Care & Troubleshooting Tips
• Wipe the charger with a clean dry cloth. Keeping the metal contacts clean will also
help maintain performance.
• Make sure that the unit is properly plugged into the wall.
• If the LED does not flash to indicate that the battery is charging, the battery may
be improperly inserted or defective, or there may be a short circuit.
• The charging time will vary depending on the type and capacity of your batteries.
Please refer to the charging table on the following page for the appropriate
charging time.
• Correctly insert the batteries and avoid reversing the +/- polarities.
• The charger is intended for use with Ni-MH batteries only. Charging other battery
types may cause explosions, breakage, personal injury or property damage.

Instructions for the Ni-MH Rechargeable Batteries
It is necessary to charge Ni-MH rechargeable batteries before the first use.
The contact surface of the batteries and the charger must always be kept clean.
• Do not expose the batteries to water.
• Do not heat the batteries or dispose of them in fire.
• Do not tear off the jacket label.
• Do not disassemble or reassemble the batteries.
• Do not short-circuit the batteries. To avoid short-circuiting, keep the batteries
away from all metal objects (e.g. coins, hair-pins, keys, etc.).
If the batteries are stored without use for 6 months or longer, they may require sever-
al cycles of charging and discharging in order to attain their original charge capacity.
