Take care only to charge the lithium ion
battery supplied with the lithium ion charging
unit (USB charger cable) also supplied.
If you attempt to recharge the battery with any
other lithium ion battery charger or any other
type of charger, this may result in serious
damage.
You can recharge the rechargeable battery
with the respective USB charger cable from a
USB port of a computer:
• Connect the USB charger cable with the
USB port of a computer . The LED on the
USB charger cable lights green and indi-
cates that the charger is correctly connect-
ed to the computer. Place the rechargeable
battery in the charging cradle on the USB
cable . The LED on the USB charger ca-
ble lights red to indicate that the battery is
being charged.The USB charger cable is so
designed that reversed polarity is not
possible.
• It lasts about 90 minutes to recharge a dis-
charged (NOT a deep-discharged) battery.
When the battery is fully charged, the LED
display on the USB charger cable lights
green again.
Note: when delivered, the lithium ion re-
chargeable battery contained is already
part-charged, so the first charging opera-
tion will not last so long.
Always recharge the battery after use to
prevent its becoming deep discharged.
After use, the battery must be allowed to
cool down for at least 20 minutes before it
can be fully recharged. Failure to observe
thispause may damage the battery. Re-
charge the battery occasionally (suggest-
ed every 2–3 months).
Failure to treat the battery as described
above can lead to its becoming defective.
