If you feel the battery’s voltage is
not correctly identified:
• Remove the battery pack from
the charger and make sure
both the battery pack’s and
the charger’s contacts are
clean.
• Mount the battery pack again
and re-adjust the charger’s
contacts (if necessary) to
make sure there is a good
connection between the
charger and the battery pack.
Repeat this procedure until the
charger properly identifies the
battery pack.
3. While the battery pack is charg-
ing, the CHARGE indicators light
steadily to indicate the corre-
sponding battery pack’s charge.
Note: When the battery pack’s
voltage is too low or the battery
pack is damaged, the condi-
tioner/charger could incorrectly
indicate the battery pack’s initial
condition. For this reason, let the
battery pack recharge for about
10 minutes before reading the
CHARGE indicators.
4. When the battery pack is fully
charged (the red indicator lights
steadily), the conditioner/
charger beeps three times (two
short and one long beep).
After you finish charging a recharge-
able battery pack, disconnect the
power cord from the power source
first, then dismount the battery pack
from the conditioner/charger.
Conditioning a Battery Pack
To prevent your battery pack from
losing its ability to fully recharge, you
must condition it (by completely dis-
charging it) about once every 10
times you recharge it.
Note: You do not need to condition a
Lead-Acid or Nickel Metal-Hydride
rechargeable battery pack.
1. Mount/connect the battery pack
on the conditioner/charger.
2. Connect power. The conditioner/
charger sounds one short and
one long beep.
