NOTE
The recharging time may vary according to the ambient
temperature and power source voltage.
4. Disconnect the charger’s power cord from the
receptacle.
5. Hold the charger
fi
rmly and pull out the battery.
NOTE
Be sure to pull out the battery from the charger after
use, and then keep it.
Regarding electric discharge in case of new
batteries, etc.
As the internal chemical substance of new batteries
and batteries that have not been used for an extended
period is not activated, the electric discharge might be
low when using them the
fi
rst and second time. This is a
temporary phenomenon, and normal time required for
recharging will be restored by recharging the batteries
2–3 times.
