Inserting Batteries
The SDC 2300 comes standard with a Lithium-
Ion battery. Insert the battery with the arrows
pointing towards the detector and the battery
charge socket facing outwards. Close the latch
to secure the battery.
The Lithium-Ion battery cannot be charged
while inserted in the SDC 2300 battery
compartment.
Four alkaline C cell batteries can be used to
power the SDC 2300. Only use high quality
alkaline or rechargeable batteries. Minelab
recommends that only rechargeable batteries
with a capacity of 4000 mAh or greater be
used. Rechargeable batteries have specific
charge/discharge maintenance requirements,
which should be strictly followed to ensure
maximum battery life.
Tips:
• Always ensure that your rechargeable
batteries are at full charge.
• Only use high quality batteries.
The battery compartment is located at the
rear of the detector. To open the compartment,
twist the knob in a counter-clockwise direction,
and then pull the door back as shown.
