Charging the Battery

Prior to initial use, the HH3 battery should be fully charged. The battery charge cycle may
take up to two hours.

Charge the battery as follows:

•

Connect the charger DC socket to the HH3 battery charger port (refer Figure 1).

•

Connect the AC plug to a suitable power supply and switch on power.

The device will automatically start and charging will be displayed. Testing is not available
during charging.
When the battery is fully charged, the battery condition indicator on the TFT Graphics
Display will display five bars (refer Figure 4).

Figure 4 - Battery Condition Indicator

Recharge the battery when the battery condition indicator shows one bar to ensure testing
will not be interrupted by a flat battery. The device cannot be used for testing during
charging but can be used for accessing Records (refer Section 4).

CAUTION

The battery in the HH3 device is a Li-ION battery. As such it should not be tampered with

in anyway. Should any problems occur that are related to the battery, contact your local

Alcolizer representative for advice (1300 789 908).

Only use the battery charger supplied with the Alcolizer supplied kit. Use of non Alcolizer

battery charges could damage the device and render it inoperative.
