When the orange standby light blinks
This indicates the Battery cannot be charged. Unplug the Charger and check the charging receptacle. If there
are any foreign objects, remove them with a soft dry cloth. If the orange light still blinks or there are no foreign
objects, there may be a problem with the battery or charger. Return to dealer for service.
③

1. Fully insert the Battery into the receptacle on the Charger until it sits securely on
the bottom.
2. Charging will start automatically and will be indicated by the red charging light.
3. Charging time is approximately 25 minutes. This will vary by temperature and
source voltage.
4. For batteries those are at low temperatures (5
°
C (41
°
F) or lower) or batteries that
have not been used for extended periods, charging time must be extended longer.
When charging at low temperatures, the red charging light will flash every 2.5
seconds.
Regarding tying times per charge, a brand-new battery ties approximately 400 times per charge. The tying
times per charge will be decreased gradually by repeated re-charge until the Battery becomes unusable. The
tying times per charge depend on temperature and the Battery condition.
Tips for maximum Battery life
①
If you repeatedly charge the Battery before fully using it, it will memorize an additional charging capacity
as its maximum charge. This phenomenon is called “Memory Effect”. If this happens, the Battery’s
capacity will be decreased, even if it is fully charged. In order to prevent the memory effect, charge the
battery only after the tying speed slows down considerably.
②
Use two Battery packs alternately.
To extend Battery life, alternate between the two batteries provided.
