Perform Initial Tasks
When you receive your FC-600, perform the tasks outlined in this
section before first use.
Install the Battery Pack and SD Card
The FC-600 uses a rechargeable Li-Ion battery pack. Install and
charge the battery pack as follows:
1. The battery compartment is accessed from the back of the
handheld. Loosen the four captive screws holding the battery
compartment door in place using a #1 Phillips screwdriver.
Remove the door. You do not need to remove the hand strap.
CAUTION: The FC-600 is not sealed against water and dust
when the battery door is not installed.
2. If you are using a micro SD card for additional memory, you
can install it now before you install the battery pack or at
another time. See more details about installing an SD card, see
“Data Storage Options” on page 18.
3. Place the Li-Ion battery pack in the compartment. Make sure
the symbols on the battery pack label align with the symbols
inside the compartment.
