If the battery is installed in the unit and the unit is connected to AC power (See “AC
power” on the previous page.), it automatically charges, even if the unit is in use.
While the battery charges, the battery charger light (See page 8.) glows yellow, and
when it is fully charged, the light glows green. (If the battery charger light glows red,
a charging failure has occurred. Check connections and try again.)
