Inserting A Battery In The Single Battery Charger
8.5.1 Inserting A Battery In The Single Battery Charger
•
Insert the DC power plug into the charger. Plug the pronged end of the
power cable into an AC outlet.
•
Install the battery, aligning the contacts on the battery with the contacts in
the battery charge well.
8.5.2 Battery Charge Duration
It can take up to 4 hours to fully charge a battery. The single battery charger stops
applying power to the battery when it is fully charged – there is no risk of
overcharge if the battery remains in the charge well. The 75% charge indicator is
handy if you need a quick recharge – a quick charge often takes less than one hour.
8.5.3 Charge Indicators – The LED
The LED on the top of the charger indicates battery charge progress.
