We recommend that you use this system only when necessary, as
prolonged use will reduce the life expectancy of the battery, due
to the fact that this method can only charge the battery to
approx. 50% of its capacity.
NOTE:

maintain the battery in a fully charged state at all times.
NOTE:
If charging does not take place, check the green LED on the
adapter. Ensure all connections are clean and free of grease etc.
