c) Cycle program (“CYCLE”)
To test or refresh batteries, you can perform up to 5 cycles in sequence. The two possible
combinations are “Charge/Discharge” (“CHG>DCHG”) and “Discharge/Charge”
(“DCHG>CHG”).
• After you have selected the “NiMH” or “NiCd” program in the main menu with the button
“TYPE/STOP” and confirmed this with the button “ENTER/START”, you can select the
cycle programme using the button “INC” or “DEC” (illustration shows NiMH battery):
• If you want to switch the charge/discharge sequence or set the cycle number, press the
button “ENTER/START”. The text for the sequence now blinks in the bottom line of the
display.
Change it using the buttons “INC” and “DEC”.
First the battery is charged and then discharged in the left image. In the right image, this
sequence is reversed, meaning first the battery is discharged and then charged.
• Confirm the selection by pressing the “ENTER/START” button.
• Afterwards the cycle count blinks, meaning how often the presently set sequence of
charge/discharge or discharge/charge operations is performed. You can set a value from
1 to 5 cycles with the buttons “INC” or “DEC”. Confirm your entry as usual with the
buttons “ENTER/START”.
• To start the cycle, keep the “ENTER/START” button pressed (approx. 3 seconds).
• If the settings are wrong, or if the charger detects a problem, an audio signal is emitted
and the appropriate information is shown on the display.
• Once the cycle is completed, an audio signal is emitted.

If you wish to terminate the cycle beforehand, press the “TYPE/STOP” button.
