Use this charger ONLY with the AC adapter (and car lighter cord if supplied) included in the package.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Connect the barrel plug end of the AC adapter (or car lighter cord) into the rear end of the charger and the
opposite end into any standard AC wall outlet (or the cigarette lighter receptacle of a vehicle with a 12V battery, if
the car lighter cord is supplied). All three LEDs on this charger will light up quickly to indicate the power is
connected properly.
2. When inserting batteries into the charger, refer to the embossed
diagram inside each battery slot. Insert the batteries into the charger
with the correct direction of polarity. To protect the user and batteries,
the charger will NOT charge the batteries if they are placed into the
charger with reversed polarity.
3. There are two separate charging channels built into this fast charger.
Each channel quick-charges two AA or AAA batteries with a series
connection.
4. The 2-color LED above the letter “A” is the charging indicator for the
pair of AA/AAA batteries on the left. The 2-color LED above the letter
“B” is the charging indicator for the pair of AA/AAA batteries on the
right. (

Fig.1)
5.
When
two batteries are inserted into a charging channel, the LED will
appear RED and charging will begin. As soon as the batteries are fully
charged, the LED indicator will turn GREEN.
6. If the LED indicator turns RED and flashes, the batteries may be short-circuited or faulty. Remove the batteries
and insert them into the charging slot again. If the LED still flashes RED, the batteries should be replaced.
7. After the batteries are fully charged, the charger will automatically switch to trickle charge mode to protect your
batteries from over-charging and to maintain the batteries at maximum capacity for use at any time.
8. The two charging channels in this charger can work independently or together, resulting in eight different battery
charging configurations.
