General Charging Notes
Fans:
The charger is designed to control its cooling fans for efficient
operation. Consequentially, it is normal for the fans to start and stop when
maintaining a fully charged battery. Keep the area near the charger clear
of obstructions to allow the fans to operate efficiently. NOTE: The charger
has thermal protection, and it will shut down if it gets too hot.
Voltage:
The voltage displayed during charging is the charging voltage
and is usually higher than the battery’s resting voltage.
CALCULATING CHARGE TIME

chart.
NR means that the charger setting is NOT RECOMMENDED.
Find your battery’s rating on the chart below and note the charge time
given for each charger setting. The times given are for batteries with a 50
percent charge prior to recharging. Add more time for severely discharged
batteries.
