d) Recharge Rechargeable Battery Again ("RE-PEAK")
The charger automatically ends charging of NiMH and NiCd rechargeable batteries when the rechargeable battery is
fully charged. Recognition of when the rechargeable battery is fully charged is according to the delta-U procedure.
The rechargeable battery programme "RE-PEAK" performs this recognition again. This way, you can not only
ensure that the rechargeable battery is truly fully charged, you can also check how well the rechargeable battery can
take quick charging.
First, charge the rechargeable battery completely (see chapter 12. b) or chapter 12. c). Then start the rechargeable
battery programme "RE-PEAK".
Proceed as follows:
• Set the rechargeable battery type as described in chapter 12. a) (NiMH or
NiCd) and select the rechargeable battery programme "RE-PEAK".
The value in the lower right means the number of the recognition pro-
cesses.
Use the buttons "INC" and "DEC" to select a different rechargeable battery programme; use the button
"BATT. TYPE/STOP" to return to the main menu.
• When the number of recognition processes for the delta-U charging procedure is to be changed, briefly push the
button "START/ENTER". The number flashes.
• Use the buttons "INC" and "DEC" to set the number of recognition process.
• Briefly push the "START/ENTER" button to confirm the setting. The display stops flashing.
• Start the rechargeable battery programme "RE-PEAK" by pushing the button "START/ENTER" for 3 seconds.
If the settings are wrong, or if the charger detects a problem, a warning signal is emitted and the appropriate
information is shown in the display. You can stop the warning signal by pressing the "BATT. TYPE/STOP"
button. The charger then returns to the previous configuration menu.
The display shows, e.g., the following data while charging:
The rechargeable battery type is shown in the upper left ("NiMH" = NiMH
rechargeable battery), the upper middle shows the charging current and
the upper right the current rechargeable battery voltage.
The lower left shows the current rechargeable battery programme ("RPC"
= "RE-PEAK"), the middle the elapsed charging time and the charged
capacity in mAh is displayed to the right of this.
• Once the charging process has been completed, an audio signal is emitted (if it was not turned off).
If you wish to cancel the charging process, push the "BATT. TYPE/STOP" button.
