CHARGING TIME GUIDELINES
Although charging time varies depending on residual battery capacity and external
temperature, if the battery has been exhausted, it generally takes approximately 4
hours (Rear carrier type)/3.5 hours (Down tube type) until one battery capacity indi-
cator lamp flashes. If the battery pack enters standby mode while charging,
charging time will increase by an equal amount. * If charging after a long period of
disuse, the charging time will be lengthened depending on the battery status.
However, note that if the battery capacity indicator lamps do not flash in fault pat-
tern (See “Reading the charging status”), there is no malfunction.
TIP
Even if charging starts normally, charging might be suspended to protect the battery
if the battery temperature or ambient temperature becomes too high or too low. In
this case, the battery may not have sufficiently charged. Check the battery’s residual
capacity and recharge if necessary.
