Mio-RCC Rechargeable Upgrade Kit and Charging Base
Mio Remote Charging Base
The Mio series of remotes are complemented either with a Mio-RCC charging 
base (FG147-02) or the Mio-RCC rechargeable upgrade kit (FG147-03K). One 
charging base, a new back housing and a Mio-RBP rechargeable lithium ion 
battery (FG147-10) are included with the rechargeable upgrade kit. The charging 
base upgrade kit transforms the Mio R-1 and Mio R-2 into a rechargeable 
device.

the bottom of the battery enclosure on the bottom housing.
10. Replace the battery door and slide to lock it in place.
11. Begin charging the battery.
Charging The Mio Remote with the Charging Base
The Mio remotes receive power for charging from a charging base. To recharge 
the battery in a Mio remote:
1. Connect the terminal end of the power supply to the bottom external 
power port on the Mio remote charging base. See FIG. 2 for the location.
2. Route the cable through the provided channel so that it comes out the 
side of the base.
3. Connect the power cord to an external power source.
4. Place the bottom of the Mio remote into the charging base so the contacts 
on the device are on top of the charging contacts inside the charging 
base. The Power LED on the Mio remote blinks red to indicate it is 
charging and illuminates solid red when it is done. Full charge cycle for a 
depleted battery is approximately 3 hours.
Avoid placing units equipped with AAA batteries in the charging base.
Changing Battery Modes (Mio R-1 and R-2)
Configuration Mode
The Configuration Mode allows you to set the battery type on the Mio R-1 and 
R-2 remotes. To enter Configuration Mode:
1. Press and hold the STOP button and the INPUT button simultaneously. 
The two buttons must be pressed within 0.1 seconds of each other and 
held down for 2 seconds. The device indicates that you are now in 
Configuration Mode. See below for available modes.
Battery Type
2. Pressing button "6" on the remote toggles the battery type between 
Normal and Recharge. The display indicates the selected type. The type 
of battery dictates the battery type to be selected.
3. Press the EXIT key when you are finished.
Note: Your settings will not be lost in the event your batteries die or are  
removed.
