Due to different battery types, deviation between the value on the
indicator and the battery’s actual capacity exist. I n addition, when the
battery is c harging, the LCD displays the battery’s c harging voltage
(inc luding the voltage generated by the battery’s internal resistance).
When the battery is fully charged or not connected, the LCD displays
the no-load voltage of the battery.

Operation
Before c harging your batteries, c heck that the battery types are c ompatible
with the VLEVP2. T hen, determine the suitable charge c urrent and voltage
s ettings for them.
Remark
Damage c an occur to the batteries and c harger if incompatible batteries are
ins erted, or if improper c harge current and voltage settings are s elected.
Charging Batteries
1.
C onnect the supplied power adapter to the VLEVP2. The VLEVP2
performs a s elf-check, turning on two LEDs (red s tatus indicator).
During the s elf-check, the LCD displays the battery power indicator
and the s elected voltage. After about two s econds, the two indicators
turn green. T he c harger then s witches to s tandby mode, no battery
ic on will be displayed but the s elected voltage and default 0 .25 A
c harge current.
2.
Slide the voltage s etting s witch to c hoose the suitable voltage for your
battery. T he LCD will display the c orresponding selected voltage. For
example, if your battery’s nominal voltage is 3 .6 V / 3 .7 V, then you
s hould choose the 3.6 V voltage.
