CHARGING
1.
Only use the Bayco battery pack bases and charging platforms.
2.
Plug the charger platform into the power source using the proper cord
:
120V AC
wall plug or the
12V DC
auto
adapter plug. Only charge the pack between 50ºF and 105ºF.
3.
Simply plug the lamp or the platform into the proper power source
.
4.
Do not allow anything to cover the lamp or platform during recharging
.
5.
To use the recharging platform, turn the handle battery pack upside down and away from you, and press
the tabs into the locking cradles.
You cannot make contact unless the pack is upside down and facing away
from you. Insert the handle pack down until it won’t go any further. Do not try to
twist or force
the battery pack onto
the charging platform.
6.
The
red
indicator light will come on either the lamp or the platform when the pack is properly inserted on
the platform
, and it will stay on until the pack is fully charged. The total time needed to recharge the pack will vary,
depending upon how charged the batteries are when you start. Even totally charged packs will charge for about 8
minutes before the red light goes off and the green light comes on.
7.
The
green
light will come on when the battery pack is fully charged
. The time required to recharge will be
between 20 and 140 minutes, but will average about 100 minutes. The
green
light indicates that the unit is not
being charged.
8.
Don’t try to recharge a lamp or a battery pack that is already hot
. When recharging a unit or a platform pack
that has just been used or a pack that has been in direct sunlight or other hot area for a while, let the pack cool
down before you recharge it.
9.
Both the lamp and the charging platform will heat up while charging
, but especially during the last 20 or 30
minutes of the charge. Both will cool down when the green light comes on.
10.
Remove the battery pack from the platform when the
green
light comes on
. The battery pack is completely
safe when mounted on the platform, but charging stops when the green light comes on.
11.
Be sure to unplug the lamp or the charging platform from the power source when you’ve finished charging
.
When you charge a new battery pack or a pack that has not been used for a long period of time, it may not accept a full
charge. This is normal and does not indicate a problem. Fully discharge the battery pack and then recharge it a couple of
times, and this will correct the condition.
NOTE THAT THIS UNIT MUST ONLY USE A 12Vdc FLUORESCENT UV BI-PIN BULB.
