These  programs  are  only  suitable  for  charging  and  discharging  Lithium  batteries  with  a 
nominal voltage of 3.3V, 3.6V and 3.7V per cell. These batteries need to adopt different 
charge  technique  is  termed  a  constant  voltage(CV)  and  constant  current(CC)  method. 
The  charge  current  varies  according  to  the  battery  capacity  and  performance.  The  final 
voltage of charge process is also very important; it should be precisely matched with the 
charade voltage of the battery. They are 4.2V for LiPo, 4.1V for Lilo, and 3.6 V for LiFe. 
The charge current and nominal voltage as for cell count set on the charge program must 
always be correct for the battery to be charged.
When you are willing to alter the parameter value in the program, press Start/Enter key to 
make  it  blink  then  change  the  value  with  INC  or  DEC  key.  The  value  will  be  stored  by 
pressing Start/Enter key once.

Charging Lithium battery at balance mode

This function is for balancing the voltage of Lithium-polymer battery cells while charging.
In the balance mode, the battery needs to have a balance lead to connect to the battery's
power lead to the output of charger.
In  this  mode,  the  charging  process  will  be  different  from  ordinary  charging  mode.  The 
internal processor of the charger will monitor the voltages of each cell of the battery pack 
and controls charging current that is feeding to each cell to normalise the voltage.
Note:  We  recommends  charging  lithium  batteries  with  a  balance  lead  in  the  balance 
mode only.

Charging of Lithium Battery

This charging mode is for charging Li-Po/Ion/Fe battery without balance lead.
Note:  We  recommends  charging  lithium  batteries  with  a  balance  lead  in  the  balance 
mode only.
