NOTICE
Reducing or interrupting charging current
Towards the end of the charging process, the charging current might be gradually
reduced or interrupted for short periods of time. This behaviour is known as "toggling"
and helps balancing the cells, thus enhancing the capacity of the batteries.
Disconnecting charger from mains power
The charger is powered through a mains lead. Disconnect the charger from the mains power supply, if:
–
The charger is not regularly in use.
–
The charging electronics are to be reset, e.g. following a fault message.
