Pre-charging a Lithium battery
If the b.111cry is over-discharged and the voltage is 100 low then m the Normal charge or Fast charge modes the charger will,
notify the user o
f
pre-charging with a low current(IOOmA). This helps to increase the battery voltage
to
the wnhin the
allowable range for normal charging. The under can set the pre-chargmg time in the
Lithium Check tim�
screen 111 the

"Storage" charge/discharge a Lithium battery
This mode is for charging/discharging a Lithium battery that is not to be used for an extended period. The program
determines whether to charge or discharge the battery based on the configured target voltage and the measured initial
voltage of the battery. The nominal target storage voltage depends on the type of Lithium battery: 3.7SV/ce11 for Lilo,
3.85V/cell
f
or Li Po and 3.3V /cell
f
or Li Fe. !
f
at the start the battery voltage exceeds the target storage voltage the program
will start to discharge rather than charge.
