold conditions.
