RECHARGING THE BATTERY PACK
MIDLAND BASE CAMP is equipped for using a 6V NiMH rechargeable battery pack which can be
recharged using an AC wall adapter (included) or a DC adapter (included).
Initial charge time is 12 hours with a charge time of 8/10 hours thereafter.
For maximum battery life, we recommend charging the battery pack when the BASE CAMP is off
and the low battery icon comes on.
To recharge the battery pack you need to connect the socket of the wall adaptor to a mains power
socket and insert the jack of the wall adaptor into the charging jack of the BASE CAMP.
Remove MIDLAND BASE CAMP from the charger only when the charge time expires.
You can also charge the rechargeable NiMH battery pack using the Dynamo crank. To charge using
the Dynamo Crank rotate rapidly the Dynamo Crank handle clockwise or counter-clockwise.
