Phase I
– Initial Charge
All 3 LED’s flashing in sequence from
MED
(left) to
MAX
(right). If the battery is low, this will
be the first charge phase. With high capacity batteries, this phase can sometimes be the
longest of the 3 phases. Similarly, with some low capacity batteries and batteries reaching
the end of their life, this phase can be very short.

When the battery is first connected, the LED’s may instantly indicate
MED, HI
or
MAX
charge depending on the charge status of the battery. The process will continue normally
from that point forward.

It is normal for the charger, AC adapter, or the battery to become warm during
charging.
Phase II
– MED Charge
The
MED
LED is on continuously and the other
LED’s are flashing in sequence. At this point
the battery is typically about 50% charged. Some very small capacity batteries (650mAh)
and worn out batteries can be as low as 10% charged.

Phase III
– HI Charge
The

LED’s are on and the
MAX
LED is flashing. At this point the battery is
typically about 70% charged.

All three LED’s are on at the same time. Charging has completed and the battery is fully
charged. It is recommended to remove the battery at this time.

Error Condition
– Charge Terminated
If the battery is removed before a complete charge has been reached,
the charger will
continue indicating the last complete charging phase for up to 1 minute.
After that
time, an “Error” indication will appear on the LED’s, shown by the
MED
and
MAX
LED’s
coming on together while the
HI
LED is off.
