Chapter 2: Introducing the DPM 

Recharging batteries 

The DPM can be operated with the rechargable Philips NiMH batteries 
LFH 9144. For recharging these batteries, either use the DPM Docking 
Station 9110 or the Philips power supply LFH 9145. 

For more information on recharging the batteries with the DPM Docking 
Station 9110, refer to the documentation delivered with the product. 

To recharge the batteries (fast recharge) with the Philips power supply 
LFH 9145, do the following: 

1.  Connect the Philips power supply LFH 9145 to the mains power supply. 

2.  Deactivate the DPM via the Lock/Hold switch; this starts the recharging 

process. 

Important

: The DPM can become quite warm during fast recharging. 

The recharging process is indicated on the DPM display with these alternating 
symbols: 

 and 

 

When recharging is finished, only the symbol for full battery power is displayed: 

 

Note

: When working with standard rechargable batteries, the DPM only 

displays the symbol for 80% battery power (

) even if the batteries have 

been fully recharged. The symbol for 100% battery power (

) is only 

displayed when completely new standard batteries (not rechargable) are 
inserted or when the DPM is run from the mains power supply.
