Discharging rechargeable batteries
The Discharging rechargeable batteries function can only
be used with Ni-MH batteries.
The Discharging rechargeable batteries function should
not be used with alkaline batteries as it will completely
drain the battery charge.
Use the Discharging rechargeable batteries function in
the following situations:
• When the batteries only last for a short time after being
charged normally
• When the batteries have not been used for a long period
• When you purchase new Ni-MH batteries
Do not use the Discharging rechargeable batteries
function while using the AC power adapter. In these
situations, the Ni-MH batteries will not be discharged due
to the external power supply.
To discharge rechargeable batteries:
