Operating the MultiRAE Plus
Charging the Battery Pack
To charge the battery pack plug the transformer supplied with the
monitor into the power jack on the monitor.
When a Li-Ion battery pack is installed, charging automatically begins.
The LED appears red during charging, and once the battery is fully
charged, the LED turns green. The display also indicates the charge
status. A completely drained battery pack charges to full capacity in
less than 10 hours. When the “Bat” message appears on the LCD, the
battery pack needs to be recharged.
NOTE
: A fully charged battery pack will switch to trickle charge to
maintain battery life. Repeatedly turning the power to the transformer
on and off will reset the charge and possibly burn out the battery.
To change the battery pack or to use the alkaline battery adapter,
refer
to Replacing the Battery Pack or Emergency Alkaline Battery Adapter
on page 32.
If the MultiRAE Plus is to be stored more than 2 weeks off the charger, it
is recommended to remove the Li-ion battery.
